That's what my Nan always said. She was a hairdresser and when she'd cut my hair, with a razor, it would frigging hurt! Even today, when i went to a spa to get my hair cut, and she gave me a head massage, it hurt. The hair kept pulling and i guess my scalp is still more sensitive than I thought. Over the years i'd repeat what Nan would say as i'd rip eyebrows out with tweezers or hair off my legs with hot wax. Never mind. It was balanced by lovely pedicures and relaxing facials.
In the remaining weeks up to the wedding I've booked two facials, one on Easter Monday and one three weeks later. My poor homone poisoned face needs help and i want to glow as much as possible on the day. Or at least not be quite so spotty and red! I've booked another hair appointment to get my colour done about 2 weeks before the wedding and a trial for my wedding day hair style and makeup as well. The spa is more expensive than the normal hair salon I go to but it's handy for the wedding venue/hotel and they do know what they're doing when it comes to weddings. I don't want to do my own makeup on the day.
Don't think i need to take the inside dress to the tailor after all, i tried it on again and it doesn't feel as snug. Must have lost a little when I was sick the other week. Just need to be prudent and keep it off. I should also wear the shoes around the apartment a bit. They felt pretty good when I got them so they don't need to be stretched or broken in a lot but it wouldn't hurt to do it anyway.
G. kept going on about thinking he should get a pocket watch to go with his outfit (Victorian style frock coat!) until I had to finally tell him. Do. Not. Get. One. And forget we had this conversation! The one i ordered is in, too, so i will have to go get that on the weekend.
Taking the beer stein and the two pendants in for engraving tomorrow. Also need to pick up a birthday card and a retirement card. Oh, make that two birthday cards. One might even make it in time for her birthday. The other has already been missed. If we hadn't had two days off for the storm i would have had time to get it and mail it. Her birthday was Saturday. I did call at least.
I thought i might have to go to the walk in clinic to get a puffer for this lingering cough but it seems to be somewhat better today. Better than it was at least.
