My coworker mentioned she goes to the guy in Parklane. (It's the only salon there) He takes last-minute appointments. She said she really likes him.
Like you, her hair has not been cut for a few years.
She went today after work to get about 7 inches of her hair cut off

A Word document or a voice recording. There is no right or wrong way to begin.

Would it help to write everything out in a letter to yourself? Or a journal. You can shred everything later.

I wish to complain that Sadie's assistance during the photo shoot was not acknowledged.
Oh and nice egg!

Oh! Darn doors they often appear unexpectedly out of nowhere.
I have a similar ring my opal is teardrop shaped.
The ring was my Mom's. One year for my birthday she gave it to me along with several other rings I'd always admired.

Two vintage rings. 1st is diamonds and sapphires set in a yellow
gold setting. 2nd a teardrop oval, sapphires set in a white gold setting.

I'm a vote for the turquoise.
The other colours all draw the focus to the candle and not the holder.

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

My Sobeys has it that price every 2nd or 3rd week. It is not always listed in the flyer so it might just be an in-store thing.

That is lovely. You need a colour. Do you have a similar bag in a bolder or contrasting colour?
Have fun at the event!

Then choose a statement necklace or maybe a bracelet stack. Something that works with your hair and the outfit.

MinglingThreads 🇨🇦 @minglingthreads.bsky.social · 5d

Your hair is a fashion statement all on its own the shawl detracts from it.

MinglingThreads 🇨🇦 @minglingthreads.bsky.social · 5d

The pantsuit looks perfect. Rather than the shawl do you have a large silk scarf or chunky necklace?

Oh! I have several Meindl pieces, including Christmas angels, and I believe I have a clown that I gave to my Mom. We had some of Elfriede's pieces as well as some of Susan's work.
If I am brave enough (too many memories), I might go through the Christmas decorations to see what I have.
