I had a hair appointment yesterday. For the last 30 some years I have gone to my hair appointments as Leanne. I've been driving to a town 30 minutes away for the last six years for my beauty needs. My hairdresser was injured in an auto accident a year ago and didn't do hair for months. Now she is slowly working back by taking a few clients at her apartment. As I was being shampooed, Amanda said," could you do me a huge favor? Can you take me to the grocery store after this?" I told her that I would love to help.
She did a great job on my hairstyle and even retouched my makeup. Then on the way out to my car she took some pictures with her camera. I felt a little over dressed in my skirt, blouse, and heeled boots. Amanda wore jeans and a top. Maybe some day I can figure out how to post the pictures here.
At the grocery store she bought over 100 cans of vegetables. I thought to myself, wow, she must really like to stock up. While driving away from the store she explained that the food was for a charity project at her son's elementary school. Then she told me how to drive there to deliver the food because she didn't have the use of her car for a while.
I hadn't planned on going into a grade school but was thankful that Amanda had done such a great job on my hair and makeup. At the school we couldn't park close because of the buses so it took us many trips to move everything into the office. No one seemed to look twice at me so I guess I passed. Come to think of it I had always tried to "pass" in my grade school, but for a different reason. Amanda gave me a big hug when I dropped her off at her apartment. I told her that I was glad that I could help.
