Don't worry we have it promised for later, I have just finished the ending to GOD. Don't you love a happy ending!
Oh of course. I think I might actually pick up a book to read later. Not read anything apart from GOD and HOD since I came back from holiday.

They don't like to colour your hair if you have abraisons.
Little buggers always seem to get in your hair , it would be when I went raspberry picking in the garden the other day!
I was going to dye my hair yesterday, glad I didn't, it would have been streaking down my back with this rain.

Talk later

56 and just a few, don't need spectacles to read or anything either!
my mum started dying her hair when she was 21...
so did I. But that was to get ri of the blonde
Well now the kids are in school and I get some mommy time
Darkangel wrote: "so did I. But that was to get ri of the blonde"Lol I used those wash in wash out colours when I was 13 trouble was for some reason in my hair they stayed more or less permanent!
though I didn't start dying my hair properly until I was 44 then I went blonde, and I'm talking really blonde, now its a golden blonde which is just a couple of shades lighter than my natural colour!
Darkangel wrote: "so did I. But that was to get ri of the blonde"I just sent you a copy of an email I sent to Raider!
Trisha wrote: "Well now the kids are in school and I get some mommy time"Good for you what are you going to do with your free time today?
I was trying to nap but the phone keeps ringing
Trisha wrote: "I was trying to nap but the phone keeps ringing"Trisha wrote: "I was trying to nap but the phone keeps ringing"
Can you not switch the ringer off?
No because I need to hear it if the school calls
Trisha wrote: "No because I need to hear it if the school calls"Oh well you're stuck then!
Hey sarah, sorry I didn't say it before, but I agree with you, the changes on GOD are so much better.I'm really nervous, only two weeks to send the stories to the charity for the ok...It's going to be mental!

Yea I know

That's okay Eva, when you first approached the Charity did you tell them it would be an anthology of adult themed stories?
Trisha wrote: "Sarah wrote: "Trisha wrote: "No because I need to hear it if the school calls"Oh well you're stuck then!"

Do you not have a mobile that you could put on vibrate whilst turning the ringer of the home phone? If like me you have given the school both numbers that would be the simplest answer then you can choose to ignore or accept the calls!
see, I've only given the school the mobile number, that way I can turn the house hone off...

They have that number but refuses to use it. If they can't get me on the home phone they call my hubby instead of my cell phone. So home phone has to stay on

I have given both so I can switch the house phone off and most of the time school phone the mobile!

MorningIts dry and bright here today despite our promise of rain! Usually the only type of weather the forecasters get right is the bad weather!
Morning, Pretty much the same here, at the moment. I hold no hopes where the weather is concerned at present. Gonna make a start on the acknowledgements for the anthology as well as my bio. Have you started on yours yet?
Darkangel wrote: "Morning, Pretty much the same here, at the moment. I hold no hopes where the weather is concerned at present. Gonna make a start on the acknowledgements for the anthology as well as my bio. Ha..."
No but I already have a bio ready to go from TBL and goodreads so I am just going to use one of those. I just looked at an article about grey hair - apparently Argan oil can help prevent premature greying of the hair as it stimulates melanin production!
Yet another good reason to take my daily supplement of this magic oil! As it is also rich in anti-oxidants and omega oils 3 and 9!
I was going to use my Goodreads bio, just tweak it a bit.
Darkangel wrote: "I was going to use my Goodreads bio, just tweak it a bit."Why write another? It will have to be less than 200 words, I think that was the criteria Raider gave me, short sweet and to the point. I'm over in HOD I should have 36 for you later today.
Excellent. Just got back to my desk (had to get a coffee).
Yeah I did tell the charity it was written for adults.Anywho, how's everyone this morning?
Morning Eva,I am all good (at the moment), got tons to do but ho hum.
Eva wrote: "Yeah I did tell the charity it was written for adults.Anywho, how's everyone this morning?"
I'm fine, I checked out what to do for prematurely greying hair, you need Argan oil preferably a supplement like I take, because that works from within to nourish your skin, nails, hair etc., I have been taking it for over 6 months with amazing effects, my nails are stronger, my skin has recovered it's elasticity I have fewer wrinkles, my hair too is stronger and thicker than before and like I said apart from greying temples and the odd white hair here and there I have retained my natural colour.
Darkangel wrote: "Excellent. Just got back to my desk (had to get a coffee)."I started on 37, time to get this finished I think, don't you? Now I have the ending to GOD I will drop in from time to time and do an odd chapter when the need to lighten up arises!

really? I'll have a look at the herbal place and buy them!

They aren't cheap I warn you - I get mine online I think last time I bought them they were on special offer and if you bought 3 tubs I think I paid 7,50 for 150 capsules as oppose to 12 I always buy 3 at a time if not they are 13,50! Heres the link if you are thinking of ordering let me know and I will send you an invitation and both of us will get 10 euros vouchers to spend on anything on your next order! http://www.kraeuterhaus.com/content.p...
I just prepared my next order it comes to 97 Euros including postage I ordered 3 tubs argan capsules,3 pomegranite capsules,1 back of hand cream which is brilliant I may add and 3 tubes of devils claw ointment for my knees,and Alains back! And I got a free pack of stevia the natural sugar substitute and 4 euros discount! They are really prompt with their delivery service too when I process the order next week it will be here with 3 - 4 days by courier!They make all their own lotions and potions on site using only the finest herbs, oils and spices and flowers.Oh and no matter how large the order the delivery charge is the same so it pays to bulk order because once you start with the Argan oil you will be hooked, you will notice the results immediately- Sophie takes 2 capsules per day she has very dry skin which feels like tiny little spots under the skin a type of eczema the doctor said, his alternative is cortisone cream which thins the skin and these are all over her body.
The Argan oil makes them disappear and it is doing wonders for her hair and nails which were brittle!
Just thought I would let you all know, only 83 days till Christmas - hee hee
Darkangel wrote: "Just thought I would let you all know, only 83 days till Christmas - hee hee"Grrr... Lol I don't have much to buy this Christmas Sophie has had her present in advance Alain still thinks her riding lessons cost a quarter of the price! Her kit cost me 100 euros too and she is going to England in April so that will be more money + new clothes. So other than books and DVD's she is out of luck!
