Not sure how to start,but here goes!!!
Mar 6^th, 2006 at 12:44pm

Well,I never kept a diary when I was younger,but I guess as you get older you get wiser lol! Here's the first one!!
Up early with my birds(no,really I mean that) at the first hint of sunlight someone,I am not naming names,but someone starts chirping!!!! My cue to get up,feed the dog,pracitce my Pilates and Yoga and then the thrill of it......clean the bird cages!!!!!!! Ok it's not that bad. Then everyone gets fed and "out time" of their cages.
Now it's 8:30am and time get making the coffee and oatmeal.... Pass the Silk Soymilk,please:)

Hubby will sometimes help me, but my hair is long enough to measure myself.

Your length may determine whether you need help your not.

To measure, use a tailor's tape measure (not a metal tape measure!). Start at your hairline at the front, go over the top of your head and down to the longest strands. This would be your length. The important part of measuring is to be consistent in your method.

Thanks Trisha!

Ok,tada..ask for help and this is what you get Grin

I tried measuring my hair myself and I got 31 1/2 inches. I asked by boyfriend to "help" me measure and I got 32 inches!!! Either way it's along longer than I would have though!!! Yippee! I definately want it as long as I can. Maybe to where I can sit on it(yes,yes,I would be very careful not too) So here I am and I'll be consistant every month:)

Well today started out ok.....need I think that it would continue that way!!! I went to an orthepedic guy to find out if there could be anything that I could do to helpmy right leg move better. Most of it is my MS,but there are a few things to help. I 10:15am appt. lasted until almost 1pm when I walked out of his office. Talk about having "ants in your pants" and wanting to hurry and get out of some where that you're stuck in!!!lol
Anyway,in lieu of this today is my boyfriend's birthday and he'll be coming over. So it is a full day of docto'rs visits,visitor visits and anything else that pops up!!

Really wanted to play with the LL hairsticks I got. Well,maybe tonight..................

Today starts out much better than yesterday at least. Today is hairwashing and deep conditioning day. Add insult to injury it's also medicine day. Hmmmm,still preparing for the MS walk next month. My team is walking again,this is the 6year staight we're walking down by South Street Seaport,NYC. Hope it's better than the first year....it snowed while we were walking. What a cold mess it was that day!! Roll Eyes

Anway, I'm still trying to get all the stuff together to make special shirts for the team members to wear this year. We are known for wearing some crazy hats or shirts. The team is Kelly's MonSter Kicker's. (M and S capitalized for the disease and to also kick its *()*)(*() Grin

Hey Curlgirl! Glad to see you've decided to journal your hairgrowth journey!

I've been to South Street Seaport a few times, always on a bus trip though Tongue

. In fact, the last time we were there was because we went to see the Montel Williams show, his guest was Sylvia Brown (I almost said Sandra Brown!). It was pretty neat. I hope you have better weather this year for your MS walk, I know a few people myself battling with MS, what a strange affliction. I wish you all the best in your recovery and hairgrowth!

Boy oh boy it's close to 5pm est and I just got home. Went to Jersey today to be with an aunt who had to put her dog down on Monday. Very sad,Destiny was only 6 years old and faught her liver cancer like she was "Goliath" instead of "David". Very sad time since the other dog had to be put down last May due to old age and health issues. I'll try to be more upbeat here......
Weather was very very windy,I swear it almost blew me over a few times!!!! Grin

I think is was close to 70 today,very unusual for east coast right now.
Tomorrow is the MS conference in NYC. Starting at 9am-2p,m. Long day,lots of freebies and info.!!! Who doesn't love freebies?! Wink

Well,not much more to say right now,got lots to do since I wasn't here all day! Ciao for now!!

Reply #12 - Mar 10^th, 2006 at 7:56pm I also forgot......picked up the rest of the yarn and some hooks to finish the sweater I'm crocheting. It's boucle and sometimes a pain to deal with. The front and back are inished. I'll be doing the arms tonight while my birds are out playing,the dog is playing and I have the hockey game on.

I'm so impressed that you're crocheting a sweater. I love to crochet, but my short attention span usually limits me to buncovers and small stuffed animals. You'll have to post a pic when you're done.

Thanks you 13bodies. You know it's one day at a time when you loose a pet......
I've never crocheted things for the hair before,do tell. Maybe I try try to help you get past crocheting the beautiful small stuff. I've never done a sweater before and wouldn't you know it I follow their instructions for a petite and I run out of yarn and the front looks like it's for a football player!! lol go figure! If I ever figure out how to post a pic I'll show you and the group when it's done.
