I thought this was a nice necklace.
The lady in the hair salon had a necklace in the shape of a scissors.
I asked her about it because it seemed sort of unusual and neat.
She said, “It’s a scissors!”
And then she proceeded to squeeze the miniature two handles, and said, “You see, it actually opens and closes too!”
I could see and hear how proud she was of what she does for a living.
Yes, maybe it doesn’t earn as much as some other professions, but it was her job and she loved it.
I think we should all try to take such pride in our work and in doing a great job!
Everyone has something important to contribute and every contribution truly counts. 😉

Took this photo at the Salon of this hair drying contraption.
The arms actually moves up and down in this crazy arc over a person’s head…like butterfly wings flapping away drying from all positions and surfaces of your head.
Looks quite unnecessary, except that it probably makes the customer feel uh so special…having this unique machine working their hair all over (who the heck would have one of these at home).
Maybe it hovers off the ground and does little whirlies too!
In life, it is up to us to be discerning–what is necessary and real and what is just bluffery and showbusiness.
Yes, there is no business like show business and alien space hairdryers–that fits right in. 😉

I took this photo in the mall at a nail salon.
They were advertising nail art and these were some life-like examples.
At first it seemed weird, these hands, fingers, and nails just placed out there–sitting on a table top.
Not sure whether it reminded me of the hand on The Addams Family or someone giving the finger–lots of them–or everybody applauding.
When I stopped to take a picture, the lady inside tried to convince me to try it and get mine done.
Uh, I don’t think so, but those are some very beautiful nails. 😉
