Blue Dog Jewellery - Loulou's life, It's a dog's life or is it?

Quote of the day:

"All women are born unique, some are more unique than others!"

Loulou, chairman of Blue Dog Jewellery

It's a dog's life:

We all have good days and bad days, positive times and negative times.  I'm normally full of the joys of life - as long as I have my daily dose of love, food and exercise I'm always a happy bunny (so to speak). However 2008 has dealt me more than my fair share of bad days and I'm not talking about the credit crunch. Let's face it -this has been a bad year for my image.  The spin doctors have tried to work their magic, but in vain.  I have single handedly succeeded in taking the concept of a bad hair day to a whole new level. 

First there was the dermatitis on my nose resulting in a biopsy and the indignity of wearing a buster collar to prevent me from scratching myself.  This was not a good look when trying out my usual chat up lines in the park. Even my best friends pretended not to know me. No-one wanted to be seen with me - I was so uncool. However, eventually my nose returned to normal, my dermatitis was cured and my natural beauty was restored.  I began to regain my composure, proudly strut my stuff again and lapped up the customary praise for my natural good looks.

It is said that pride comes before a fall and it wasn't long before disaster struck again.  This time I contracted a skin infection on my hips.  According to my vet I have a bony bottom, which makes me prone to skin infections.  Personally I have always thought that my derriere was perfectly proportioned.  In fact most women tell me that they would kill to have my vital statistics. Needless to say, yet another biopsy followed, together with the compulsory lampshade on my head in case I felt the urge to scratch again.  But the worst was yet to come: the treatment included regular bathing (which I hate), a course of antibiotics (which I tolerated because the pills were in a nice girly pink colour) and having my bottom shaved! Well, I didn't know where to look - I was SO embarrassed!

I normally love my daily walks but they became the Walks of Shame.  Every time I met someone I knew I had to quickly sit or lie down to hide the bareness of my bottom.  Everyone thought I was just being polite by sitting down to talk to them but little did they know the dreadful secret I was desperate to hide.  I begged to be walked under the cover of darkness but my requests met with deaf ears!

2008 ended with an operation, and a further round of shaving, as I needed to have a lump removed from my side. Frankly at this stage, there aren't many parts of my body which haven't been shaved. What's a girl got to do to get some self-respect?

So I have decided in 2009 the only way is up! I will have a new attitude to life and will accentuate the positive and focus on my good points. I am still pretty, I am still unique and I am still proud! I always say if you've got it flaunt it!

 

Here I am looking pretty in pink!

Here are some famous women who lost there hair for different reasons but still look beautiful - they have been an inpiration to me in my darkest hours!

Sigourney Weaver

 

Sinead O'Connor

 

Demi Moore

Kylie Minogue

 

Natalie Portman

Wishing everyone a happy, hairy and healthy 2009!

Lots of love,

Loulou

BLUE DOG JEWELLERY - QUOTE OF THE DAY

"Rich people start off as poor people. The
difference is they take the nickels and dimes and
they invest it — they didn’t spend it all at the mall."
— Ric Edelman: author of "Ordinary People, Extraordinary Wealth," financial guru.

Life is a habit — a routine — a blur from one day to the next. And when you piece all of your little habits together, it shapes who you are as a person. The key is making the right habits stick and shedding yourself of the bad ones. Therefore, before you can even start investing, building wealth and putting money in the bank, you need to first put the right habits into your mind. Then you’ll be far ahead of most Americans, who will still be working when they should be retiring. A no-nonsense plan can help grow your wealth.

BLUE DOG JEWELLERY - QUOTE OF THE DAY

"They say that time changes things, but you
actually have to change them yourself."
— Andy Warhol: was an American artist

Most people make only slight changes in their lives with every new year. Then they wonder why their salary is only slightly different, their weight is only slightly different, and their fun, friendships, and fulfillment are only slightly different. The small percentage who make significant, noticeable changes in their lives each year, see a dramatic change in their salary, health, and happiness.
