Hairdos and driving don'ts....

Saturday 14th May 2022 I was up bright and early this morning, to be in Melville for my 8am hair appointment, which was actually 9am so I was really early.  Fortunately my lovely hairdresser could make a plan and the day got underway.

I managed to set up some unplanned farewells with friends on my way back to my sister's.  My hair took longer than expected and while I was driving I realised that I was feeling very rushed and almost anxious.  I was going through my mental list of  things still to do and pack, when I got stuck in a long line of traffic at the cemetery.  Impatiently I turned off and followed some other cars but I ended up in cul de sac streets and having to turn around.  It was at that point I realised that it was symbolising my anxious thinking and I burst out laughing at myself. 


I met with my friends and had a nice catch up and came home to my last braai for a while.  It was too cool for me to sit outside so I snuggled with Molly and waited for the coals to cook the meat. I think Molly knows it's my last night here, she was looking sad.
