YES! It has not been too long this time since I last posted. Two things - one is new for "me" and the other is a craft I like doing. First... I have been crocheting like crazy. It is my relaxer. I have noticed since chemo, that what I would call doing normal stuff (organizing/straightening rooms, going thru the mail, etc.), sometimes over taxes my brain and gives me an anxiety attack. Usually a small one, so I have found crocheting helps relax me or a few minutes of playing Minecraft on the Xbox 360. Not sure how playing Minecraft works to help me but it does. Maybe because it make me concentrate on one thing. Hmm?? Not sure. Projects I have started, working on and possibly finished in the last year are: two different sizes of Dr. Who scarves. They turned out different (in length) as I was going by a knitting pattern and was not sure how many crochet rows would equal one knitted row, so I tried out two different ways. One, the shorter version, I gave to one of my daughter's. The second one, which was closer to the original knitted one in size, I gave to one of my son's and it worked out great as he is 6ft 4 in in height. I crocheted a bunny for a grandson for his birthday. It turned out really cute. I made some crochet topped towels and I finished a beautiful 2 strand gorgeous red throw for myself. I have a "retro circle" blanket in the making for a Christmas gift next year. I just finished a cowl ( using this pattern: http://crochetincolor.blogspot.com/2011/10/soft-stitch-cowl-pattern.html) and started another one tonight. Second... I have been a little more gutsy with my hair since I got it back. It took me a while to decide it I want to just let what grows back stay or do I change the color and get rid of the "gray" high lights. Before I lost my hair I may have dyed it 3 times through out my 49 years. My hair was always long from my shoulders and down, but since I lost it, I like the shorter hair. It is hard not to let it grow and get back to the "comfort" zone. Not for now. This past week I went and had my hair dyed. I even did high lights and not the natural ones either. It looks great and it is such a pick-me-upper! Why haven't I done this before? So... there are two questions for you tonight. What do you do to relax? and Do you like to stay all natural or dye it?
