Hey, Lady!!! Haven't talked to you in so long!! So, I would like to know what shampoo and conditioner you're using. I think I could give you a few helpful choices of some new stuff to use. Without knowing what's going on, I'd say Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo would be a good one, also Matrix Alternate Action Shampoo, or you could try Nioxin, it's a lot more expensive, but we've recommended that to other people in our salon with the same problem and it's worked wonders. It also helps with thin hair. Those are the only 3 I can think of at the moment. Hope everything else is well with you and your family.

I'd also like you to know that Brad and I are going thru the same thing you and JT are going thru. We're getting a divorce. I just have to go to the lawyer and draw up the papers. Luckily we don't have kids so there'll be no fighting with that and I automatically get all the animals, so that's a plus. We're really not fighting about anything at all, which is good. I'm still living with him, but plan to move out in the next week or so, maybe before Christmas. I'll be living with my parents and they have dial up so that sucks. If you ever need to talk, I'm here.

As far as what Im using, I just started using the Herbal Essences Hello Hydration (blue bottle).  I thought this may be the prob, but my mom got this scalp thing the same time I did and she didn't change brands.

I am like....in pain.  I have scratched until my head is raw....even have scabs (this is so embarrassing...lol).  JT told me to coat my head in mayo - so I did.  It was horrible.  My hair got so tangled and I smelled like a mayo head.  I had to wash and condition twice to get the smell out.

I'm gonna look into the products you mentioned.  I'm willing to try anything at this point.  I have NEVER had this happen to me.  Worst case scenario, I'll go to a dermatologist.  I'm just putting that off because insurance doesn't cover those visits.

I am SOOOOO sorry to hear about you and Brad.  I really am.  You were the couple I thought would never separate.  JT moved out on July 12th.  I can't imagine going through this at Christmas.  Neither of us have even filed divorce papers yet.  We still talk a little, havent been fighting, but I seriously don't see us getting back together.  We both have some good things going on in our lives (finally) that wouldn't be happening if we were together.  So I figure this is just the plan of a higher being.

He has joined a band and will be leaving to tour Europe in January.  His first tour is to Switzerland, Germany, and Belgium.  He is so excited and I'm really happy for him.

Me, I'm getting closer (hopefully0 to having my gastric bypass surgery.  I'll know in January if my insurance has approved me.  They do cover it, but I have to meet certain requirements first.  I have met them all except for losing 5% of my total body weight.  Losing weight at the holidays just sucks...lol

I still miss JT so bad.  I love him to death.  I would give anything just to have him here to hug and hold on to, but I know that me having that would only hold him back in his music and I love him enough to let him go on.  Its so hard to watch hi mleave and go "home" when this use to be his home.  I'm not looking forward to Christmas at all this year.  Other than my boys, it will be the first Christmas I've ever spent alone.

As well, if you ever need to talk just drop me a PM or hit me up on MySpace.  I spend more time on MySpace then I do here now...lol....(thats bad).  My addy is www.myspcae.com/silentcsiren

I am looking forward to New Years though.  This has been a TERRIBLE year for me and I am SO looking forward to it being over.  The kids will be gone and I have 2 bottles of wine waiting on me!!
