Fsll Friday
the weather is nice today....high 60's, a bit of rain here and there, but all in all nice.
I have been fighting off this chest cold for a couple days now and it seems to be not too bad, the herbals that the acupuncturist gave me seem to be really helping to move everything out of my chest.....thank goodness, when I realized it was settling in my chest I was terrified, I've never had a chest cold before, I always had head colds and sinus infections, so I was really worried. I am not running a fever and no body aches so hopefully if i keep up with the herbals and vitamins and juicing I should be good.
I have to go for a lung function test on monday, so we'll see how that goes. the TB tests results were good so the rhuemy's office should be calling to set up the infusion schedule soon, or maybe I will call them on monday and make sure they got the report.
I have been trying to plant some tulip bulbs all day today.....everytime i go out to do it, the clouds gather and it sprinkles....I go in to wait it out and the clouds part....I think someone is trying to tell me something....lol I got a few in, the rest will have to wait......maybe Hubby can help do some of the digging.....it really gets me winded. i was hoping to move a couple of shrubs this weekend too, I hope he didn't return the rototiller to his brother I think we might need it again. I need to dig up some allium bulbs from the front garden, I want to enjoy them in the back....nobody sees them in the front.
We took the hammock down and packed it away, I guess it's official, fall is here
I made the mistake of colouring my hair the other day, I am regretting it, but it should only take a week or two to grow out enough that i can shave it off again......I let someone's comment get to me. i was in a department store checking out and the cashier asked me if i wanted the seniors discount, she must have noticed the look of shock on my face and tried to minimize it by saying the have an early discount age of 55.....I am 45, I was in shock....I came home and indignantly told my Hubby....his reaction....did you take the discount?....lol put it all in prespective I guess but it still hurt my feelings So now I have to live with colour......it took 2 different colours too, I didn't take into consideration all the white and picked a colour that i thought was nice (an auburn) LOL....I looked like a troll.....flaming red hair, I had to run to walmart with that hair and buy another colour (this time a dark brown) to tone it down.....I should have left well enough alone.....I learned my lesson.
We are supposed to go my BIL for my SIL surprise 50th bday tomorrow, I hope I feel up to it, Hubby can always go alone, it's his side of the family anyway....and SiL didn't make it to my 40th or 45th.....well enough whining.
except.....got a call from my mother last night, now she wants me to come over to go over some paperwork for her will and financials......I know she is only trying to reel me back in.....she can never leave things as they are, it's all or nothing, at least she is leaving for florida soon and she can annoy her father for 5 months instead of me....I feel sorry for my grandfather but she is his kid....
okay done now....lol

i think i would have been shocked too, or if in a mood asked can i have that? is she very young? when i was young, if a person was over 30 i thought they all looked about the same. if they were 60 or 80 i thought they looked the same. lol. young people can\'t tell.
brown is nice. i use browns. i tried reds once too for around a year or six months and it never looked right. just something different.
You should never let ignornant comments get you down! YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL!! I hope I am as in such great shape and spirits as you are at 45... I side with your husband... take the discount!!! That\'s good you can still dye your hair.. I did it about 2 months ago and it was the biggest mistake ever!! Now I\'m practically bald! Clumps of hair came out! Good luck with your tulips!
Too bad your grandfather never raised her right. It would have saved you both some grief. How does he feel about her time down south? I hope the party is fun. You don\'t need her, but you could use a party.
LOL!! I died my hair a strawberry blond at one time (I\'m a brunette) and then got a perm. I looked like Little Orphan Annie!! My own daughter was frightened of me. She was 7 at the time. I use a temporary color now. I\'m waiting until more gray comes in before I stop doing it. Even at 57, I don\'t have that much. Anyway, hope you can enjoy your weekend, hon. God Bless, Jean
Got such pleasure out of your dye story, sorry. I feel so quilty but it hasn\'t stopped me from laughing!
I think you are gorgeous! I wish I had just a piece of your beauty.
As far as your SIL.....deep sigh....I have 3 of them. If I wasn\'t sick I\'d fake it :)
Hope you are feeling better and your test results are good.
Take good care
I read the other entry first. I\'m sorry the comment got to you and it probably would me, but I was thinking like your husband and the discount. I figure if people are that dumb, you deserve the discount. I think the salesperson needs to invest in a pair of glasses. Sheesh.
Mother, all I can do is wish you the very best. I just want to put a protective shield around you when you speak of her. That darn wand is still in the shop, think I should call the guy. lol I wish. I hope you remember whenever you are around her that you are a beautiful, strong and intelligent woman. Who is also a very good friend. You have stopped the cycle and that is a very powerful thing.
Much love to you,
Kim
