So yesterday I had another one of my traditional Christmas appointments, I got my hair cut at Penny's.

I know I wax rhapsodical all the time about Penny, but I really have been seeing her since I was eleven or twelve, and she is practically the only person who has ever touched my hair.

What I can't figure out is how she looks so young, for heaven's sake! I mean, she is something like 56 years old, and she looks like she's in her early 30's. Maybe mid-thirties when she has her reading glasses on, but I just keep getting older and she just stays the same.

Somewhere there is a painting falling apart, it's the only explanation.

So I finished the dove grey scarf, yay, and needed to start on something else right away if I am going to have several scarves to show Jana, but I haven't yet received the wool that I ordered from England.

So I found a yarn shop in the area that sells my brand (which took some doing, let me tell you!) and drove over to buy a ball.

They didn't have a gigantic selection, mostly black and white and I really would rather have a proper colour, and then I found a ball of fuscia, and that sure is a proper colour, by golly!

Also, because was in the neighbourhood, I went to Bookstar and picked up presents for Melanie and the kids with the last of my money. Just squeaked under the wire, and they are pretty small things, but I did it! Now let Christmas come! I dare it!

Today's horoscope
You don't need to fake your way into or out of anything. The truly important things no longer scare you. Maybe you're just having a good day, or maybe this is a whole new mindset. Use whatever works for you.

Well, getting lost on the way to the Target that we have been to a hundred times certainly made it clear that it's a family failing. At least she didn't end up on 1 & 9.
