another one of those days...

Today was one of those days again, not that they are bad, but just a bit chaotic. Somehow I was the whole day doing errands (the kind that at the end of the day one has the impression that nothing was really done) and among other things I had an appointment at the hairdresser. About a year ago someone recommended me this hairdresser and finally last month I got to make an appointment but then when the day came I couldn´t because I had another appointment much more important so I had to cancel and get a new appointment which was today. Well, I was really looking forward to it, thinking and imagining a new haircut (which I wasn´t really sure how it should be) and after all the expectation ...it did not happen: I confused the time and arrived 30 mnts later!!! I had it written on my agenda, saw it several times and still mixed up the time; so of course the woman told me I was too late and I left absolutely disappointed and upset with myself. I decided to take a long walk and along the way I found another hairdresser, which looked a bit shabby and still I went in, but got only the ends trimmed. So I still have my hair long for my usual short standards. And now I am not sure if I want to cut it. Maybe it is not meant to be yet. Therefore today I wondered why is a haircut so important for us women? there is a whole world of expectations about it, it can mean the birth of a new self, a renewal which is only visible on the head but goes much deeper, almost the beginning of a new life. Is it really so? today I realized it is only hair after all. And I felt relieved. A new life does not have to do with my hair, and the feeling of renewal has to come despite my hair. So then I saw that my hair looks healthy, and walked in the sun until I went to a shop and found the handbag I had been looking for (no, no sense of renewal and so on; just happy I found it) and then went to my acupunture session as to give a nice closure to the haircut problematic. Afterwards cooking a vegetarian quinoa dish and after uploading this post , I am ready to sleep. The drawing today: still loving my markers!
