Hi ladies,
Feeling a lot better today, I had a full nights sleep with no coughing, at long last. I was starting to feel like I a had a new baby again. DS2 kicked the cough, oh for a kids metabolism again. So this evening found DS2 and myself dancing around the kitchen table, bellowing the words to Chuck Berry's, 'My dind-a-ling'listen whilst making a papier mache volcano. I now have wallpaper paste in places a housewife does not want to think about, How the hell did I get the blob in my hair?
The 2 foot tall 3 foot wide volcano is now sitting on the rayburn hopefully drying out for tomorrow so that we can paint it, then comes the vinegar and bicarbonate of soda experiment.

I will be trying to get my hair done next week, Ive been trying to get it done since December. But I'm going crazy. Blonde base with Red, orange, blue, and purple I think. Or I might go for blonde base and Bright red tips all over. Or I may go for something crazy that you ladies can think up? I have layered hair maximum length is only just to the top of my shoulder, as I am a SAHM I don't have to obey the nice dress dictates of an office etc.

katylessbumpy · 31/01/2008 22:47

ooh blonde with lilac tips,wish i had the guts.go for it.
i've been trying to get my hair done since october but couldn't quite manage it,poorly dc.mine and my sisters. so tonight has been great.ds2 said " i like your hair,it's nicer than that grey and black colour" .here's me thinking i'm a natural blonde

OP posts:
discoverlife · 31/01/2008 22:57

Are we talking Platignum blonde here or ash blonde or a more honey shaded one. I like the lilac tips one.

katylessbumpy · 31/01/2008 23:03

platinum,almost silverywhite would look amazing with lilac tips.

discoverlife · 31/01/2008 23:10

I think that may work with a shaggy hair do. I look terrible with straightened hair.

fedda · 31/01/2008 23:16

I can't believe it's February tomorrow. I must start being good.

katylessbumpy · 31/01/2008 23:16

do it! my hair is straight at the moment but trust me after i wash it it'll be back to it's usual slightly fuzzy self lol

OP posts:
discoverlife · 31/01/2008 23:27

My hair is straight already, its poker straight and thick and heavy. If I use straighteners it makes me look as if someone has removed half my hair. My DD thinks I look very stylish with staightened hair, but she's obsessed about her straighteners. I just don't think I look my me with straight hair. Now I can put any colour in it and have fun (have'nt used black yet, I think that would be too radical with green eyes).

katylessbumpy · 31/01/2008 23:30

definately white blonde and lilac and i want pictures

Ok. I will make an appointment for next week. But you are only getting the back of my head not the face. I do feel a bit 'risque' doing this as ATM I am feeling my age (44) and fat and frumpy. But that should wear off in the next week anyway as I get over this bug.

discoverlife · 31/01/2008 23:39

The word shouldn't have been Risque, as thats denotes an up side to the emotions, I think the word should have been worried (mutton dressed as lamb feeling).

susiecutiemincepies · 31/01/2008 23:49

evening all

Have had a hell of a day with Isobel. Don't think i'll be taking her to monkey music again. She just wont sit on my lap, and do anything that the others all do so nicely. She LOVES music, loves playing games like clapping, dancing etc to music. loves playing with drums, maracas and things like that, so I thought she would love it. She hates me trying to do these things with her in the class. so as it seems to cause me more stress than be fun, seems no point in going. such a shame.

went for lunch afterwards with my friend and her 2 DC. we had pizza. but, it was really really thin, and thats all I had. I've been really good other than that. sticking to slim fast, just dont seem to be losing anything. I dont understand whynot. I usually lose weight easily, just by cutting out or down on norty things. I've not had anything bad for ages. Doesn't make sense to me. I think i need to up the water again though for sure.

So today:
B Slimfast
L Pizza
T Slimfast
snacks one fresh juice of celery, courgette carrot and apple and ginger.

Hair sounds fab Katy, and discover life, I think you should go for it
I need a good hair cut again, always makes you feel better too. need to touch up the roots as well. I've never died my hair until end of last year. I have it the colour it goes naturally in the spring and summer, so hoping the roots will catch up in the spring and sumer anyway so i dont need to do it so often.
Hope you are all well ? isoble is getting another cold and cough. she's a notty wretch at the moment. Pulling my hair, and pinching SO much. She pulled a handful of hair out yesterday, it upset me so much, it hurt so much. did I already tell you this? sorry if I did!

Been on phone to DH, missing him alot today. more than usual. Had horrible dream about him last night, with someone else. Made me feel insecure all day. ridiculous, as I know its the last thing he'd do to me and Isobel. Anyway, you know how these things cloud your day sometimes. Do any of you ever have bad days after such dreams, or is it just me?

katylessbumpy · 31/01/2008 23:50

back of the head is good.you are not fat and frumpy.you are a great ,talented amazing person who is also a great mumand who will have fantastic hair next week and a figure to die for by the summer

OP posts:
discoverlife · 31/01/2008 23:55

LOL at the 'figure to die for' by summer. I am realistisc, a figure to die for within 2 years is acheivable, but by summer, Nah! I just want to need to buy a new wardrobe of smaller clothes by the summer, cant go on holiday with shorts that are falling down when I walk, can I?

discoverlife · 31/01/2008 23:57

Yes SCMP, I can end up having miserable days after dreams like that, or any of the strong ones to do with people i love. it seems to hang like a fog around you. A night sleep will see you better in the morning.

katylessbumpy · 01/02/2008 00:03

susie i have fallen out with my dh so many times after dreams.poor bloke never knows what he's done when he wakes up!
