Good Morning Cheerios!  Dusting off my stool and stooping in to chat a bit! 
Compared to where I was a year ago, i am doing very well!  Still dizzy and have muscle weakness in my legs.  Both conditions keep me tied to a walker but I get around well as long as I do not bend down for too long!  I think they call that a-dizzy blond! (Now turning grey!)
Have pt twice a week with homework to strengthen my legs and have another appointment on the 8th with the ent MD to explore the dizziness!

Am enjoying being home and being able to stay connected on line.  At the home, my device did not like the service saying it was not secure and kept shutting it down!

Paulie, your cabin sounds delightful?   While Lb has a squirrel nest, I have a house finch nesting on a ledge on the roof over my front door!  Been there awhile so I am hoping the eggs are viable!

All enjoy the day!

Hi! Whoa! My post turned out kinda long.

BrokenLug, Good tune. I'm listening as I'm posting with head bobbing and foot tapping.

LB, Maybe it was your pinkie. Good it's feeling a little better now.
True the saying goes "Things come in 3s." Don't count the things you had before. I don't know what number that puts you at after that but just tell yourself "You're done!" 
Good about signing your lease. Take that off your to-do list. Try not to stress. Things work out somehow.

Karen! Hi! Great seeing you here. Yepper your stool is always here for you. 

Excellent you're doing very well compared to a year ago. You made me chuckled about the dizzy blonde turning gray. (Not the dizzy part .. the turning gray part.) I'm still blonde .. thought about going gray but after color treatments I have some silver now too. LOL Staying blonde. 

I hope your device is secure for you now and stops that shutting down. Pain in the butt.
Thank you about the cabin. We're setting up inside and definitely enjoying it when there.

Cool about house finch above your door. Could they little ones maybe have fledged? I guess you would have seen and heard the little ones if the parents were feeding them.

Same with my front door wreath this year. House finch built a nest in wreath and laid 4 eggs while I was away a few days at cabin.
Got home and saw it! I left it alone because of the eggs. I was worried opening the front door though because of once they hatched and feedings and didn't want them fledging into the foyer. Well guess what .. when a family member came and opened door while walking inside it started parent bird and it flew into my house!! Funny and lucky thing is it flew into living room then down the hallway then into a bedroom!! I closed bedroom door ... opened the window .. then it flew outside. Whew! To prevent this from happening again I moved the wreath w/nest to the side of door. Parents didn't return so eggs became non-viable. Darn it.

You enjoy your day too!

Hi Puff .. Thanks Puff.

Hi Phyl

Well I better get some things done around here. Yesterday was 90 degrees. Today's to be 93. A/C is already on. This weekend and next week to return to mid-70s.

Very strange happening paulie.  For eons I dyed hair to make it onecolor instead of brown, ash, auburn, etc.  This was when hairdos involved hairpieces to make a crown of huge curls.  Hair pieces were not multicolored at the time.  Ergo, made one-color hair to match one-color wiglet.  Anyway - I digress.

At one point I said phooey - let the color go natural beautious ash gray (the color I had underneath.  Who knew?  And, now a new "natural" phenom - since I spend too much time outside if I'm doing my yard "stuff"  Good ole' sol is changing my color on me. . .It's changing my ashgray to white.  What the hay?

P

[karengramke]

I would not
 mind white!  I hate Grey!
Pauli, I make everyone come thru the garage and in the back door!  My neighbor, across the street had a nest in the wreath on the front door and she got some yellow crime scene tape and stretched it across the steps until all the babies fledged!

[paulie]

Puff, Wow you had ash gray underneath! That's a really pretty color combination together. People pay to have their hair dyed ash gray.

Hmmm I wonder why being outside (and in the sun a lot too I'm assuming) I wonder why it's turning to white? Interesting.

I have to ask .. what is sol .. "Good ole' sol"? I've been trying to come up with an abbreviated meaning. I hope when you tell me I don't smack my head and say "Oh! Duh!" lol

I don't want to deal with the dark roots in the grow out if I stopped. Did you have them?

Karen, Agreed white is pretty!

Good for you making everyone go thru garage and in back door! Thumbs up to that.

Awesome that your neighbor across the street used yellow crime scene tape!! If I tried that I think my family would wrap me up in it. LOL

LB, TGIF for you!

[Puff]

Who knew Paulie  Dad used to say he wasn't gray; he never called his grey.  It all should have been a clue to me.  Found out because of my laziness.  Had a cruise and no time to color - let my dang roots grow/show.  Noone mentioned/commented.  Took that as a sign and just let it grow.  Totally broke off any relationship with L'Oreal forever.

Sun does fade out a lot of the ash; kinda looks like streaks in some spots.  Outside now about 2 weeks has made a difference.  Could be the contrast of the scalp tan/sun red ??

Biggest difference/complaint has been the change of volume, body, fuzzy.  Less hair for sure.  Didn't know I had a scalp until about 65.  Never had issue of roots - just let it grow the way/color it wanted.  Just matched right in.

Come on somebody - back me up?  No roots, right?  Not white either, white is an older stage.  My neighbor friend let her hair grow out.  Not the same result/luck as I had.  Husband told her to go back to looking younger, better.  You could sign up for ATF and see if what I've said is true.  Now -- if I could pull another miracle and look thinner.

Two extra comments:  sol is the Spanish for sun.   teehee

Also, for tsk  Did you make a comment that this was the last of the C's you'd have   to worry about?  How's that happening?

P

[paulie]

Puff, I can't think of a better place and time to let roots begin to grow out than on a relaxing cruise! You broke off your relationship with L'Oreal while I'm still having one with the same.

Sun definitely affects hair color.

Oh my gosh you didn't know you had a scalp until about 65. You have me laughing.
Whoa to what your neighbor's husband said to her. She should have replied by telling him to suck in his gut! Men!
I'd love to sign up for ATF. Have wanted to for years. I was helping raise and watching my two youngest granddaughters back in 2011 for a number of years going forward. Now no time and $ going into cabin.
After a certain age I think most everyone wants a miracle with thinning hair, loss of hair lol and looking thinner. Weight likes to drop to the hips like other things drop. 

Thanks for the sol explanation. 

Okay .. long day and tired. Time to relax with adult beverage. Looking forward to it.

Wishing anyone who reads here a peaceful and restful night. SED

Cute cat! I used to have 3 cats and 2 dogs. They all got along really good together. Also at the same time 13 Zebra Finches. Once when 3 got out of their cages cats were flying through the air trying to get them!! LOL

Thanks for the hugs! What did I do to get them? 

[paulie]
