Thanks, Curlgirl. 

Yeah, I have a copy in my library.  I was joking about the name, i.e. ditzy character.

So good to hear that your mother is responding well to her treatment.

I like your ditzy girl back story! Grin

Godyssy, thank you.  Now I need to work on my Pirate lingo.

Trisha, thank you.  Anne Bonnie was such a formidable character in history I didn't want to copy her, so I'm going the comedic route.  I wonder if they'll have name tags at this party.

I heard from my mom today, a blood clot has appeared in her right thigh.  Its the only one, but strange that she should have one at all with all of the intensive blood thinners she's been on for over a year.  I hope its not a bad indicator of future problems.

Being ill, I finally got around to doing a bit of S&D yesterday.  I was quite overdue.  Found some hairs split 3 and 4 times on the same hair!  Eeep.  All gone now though.

I wanted to say I was glad to read about your mom's improvements but of course I'm concerned about this blood cloth and hope this is a passing thing.  I hope you get well soon.  I'm excited about your part.  I've had those crazy splits too.  Haven't seen them since my last cut in Dec.

I'm very glad to hear your mom's doing better and hope the blood clot is a minor and temporary effect.  Still keeping my fingers crossed for you and yours.

I've not been in a writing mood lately, looks like for almost a month.   Shocked

I guess I'm still not in much of a mood to write.  Or maybe I just need to eat something.

I went to the pirate party.  Its a 3 hour drive from where we live.  We got there, ate lunch at a Greek restaurant and I got sick.  Tummy troubles.  I wound up being 2.5 hours late.  I would have won the Best Female Costume contest, they said.  Oh, well.
The Motel 6 we stayed at had a horrible bed and pillows.  I had a really bad stiff neck from it.

Yesterday I had a CT scan of my head.  I've been having weird sensations in my left arm and leg for several days.  It has made sleeping nearly impossible.  I should have the results of the scan and blood work early next week.

I've been washing my hair about once a week, twice if I get itchy.  I saw yesterday that I have some splits that need trimming, but not too many.  I am overdue for a facial and a deep conditioning treatment.

Worried too.  So I'll be keeping an eye on your CT update.

The update:
My CT scan is normal.  My blood work came back overall good-white blood cell count was slightly elevated and my kidney function slightly decreased.  She (the doc) said I might have been a little dehydrated and so fluids are recommended.  I'm supposed to go back in two weeks for re-testing.

Thank you, Curlgirl64 & Drear, for your support.  Definitely good news.

I've had a very busy week!!  Started voice lessons again, will be working on some jazz.  Since I'm not preparing for any auditions right now, I'm just going to focus on what is fun for me.

Went to Dim Sum w/friends today-super yum and good company=nice time.

Booked our Paris tickets today!!!  I hope I can sleep tonight!!

I've been so lazy with my deep conditioning treatments!!  I just haven't been up to the big production that accompanies it.  Its been too hot, I guess.  I have a trim sometime in July.  I switched back to DevaCurl AnGel and I think I didn't use enough product.  Looks like I need to use more of it than the Kinky Curly Curling Custard, or the KCCC just holds my curl better.  I think I'll wait until the AnGel is gone before buying more KCCC and Knot Today.  They work great, I just want to rotate products.

I just got a Mason Pearson Rake comb.  The shower detangler I have been using isn't as smooth.  I haven't tried it on my wet hair yet, but it worked well on my thick dry hair.  If I don't use a comb on my wet hair, my styling product doesn't get evenly distributed.

My mom's hair is getting long.  I think its about 4" now.  Its grown back curly and she doesn't know how to deal with it.  She was complaining that it looks like Richard Simmons' hair.  I asked her if she's been brushing her hair, which of course she had.  LOL, I've explained to her what a bad idea that is and have shared what I've learned from the Deva Curl method.  I think I'm going to have to get her the book.  She has "chemo brain" and her memory isn't that reliable so I expect she'll forget what I said.  I sure wish she could travel so she could come out here and get a proper curly girl haircut.
