The obvious omission

I pack lightly wherever I go. You may recall my 2 packing rules rules from an ealier post.

However this holiday my packing list was different.

It had its usual array of clothes, toiletries, but one thing was obvious by its omission.

It was my hair.  My wig. I decided to leave it behind. 

I was holidaying in two parts, but both with trusted people and both were activity driven. 

So whilst mentally preparing for the trip, I envisioned myself as relaxed and comfortable. 

Neither of these states describes that of wearing a wig. So for the first time ever, I left my hair at home for the week and packed even lighter. 

It was a good decision. 

A great decision. 

In the past I would have been too conscious, even vain, to even consier leaving behind my hair. What about first impressions with new people? How does it look going to a restaurant in a cap?  What would people think?

Now all that is gone, instead, replaced with ease, freedom and cute little hats!!

So bye bye little wiggy, it's the office for you only my friend!!!

  1. I was so happy to read this blog. So happy for you and so proud of you too. When I picture you in my mind....I picture you at your most beautiful with your cute little caps and your shining and sparkling green eyes. You are a natural beauty and your "hair" a simple accesory to that.
    I am so happy that you felt free enough to leave the wig at home and just enjoy your week off.
