Those of you posting about thin, thining, and loss of hair…..may not appreciate this…..not trying to make anyone feel bad.
My hair is very, very thick…..I keep my style short, cut every 8 or 9 weeks, THINNED in certain areas, every cut.
Have had long hair, many times through my life.
When very young…..had very thin head of hair…….the doctor suggested to keep cutting my hair short, a pixie cut……in time, my hair really thickened…..to what it still is now.
Hair loss…..just normal.

Maybe that’s why my hair is so thick and grows back so fast. I’ve always kept it short and never used any products on it, and not even blow dried it.
 

Went for morning walk, 9 degrees with wind chill factored in. New coat from Costco, with sweater, keeps me toasty.

The election results were all about the Arizona governorship 🙄, while I wanted information on the House of Representatives election results. The blue team is still 204 and the red team is 215. I watched and watched but CNN never said where the additional results came from. The counting continues. 😮. Recounts will start soon. 😂

Gone are the days when news outlets are impartial about election results, which is a shame. Seems everyone has an axe to grind these days.

Got an interesting call from my oldest half sister, which delayed my walk. She was extremely upset about the fact that a younger half sister had posted a picture of our dad on her Facebook account, honoring him for being a vet. Cause our dad deserved no honor and where did she get that picture?

She wanted to put my phone number on the younger half sisters facebook page. 😳. NOOOOOOOO. Do not do that. Please do not do that. She wants me to tell the younger sister that I am on her side. Yes, I am. But noooooo, don’t do that.

Older sister is 83. The younger sister is in her 50’s. Dad has been dead for decades. Why does all this crap matter?
 
Well I've spent all afternoon trying to return an item to Amazon. My printer is not printing barcodes properly so I was unable to print a return label. I contacted Amazon.. after jumping through several hoops. ..they told me to send it to someone else with a printer. I told them I couldn't do that.. so they suggested instead that I use a courier company the name of which they sent me..and they would reimburse the postage

having never used a courier I believed that it would be simple to return..

Filled in the necessary details.. my address, weight and dimensions of the object.. then they asked for the Amazon return address.. well that's a devil to be found.. absolutely ridiculously hard.. but I found it eventually, but then there was no phone number for them which the courier company insisted they have.. again.. I searched and searched and finally entered a generic Amazon phone number.. ..then had to pay £8.95.. for collection tomorrow..
Phew thinks me.. that's all done.. see what thought did ?... they sent me an email telling me how to wrap the return item.. and to PRINT off the Barcode and label... :eek::eek:...which I can't do.. which was the reason for me contacting Amazon in the first place.. so now I've paid £25 for the item.. and £8.95 for the collection tomorrow... and I cannot print out the Address and Barcode.. 😖😖😫

When my printer wasn't working Amazon sent me the return label in the mail and charged me $1.00 for it.
 
I still feel a bit weak, even though my cold was "bad" for just a day or two last week. So I'm having another lazy day. Maybe a bit of housework.

I got an offer from the bank for a line of credit. Not sure why I'd want it or how I'd use it. For buying a car or something? Guess I'll have to read up.

My hair is very thick also. Always been that way and I only had it short once (the worst year of my life!). I have colored it since I was 13 and still do. My hairdresser recently told me that my hair is thicker than most of her younger clients. She thins it out a bit every now and then. I have been pretty lucky as far as that goes because hair loss is normally a hormonal issue. I lost my beautiful skin when I turned fifty so thankful for my hair. My grandmother and my mother both had very thick hair. My grandmother had barely any gray, coal black till she died.

My hair is grey. Every Sunday, when I pick Joey up, he says “remember when your hair was black?” Nope, I say. My hair was never black, it was brown. 🤦🏻‍ Let’s talk about something else he says. Cause you are wrong. 🤔😳

Every dang Sunday.

It is funny how people remember things differently. My brother doesn't remember anything like I do. Joey sounds like a good kid. I am fortunate to have one of those too.

Do you feel better about the UTI, that is the thing that has me worried. You might want to go and pee in a cup and just have them check it to be safe.

I guess I have been lucky, I have never had to return anything. The times I have received the wrong product they told me to donate to charity and credited my account.

They was a box of cat food. No cat, gave it to the next door neighbor who has a cat. the wrong toy for the grandson, took it to goodwill. I know I am lucky, I have never had a problem with amazon!!
 
I'm home and have been for more than an hour...resting and gathering my wits.

Newbie called early and was too sick to work. Please not Covid! Sir off today. So nothing new, I worked alone again.

Newbie wants to work 40 hours. I want to work 20-26. So the reason for giving her only a few hours and me 30 is...?

To make sure you are there to give me the bread, doughnuts, bagels fresh from the oven, to make us smile and some days just fall out right there in front of the case in laughter. I don't know if it happens in your store but I make sure it happens in mine!!

Thank you, @Blessed . I have a doctor appointment tomorrow. The receptionist was kind of bitchy and didn't give me a chance to ask about a urine sample. I'll take one in anyway.

Just a heads up, they are going to want a fresh clean sample for testing. they do not want you to bring one, make sure you drink plenty of water before you get to the doctor. If you have to go before the doctor can see you tell them you need to be checked for an UTI. They should give you a clean cup to catch a sample. They should also give you a clean wipe for your lower region so they are getting a clean sample of urine for testing You may know all of this or you maybe one of the lucky few that have never had an UTI.

this is the first time I've had to return anything... anything that costs less or isn't broken..like this Security bar brace.. just gets donated if I simply don't like it..
