Great! I just mapquested from Ramona to the location of the restaurant in the north part of San Diego, and it says it's 34 minutes. If you're interested, please preregister/RSVP as described on the Bald Girls Do Lunch site. If you have any questions, let me know. I hope to see you there!

Oh, and note that there's going to be a headwear "swap". If you have any scarves, caps, hats, wraps that you don't wear, bring them and there may be something you'd like to trade.

Happy Holidays,

Hi Debbie,

Do you live anywhere near San Diego or Irvine? I just posted a notice on the California group about the upcoming Bald Girls Do Lunch events on Jan 3 and 4. I'd love to meet some other AW members. Please pass the word and let me know if you need any info.

All the best,
Mary

I paid $200, I got a lil discount.. I will tell you what I think when I get it...
How is your week going??

Hey Deb.. Okay so I bought an different wig today.. I actually went with Revlon. I have tried Revlon years ago.. but have stuck with Henry Margu..
BTW-Still havent messed with the other Heat Resistant one... I have spent way too much money on hair in the past two months!! YIKES!!!

Okay... Yes.. Dont even want to think about the high school thingy yet.. I will cry my eyes out.. I already know it... I cried soo hard at his pre-school graduation. (Seems like yesterday)

about my hair.. Okay~ you name it I have tried it...
Tried the hair Direct thing.. Yep, did not like it at all.. (But, its my opinion-some people love it)
I also have tried the real hair wigs- (Your right they are too hot)
My favorite is the snythetic wigs by Henry Margu with the half of the cap mono. It seems much cooler, and I can fix the hair any way I want. I put curlers in it sometimes and get it really curly or just let it straighten out. (These are my favorites)

Recently I have a huge black and white ball I am going to. They are doing the Old Hollywood theme~So, I have the entire black gown and lots of goodies to go with it all.. I wanted to get a long glamorous wig. So, I bought something new. Its made by Alan Eaton Collection. now check this out:
It is Heat Resistant which means, you can blow dry & use curling iron. The directions state they prefer you use hot curlers. (Crazy huh)
Well, I will be sure to let you know how it goes.. My event is not til August 16th. I have tried on, got it cut.. But, have not really playing with curling it yet!! I will keep you posted for sure.

So, what have you tried? what do you use??

The double digit bday-- thats cute!
Yes, renting is good just to make sure you like it.. I did the same thing when I moved to Northern California, I rented for about a year and a half.. But, I fell in love with it up here. I like the water and sports and I am around all of it.. Plus close to travel to a lot of interesting places.
My son is going into 5th grade this year. He starts in a week! I can not believe this is his last year in grammar school.. Then off to Junior High. That sounds so scarey to me.. :p
I totally understand what ya mean.. People need to zip their lips sometimes. Some people act like they know whats going on (Hence that girl at the wig shop) Oh well, I let her say her peace... Do I agree, No way man...

I agree with you Deb. It is so nice to talk to you too!! :)
I do not know whats gonna happen when my son goes away to college.. I have already said he can stay at home until he is 30..lol (I say this now) But, I think I will miss him way too much! He has been here for me through everything. In October we are celebrating as he is telling everyone, "He's BIG 1-0" So, the plans have begun for this huge party.
Just another little thing showing that kids get old fast. I tell him all the time to enjoy it... :)
Oh well, Vegas? Why Vegas? My best friend lived there for 3 years. She liked it at first, but moved back ASAP.
Is your daughter going to UNLV? The campus is nice there.
