I had to run my usual morning errands today. You know packages to post office, trip to the bank, garage sales, the important stuff. I also ran out of coffee pods this morning and the only store i my area that sells them is about 6 miles away.
I left the house this morning wearing my favorite girl jeans (sorry Karren) a new top I bought yesterday at Catherines. Kind of an Americana theme. Due to all the opinions on this forum about not wearing hose with sandals I decided to do it. i put on suntan sandalfoot kneehighs and my comfy black sandals, just to see if it would actually bring out the villagers with torches and pitchforks. I topped it off with my favorite wig, which is also my most worn. It is an unusual color scheme. The top third is light brown fading into the middle a dark blond and finishing at the tips a medium brown. It is really cool but as I said has seen better days.
When I arrive at the market I went straight to the coffee section because everything else in the store can be bought anywhere else for less. As I was picking up a box of coffee pods a woman approached me just out of my peripheral vision and put her hand on my shoulder. Scared the living crap out of me. She then proceeded to say "I just wanted to tell you that I just love your hair". That shook me to the core. Then just as I was trying to figure out how to respond she said "are you growing it out or did you have it styled that way". At this point my mind is totally blown. I mean come on what about choice number three? It's a wig. i bought it this way. (on the inside) What I actually said was "thank you so much. I actually had it done this way. You have just made my day. What a nice thing to say" She walked away and as she rounded the corner she looked back over her shoulder one more time.
I have to say from then on I floated on a cloud to the register and out to my car. What a wonderful start to my day.
Tomorrow I am going wig shopping to see if I can find another one or five just like this. Funny thing is it is also my least expensive. I only paid $24.95 for it. Go figure!!
