I tried to get “the
product” today… that is, the wig to cover this poor cold balding head. Bits and pieces of short little hairs still
clinging to the scalp. Fewer and fewer
every day. Sure makes shampooing easier.
However, if any breeze blows over the scalp, whether inside or out….brrrr chilly.
It would make the hairs of one's head stand….if I had any that is.
The “product” fit
nicely and felt good. Unfortunately it
was way, way too blonde. Almost bleached
blonde. I looked sick. Felt a little sick too. We tried on a different color. Too much red.
Washed me out. Found one that I
think will be good. The color actually reminds me of a lighter version of my
youngest sister’s hair color… well, before she started coloring. So now Laurie, the nice wig lady, is ordering
a new color of the wig I like and it should be here next week some time. Another opportunity to spend time with my
friend Debi. I don't know whether to be disappointed that I didn't get the wig today or simply celebrate that I had a great time with Debi and that I have another "excuse" to get together again. I think I will celebrate.
We had great
conversations over shrimp pad thai and beef stroganoff. I loved hearing her passion for servant
leadership and for empowering others to serve.
Of serving others by teaching and leading. Not by micromanaging but by building and
instilling abilities (capabilities?) into the lives of those whom she serves.
She is truly a gifted and amazing woman.
I love rubbing shoulders with the likes of her!
And more
blessings! Burt, a coworker of Farmer
Husband Gary, made us this amazing lasagna soup for supper. Spicy pork sausage, vegetables, tomatoes, and
topped with provolone and mozzarella cheeses.
Oh! How scrumptious! I can’t
begin to communicate what a huge gift his meals have meant to me. Although I think my family may never eat my
cooking again!
