At the hairdresser




I believe I have a wild raspberry plant growing in my garden! I can't wait to taste them if it comes to fruit this season. At first I thought it might be a wild rose plant because of the thorns it has.

I've started going to the hairdresser every 4 weeks now as my hair seems to get grey faster than ever. He had an interesting customer chatting to him this week. Hairdressers must hear all kinds of stories, sort of like being a therapist. Anyway this man would've been in his sixties and he was telling the hairdresser of his plans to move to England. They are off next week to find a house there. His wife is English, their kids are grown and live in places like Vancouver and Malaysia. It seems they have no close relatives in the Toronto area anymore. He spoke of the books he was reading, saying how history repeats itself. It made me think that we would learn from this wouldn't we?

As I waited my turn, I browsed some magazines. I saw this tube squeezer product in a catalogue. It seemed useful for those who make a mess of their toothpaste tubes, such as son K.
