I have more than enough for my needs BUT I really WANT a landrover

Karmacat

Oh, thats interesting to me! I've never dyed my hair, and its now almost entirely grey - but, like last year, I'm seriously thinking (still) of dyeing it - it would need to be Herbatint, the only healthy dye around - but mine is so grey already, I'd have loads of comments when it suddenly went back to being a colour. And the comments I need to *deal* with would be from clients of course. Sigh ... but I admire you for actually making the appointment - let us know how it goes!

KC, thanks I would love to not have it dyed and that is partly my problem. I have had my hair coloured for so long. I recently allowed it to start growing out. There is though still a lot left to come out. Around my face is almost silver and I think that the lighter colour quite suits me. I am really scared of going blonde as I am naturally quite dark and always had darker colour. Although I did go caramel blonde once and it was quite nice. But that was a warm colour I imagine ash blonde to be quite cold. OH WELL I can always die it again if it is awful. Feel the Fear and all that.

When your life flashes before your eyes, make sure you've plenty to watch.

I came across this quote on a blog that I stumbled upon http://meanqueen-lifeaftermoney.blogspot.com/ and it resonated with me.

Change in plans for the hairdressers today, brought about because I am currently in the grips of one of my dizzy attacks. I am not convinced that the sight of me wandering through the village to the bus stop lurching from side to side and having an occasional fall to the ground would increase my standing in the local community. Couple that with several hours sitting in a chair having various potions heaped onto my head, hair pulled through a cap and the "artistic director" shoving my head from side to side and I dont think I would even make it as far as the bus stop on the way back without the police arresting me for being drunk and disorderly.

So I am sitting here in my fleecy dressing gown, big furry boot slippers and a cup of tea in hand. After I have the dizzy gremlins under control I will work out what I should do. I am due back in work tomorrow. Luckily I no longer need to go to Cardiff and can work from home. Problem is my computer is not working so I will need to go into town to get it up and running again. Another bus trip but hopefully the dizziness will have subsided by then.

That sounds nasty, cheri - do you know what causes it? Sorry you're missing out on your hairdressing appointment.

MrsMoo2U

Yes KC I have something called Menieres Disease. It can be quite nasty. It took 4 years to diagnose (that was 4 years ago) I have not had too many bouts over that time. I put it down to the fact that just before I was diagnosed my exoh left me and a lot of the stress I was under was suddenly lifted. I am trying to work out if the car accident has brought on the current bouts or something else. It has been building over the week and I have ignored it. Silly me. I may need to book an appointment at the Doctors. In the big scheme of things the hairdressers is not that important. More important to get myself fighting fit.

Oh I do remember you talking about that before, sorry .... its awful being dizzy, isn't it - I couldn't stand up properly for 3 days when I had a kidney infection, and I felt drunk lying down when I hadn't had anything - you have my sympathies with that.

Cheery_Daff

Oh cheri, that sounds awful! Poor you, and quite right to cancel the hairdressers, you don't want to be lurching about in all this ice and snow :eek: Hope you can get sorted with the docs. Sounds like you're much better off in your fleecy dressing gown! xx

MrsMoo2U

Well, I am often called dizzy by my friends but not quite in this sense. OH has just given me a lecture about not assuming that I know what is wrong with me. He is very lovely and thoughtful at times. KC that sounds dreadful with the kidney infection business. That is exactly how I feel - drunk when lying down. Brings back memories of good nights clubbing and lying in the bed at 3am thinking I wish the room would stay still.

Karmacat

Yep, it does, very unpleasant! How do you feel now?

MrsMoo2U

Thanks KC you are so thoughtful. I am still sitting on the sofa. Not moved all day well except to make cups of tea. I am not as dizzy at the moment but it comes in waves. Sent an email to work to say I wont be back in tomorrow. Tried to phone the doctors but they are on a training day so will have to try again tomorrow.
