Hi Jen, thank you for that wonderful post you sent me, I really really appreciate it. I envy your ability to run...I was a runner for years, slowed down over the last 5 years but then I got another auto immune disease called polymyalgia rheumatica and now walking any distance is a big deal! Btw the pic of John and 'me' is actually him and my daughter but yes she does look like me :) Phuket was great, we really had a lovely time. Let us know how you go on that run!
Sorry, for all the emails but, just wanted to mention that my daughter has an appt in Winnipeg Dec 22nd. It is close to Christmas, but, I will send you the details of where we will stay just in case we can meet for coffee or dinner. We usually stay at the Canad Inn on Pembina so the kids can swim. If you have an something that you want me to email out, I do not mind helping out. I also have access to video conferencing so can connect like this. tks, Penny
We usually go in Winnipeg before Christmas, so I will be sure to contact you before then. I see the Winnipeg Alopecia group is small so hopefully we can get other members. When I emailed a Winnipeg hairdresser about wigs and asked if she had alopecia clients she said yes, so maybe need to post signs in wig stores. Just a thought. Even though Isabella has discussed her hair loss with the school/groups, she still wants to see what her options are for wigs for special occasions.
Hi Jen have run two marathons myself a few years ago now and loved them both your going to feel Greta you finish. Pat and I have done a couple of half marathons together running keptnus sane during many stressful times with the whole AA thing. John
Oh thanks Jenn, I love that profile pic too...I actually don't have many pics yet of myself bald but am going to change that! Good luck on the marathon...way to go...closest I came was the half marathon and that was incredible! So...GOOD LUCK!!!!!
I actually have cut bangs since getting this piece, so it looks a bit different. My last one was cut into a bob and i really like it short but kind of liking longer for now. How long did you order this time? Mine was 10 inches didn't get much cut off. I love the inverted bob cut it's my favorite look that's what my hair used to look like BEFORE it fell out. ugh well take care enjoy the day.
talk soon
Hi you! Happy Holidays! (Much happier celebrating with new hair .. I can say that for sure! :)--- Thank you so much for the compliments...I just got my hair thinned out a bit more (2nd time) and the bangs cut a bit more. Was just still wayyy too heavy.
We built our home in 2003 and moved in two days before Christmas. We LOVE our home - I'll take some interior shots and send them to you. I can just see it in the midst of a forest..(gorgeous setting - where?!) It's actually not overly large - 3800 sq feet - main floor master w/ 2 more bedrooms downstairs. Very open - outdoor kitchen - large deck..we live in every room - truly. We have the plans - Kirk and I worked with an amazing architect and actually the home was copied from another home in the Evergreen area (up I70 toward Breckenridge).
The pictures by the way were taken by a great photographer - Kirk and I donated a ton of money to the Animal Shelter (a new one was just built here in Golden) and purchased a van that our doggies pictures will be on - they added a professional photo setting for all of us! We were so happy - such fun! My dogs are amazingly gorgeous aren't they?!
Jenn - checking in to see how life is and how your wig is doing? Did you keep it longer? I did and I'm so happy...everyone tells me it makes me look younger (only 45 so not sure how much younger :) --
How do you wash your wig liner? I'm not sure what products to use? Anyway, Happy Holidays to you and your family and you look GORGEOUS!
