Cured

Fetish's glucose levels came back a-okay this morning. This was after breakfast but no shot. The vet says this means she doesn't need insulin shots, just kept on the canned food (which she is finally eating regularly with enthusiasm). Yay! He said diabetic symptoms can come back, so I need to keep an eye out, but for now, tra-la-la, no more daily injections. That's the good.

Poor nottygypsy spent hours doing the henna indigo treatment on my hair last night and it didn't take at all. This morning when I looked, the indigo stain was non-existent, but at least I could see reddish roots. In the fluorescent light of the Wescoe bathrooms, though, I can see white roots. So boo, hiss. It's a good thing there's only two more weekends because I am so not going through that any more. Not worth it. It looks gorgeous and makes my hair feel wonderful (when it actually, you know, works), but the cost, the time, the tedium and the smell far outweigh the pretty.

My throat hurts again. My back is still achey. I am way tired. I need a vacation.

What do you think of the red in your dark hair?

If it was dark red I might be okay, but this sort of brassy orange is not.

I just finished an email to the info@mehandi folks and I hope to hear from them soon. I'm happy to keep doing your hair, and if they have any suggestions on how to better apply the indigo, I'll let you know.

Yay, I love our hair nights! (I don't think I'll need to do mine every 2 weeks though. ;)

According to my photo log, our last henna date was 9/10. So that's not quite a month, but certainly not two weeks!

After this time, I'll see how long I can go before doing it again. Love the oil idea too.

Can't believe how much my hair grew in less than a month!
