Re: Re: wearing makeup to hide our illness/Judi B.

Well, congrats on getting your hair cut. I mostly chop my own bangs and

sides because don't really have the money for a cut. I'd really like a

curly perm, because that is very easy to take care of as well. I don't know

if my back will tolerate sitting in the beauty chair for so long. Maybe

after I get my TENS unit. Anyway, it's nice to know that a lot of us just

don't care any more about putting the time in on our appearance. I hope you

can get some rest and relief over the weekend now, Judi. Take care.
