Move Over Meryl

Hi C,


One of AJ's favorite songs is Old Mac Donald. So this is for AJ.

Love,

First Kiss. Was it worth it? Definitely!

Happy Valentines Day to all from Australia

Hi R and all
Valentines Day wishes to you.  I have included your post re First Kiss to fit in with the occasion.
Love from Clara
ps Do you remember your first kiss?

 "I just made it through the show (fashion) in the nick of time with a strange "scratchy" throat feeling. The next day I was in bed with the worst cold I have had in years. I know what you are thinking, over worked herself, not enough sleep etc. But actually, no that was not the case. A few days before I was babysitting little AJ who was sneezing. He's so sweet, so when he planted not one but two kisses on me, I knew right away what the consequences would be. Would I do it all over again? ABSOLUTELY. Was it worth it? POSITIVELY!"

Going grey gracefully?

As if?

Hi R
Wondering how your new red hair has changed your life. 
An article by Shonagh Walker in the Sunday Telegraph was headed 'Going grey gracefully'. 
She suggests that "In the past when a silver strand appeared, we raced to the colourist immediately.  Keeping up the colour on rapidly greying hair (I prefer 'silvering') is time consuming and expensive.  The natural solution is to let it be, well, natural." 
At least she is somewhat conditional and sensitive to those of us who are "just not ready to go there." (and I'm wondering how old you are, Shonagh?)
So then a few guys such as Emiliano Vitale from Sydney's E Salon, get up and say,"There is a swing towards embracing grey. It can be polished and flattering."
And then we get the list of the 'brave folks' who have taken the gigantic step - Dames Helen Mirren and Judi Dench.  Even younger celebs, including Pink, Kate Moss and Lady Gaga, are having silver threaded through their locks. 

The article then becomes practical and had some good suggestions as to  how you can overcome transition periods, regrowth  by 'reverse highlights to blend' etc

Will talk more on this subject.  In the meantime I seem to have some sort of scalp condition  which appears like scaley cradle cap, so I am very threatened that I may have to eventually face this decision!

In the Bag

Hi C,


You're feeling "dippy" and I'm in the bag, making bags that is. Made this fun school bag for AJ. It's big and roomy enough for all his stuff like his blankey and favorite stuffed animal. Little guy goes to skool 3 mornings a week to get play time with other children. If you email me some photos I'll make one for your little guy.

Love,


R
