So I ventured forth on my first full day back to work - wondering why I really was going back to work as sleeping in a little has been starting to feel good!
First test for the WIG - the coffee shop I go to almost everyday before I go to work in downtown Traverse City proir to my surgery - I walked in and the owner Alice said to me "wow - what did you do? Did you get a divorece? You look hot!" And the young man barrista next to her smiled. I leaned in closer and said "No - pointing to my boob - bad booby - it's a wig". They marveled over how good it looked - and the young male barrista said to me "I couldn't even tell it was a wig". So why am I telling people???
I went to work and everyone liked the WIG - loved the style - the problem is it is a style which I have tried to do for over fifty years - but my hair does not go straight!! I am thinking I may get another one, because to tell you the truth - it is really easy and saves time in the morning.
The next test for the WIG, I went into our local gourment deli in town - Burrit's - and the owner Ken B, whom we sell to, came up to me, said "Hi", and actually said "Boy I really like your hair. You must have just gotten it done - it looks great!" I smiled and said "Yes I did" and thanked him with a little blush.
Lesson Learned.
It SNOWED on the WIG today too - I was worried about that too! It survived.
Oh well - about 50% of the town knows, the other 50% who don't know me will like my new hair.
I went home and wore the WIG as I prepared dinner and thought to myself - this WIG is going to end up getting food and grease on it as I cook! But still I wasn't ready to let DJ see me without my WIG and see my really really short silver hair. Protecting the first of the brood still - - -he is still my biggest baby. (Good thing he is not interested in this blog!)
