Pretty Squares from Kent / My hair story. SATURDAY UP-DATE Karins' Squares and Ruth Marie! Pop in and take a look!

Hi Everyone!

Just wishing you all a nice weekend.  I do hope the weekend turns out okay, it's so lovely today again. So warm out in my Garden.

For those of you who were kind enough to leave comments about my 'perm'.  I think I have just had a bad one this time. I rang up this morning and I have an appointment 9.00 am Monday morning, so hopefully I shall be happy. I know it's only hair, but it's amazing how a good style can make you feel so good.  I was really looking forward to having my hair permed, I always feel like a million dollars when I walk out. This time as she started (hope she's not reading...) I thought I've got a feeling her heart isn't in this today! I'm sure you know what I mean.  You can never guarantee that your  hair will be the exactly the same every time you go.  I went Tuesday morning and at the end of the first 3 hours, she said for some reason the crown part isn't curly at the back.  So....she re-did the crown part. But when she had finished that, all the bottom at the back was dead straight, and that was after the 4 1/4 hours.  I had quite an horrendous time.  She said to leave it for 48 hours so I washed it as soon as I possibly could, and it's still straight. It seems as though it hasn't got much curl in.  I rang up this morning as it was her day off yesterday and she said she wanted to spend time on it, so she said could I go in Monday morning at 9.00 am.  Well I would rather go in when she's got time to hopefully 'do it again'.

I have had a couple of perms over the years that haven't worked out and they've redone them and they've been okay. So fingers crossed. I sat down and cried yesterday morning after washing it. I don't know I was feeling so down it's amazing how hair bucks you up when it's done to your satisfaction.

It's rather silly I know getting so damn worked up about hair. But even at my age I do try to 'keep my standards up' I always say. Bless my Husband Mr. Twins for treating me.  It's his money too that pays for my hair and at around £60.00 or just a bit more! I have to get 'his' money's worth!  I love my Husband very much he's been such a wonderful Dad to our girls and indeed a wonderful Husband.  We celebrate our 28th Wedding Anniversary in June. I love him to bits....

Oh! dear I have got the downs still. I don't know why..... You have these days....I'll be okay once my hair is sorted I know I will. I was just so looking forward to being half decent and I'm disappointed.  But friends lets put things into perspective, it's only hair and nothing else. Thank goodness.  I'll get over it.

It's a good job I have my Blankets to cheer me up and I know that later on this afternoon I will be able to grab time to sit down and chill out with them.

Anyway, back to SIBOL businesss. Dear Laura sent me some Squares yesterday and I want to show them because they are so pretty.. I love the colours that she has used.  I'm so grateful to her.  She has just finished a wonderful Blanket and had these extra ones so she very kindly sent them to me for the SIBOL project.






Squares always cheer me up. I'm sure you will agree they are really pretty. Thank you Laura. Please visit her blog and have a good weekend everyone! I'll let you know how my hair turns out!

Thanks to all who have commented on my hair.  It certainly has given me a boost knowing that my friends feel the same way as me! Thank you.
