Good Saturday Morning Ladies,
We ended up having a different day to what we planned, the girls went off to Cheltenham to shop for Paul's birthday, I wasn't feeling up to a big shopping trip so I stayed home with Paul, did a bit of much needed 'self care' , I'm not sure if anyone else loathes washing and drying their hair as much as I do, the washing isn't so bad but drying it is frustrating as holding the hairdryer above my head is really hard and painful, It's because my lower back is a mess, so holding my arms out and up hurts, I have real weakness too. I need one of those hairdryers my mum had, it was on a stand and had a hood, she just used to sit there while it dried, mind you she spent a while putting hair rollers in before hand. Anyway that's what i did yesterday morning, I did my hair, spent ages moisturising etc, something I usually rush through on a night time. It felt good afterwards, I felt 'put together ', when you spend most of your time you tend not to bother too much.🤣 I'm not sure if Paul even notices when I make an effort, he isn't one for remarking on things like that.
How lovely is the artwork of this reminder, the sentiment is a great reminder too, you should never feel that taking care of yourself in which ever form that takes is selfish. You have earned the right to have that time for yourself ❤️
The crafters saying did make me smile The reminder is a good one I don’t tend to moisturise my body and I’m lucky if my face gets a look in too sometimes! One reason why I have a short hair style is because I cannot be bothered with hair dryers and/or curlers Your flowers are gorgeous Lilian I hope the pain is easing Have you got physio to do
ReplyDeleteYour crystal art is beautiful Maria I have bought a little kit for Charlie to try when we’re on holiday with them Hoping he’ll enjoy it and will mean less screen time
We’re going to The Great Garden Fete at Hatfield House today We’ve had the tickets for ages
Take care everyone xx
Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteHave just written a longo message and it won't let me publish, very frustrating 😕. However I hope you all have a really nice Saturday and that you Lilian is feeling better. I love your garden flowers, beautiful colours.🥰 Regarding washing the hair that's ok but I do let it airdry most times. After menopause it's gone wavy but only using the straighteners when we going somewhere but not always. I must use moisturiser cream after shower, gets very itchy otherwise.
Funny how we see our work because I think this bike should have been a bit bigger to look good but sometimes you can't choose the size. It's not right of them to sell it but it's hit and miss. Thanks for liking my work. 😊
Take care and hugs to you all, Maria xxx
Hello all, well back again, pain is easing slightly, still finding doing the exercises very painful.
ReplyDeleteLove the saying, I’m always looking for my glue. The reminder is so true also.
Might have to leave my hair washing until after my clips come out.
I’m not very good at looking after my hair, so I keep it short also.
Love all your crystal work Maria, you must have very good eye sight.
Hope you are all keeping well. Lilian
