luxe

so, i redid a client’s eyebrows yesterday. i had been really worried about it, but they came out nice, they still need some work, but they look much much better. the shop that did it originally did such a horrible job. they “fixed” it too after the initial appointment. whatever. anyway, i did needling on her as well, which is a wrinkle treatment which works really well, i did a few lines for free last week when we did the patch test and it made a big difference, we did the frown lines in between her eyebrows, she was excited. she is a bio professor and she was giggly and smiling. i remember how much i like making a difference in people’s lives and getting to know people who i ordinarily would never know, they open up and tell you about their lives, it is really nice. oh, and amy, remind me to tell you the 6 degrees of separation between you and the client….

i had a migraine again last night and my hands were killing me. i started my 3rd slipper pattern, this one from IK, third kind of yarn, and 5th(?) try. so, i have one almost done, hopefully it will work. we were supposed to eat dinner with them tonite, but my sister in law will be there and it will be after work when i am tired and grumpy and i would rather see them by ourselves, although i thought that it would be funny to put one half done slipper, needles still in it in a wrapped box as her present. she would be confused and it would be funny!! it would! ok maybe not. i tried to post pics but flickr was having indigestion and i should try back i am told. whatever flickr. i have been wearing my “cock up”s as they are called for my hands, why are they called that? they help a lot, but when i take them off, they really hurt, so i am not sure if i am making it worse.

i got a huge ottoman on wheels at the thrift store yesterday for 3 bucks. it was filthy, but after scrubbing it with soft scrub and brushes, it looks really good. gabe wants to keep it at the shop. also i moved a comfy chair to the tattoo side to hang out on. the ottoman is too big to leave there. hmmmm.

oh, “la pee la” is the brand name that we are thinking of using. i sing to the cats, in this case peeps using only la la las and their name…any opinions? you know what they say about opinions…i appreciate them.

i saw a new kitten, probably 9 months old, that hides in my flowers and attacks the squirrel that always eats there, he almost got it today, it was like wild kingdom, really crazy, i thought that poor squirrel got it. also i found a bunch of feathers nearby as well, so i think he may have gotten a bird at some point. little bugger.

i just typed this with my “cock up” on! with the metal stay in it and everything! maybe i can learn to knit with it, as well. nah.
