"Sleep on it." is advice that is often given about things.
Well!! I can tell you, sleeping on that mess didnt make for a good result. This morning I have been trying to find a paper bag large enough to wear on my head! Shampooing, slathering with 'product'- what sort of stupid term is that??- hairdryer....nothing makes any difference.
And in other news, GOM had a near death experience, yesterday, only he didnt realise it.
He was foolish enough to let the words 'pudding bowl' pass his lips, within my hearing. He will never know how close he came to a serious mischief!
I did take all your kindly advice to heart & have decided perhaps if I just ignore it all, it might go away, as in adopting an 'ostrich mentality'. I harboured thoughts of sneaking up, to take photos of the "heinous cutter"'s hair, as a warning, for others as to what they should avoid in a 'hairdresser'. But on second thoughts, I cant be bothered.
I decided to just do a few photos instead.
This, in bright sunlight, is some of the shambles in my spare bedroom, which is all in disarray due to carpet problems. A patchwork cushion I made, & actually dislike. It is supposed to be an Angel, but she is too weird for my taste. My daughter's 34 year old doll is sitting in there too, for some obscure reason. And that is my old Teddy I purchased to overcome severe 'bear deprivation', when I went nursing at 18 years of age.
This funny old Ted's picture sneaked in here by accident, & I cant delete it, or I will lose all my photo uploads. He has a music box inside, but it doesn't work. He was a garage sale orphan, & I have posted his pic before.
This is Enya, the Angel doll I made, & she sits on our headboard, watching over us. Wish I had her hair!! haha. I took her wings off too, but she doesnt mind, they were only pinned on the back of her dress. I think they are lost!
And after reminiscing about my Grandmother's cooking, I started thinking about the old dishes she used to serve things in, & how I still have some of them, & still use them.
This was actually my mother's & was the main bowl of a Dessert set she had been given as a wedding present. It is about 66 years old! It once had 6 small desert dishes to match, but they crazed very badly, & seemed to all chip, so there are none left now.

She told me it was just a cheap one she bought just before the war years. She used to serve stewed fruit in it, or made junkets, which she often served in this bowl too. The only part of junket I liked was the cinnamon she used to sprinkle on the top!
And these old glass dishes are not particularly good glass even, but they look nice with a jelly in them, or fruit.

We have had another carpet man come to quote.
Leo is a very bad host, & I have been threatening him, he is going to have to have some Estrogen to calm down his rampant aggressive streak! He has just got a little too big for his doggy paws, & something will have to be done.
The sun is struggling to shine, but the clouds keep rushing over, & we are tipped to have more rain.
Oh well, good indoor sewing weather!
