Ode to the Hairstylist

Today I went and had my hair cut. I abandon the idea that I needed to have a picture though. I decided to tell the stylist my problem (thinning hair) and let her do as she saw fitting for me. The result is great! I told Paula (the stylist) that I am going through some hormonal changes, that I noticed my hair thinning mostly on the sides, that I needed a shorter length so that there would be less brushing and so my hair wouldn't be so flat on my head. As a result I have what I would call a soft "Rachel" (you know Jennifer Aniston's hair in the early Friends days). The length brushes my shoulders, there are lots of layers low in the cut and the top is still pretty solid but short enough to bounce. it has really helped my outlook on the whole hair issue.
Yesterday I was dealing with "the other end". I had my intravaginal ultrasound. This was a first for me and a new level of discomfort! Bless all those women who have had this done many times and I hope to get used to it and be able to ignore the pressure. I am starting to get anxious to find out the results of all these tests...June will tell...TTFN
