Henna Powder, reading and lack of chocolate…


I have bought some henna powder. I remember back in the early nineties I used henna to color my hair. It wasn’t grey then so I wonder how it will go. I know, all this obsession with hair is so unlike me. I wonder if the moon is in Leo or something, thus affecting my hair concern.
I have been continuing to enjoy my reading and have a pile of books that are distracting me from corrections. I really do find reading an effective way to cut off from stress. I love it.
I have ran out of chocolate tonight. I usually have a stash somewhere. The only chocolate in the house is Andy’s dark chocolate Bilby that he has hoarded since Easter. I want to eat it …. it might go off!! I won’t though because I respect others chocolate boundaries. I mean I couldn’t very well scoff the bilby down and then expect that my own stashes would remain safe. I mean it is a fragile trust we all have with our individual pockets of chocolate.

I really ought to be correcting……

Ooh I found the Jedi Series funny. Yep, these are the kinds of things I do with my time when I should be doing mounds of correction…… Oh but this is really funny. Watch it and cry.

Can’t say what happened to episode 2, but I promise, when I find it, I’ll bring it to your attention. Ahhh procrastination, such a lifelong habit, difficult to break.

Visiting Pa II

Pa is in hospital now. He has had some complications. His chemo is progressing well though, so that was good. I have visited him both days of the weekend and also another friend who is unwell at present. I feel really lucky to have my health right now.
Today I took the kids in to see him and as we were leaving he said to them he was so proud of them and they were a credit to him. Lucky it was on the way out because I got pretty teary after that. I hate seeing him in hospital. He is so positive though. He says he hasn’t had a moment’s pain, not even a headache and he praises the staff and the equipment, taking an interest in everyone and everything. I feel he is a real credit to me.
