The Friday Five Good Things

 

Five good things that happened this week.

1. I heard from my high school friend who is moving from California to Arizona. The renovations to the house haven't been finished yet so they won't be moving until the end of the month. I'm glad I didn't send the new home card yet.

2. The Eldest Door Dashed donuts for breakfast.

3. The first ripe tomato and cucumber when to making a cucumber and tomato sandwich on brioche for lunch. Okay, it was Wonder Bread and still delicious

4. During bookbinding class learned about a jig to make perfect mitered corners. Found a different tool that does that plus has  4 other features for less money!

5. A lady at the hairdresser let me go ahead of her so I could have the hairdresser I like to cut my hair

How was your week?

  2. That's a banner week to me. I haven't had a cucumber yet. And I'm curious about this corner jig. Have a super day and enjoy it. It's going to be beautiful from the looks of it. :)

  3. I've never heard of customers letting other customers go ahead of them at the hairdresser. How generous!

  5. Can you not make an appointment with the hairdresser you want/prefer to cut your hair?
    I always have the same person, but I do have an appointment time, I couldn't just walk in and guarantee to get her.

    It was very good of that person to let you go ahead first.

    All the best Jan

    1. This is a salon chain. The haircuts are inexpensive and you get who ever happens to be on duty so you can't make an appointment for a particular stylist. However, I liked one who knows intuitively how to cut my hair. So I usually call the salon to see if she's working. This time around, I asked if she has a particular day she's always in. She said Mondays so that's when I'll plan to have my cut from now on.

  8. California to Arizona. Hope she enjoys her new state. If I moved there it would be northern Arizona.
