I’ve been busy lately, in a good way. Today I went to the birthday lunch for one of my sisters-in-law, one of the biggest gatherings of the extended family in a long time. Then, I went over to their house to join the family in further celebrations, including karaoke, though I mercifully spared everyone from enduring what surely would’ve been a shocking sonic assault coming from me. At the end of the night, I dropped a visiting sister- and brother-in-law at their motel, which, conveniently was on my way home. Travel advice from another brother-in-law (the birthday girl’s husband) worked a treat.
This past Thursday I got a hair cut at a barber I haven’t been to before. After my recent unfortunate experience at the one I’ve been going to since I shifted to Kirikiriroa-Hamilton (which I mentioned here on the blog at the time), I’m looking for a new option. The one I chose was better, but an incomplete success (not the least because it was a 75% increase in price for a haircut I still wasn’t happy with). The search continues.
This coming week will be busy, too. We have a public holiday on Monday (King’s Birthday), which is also the first day of winter in the Southern Hemisphere. On Wednesday I’ll go to my mother-in-law’s for my weekly visit with her, and then on Thursday I have my annual visit with my doctor and my annual flu vaccination. Oh, and I also have my biannual bowel cancer screening poop test to do at some point.
Busy days. And nights, apparently.
It's difficult to find a good barber. I went to a new one last month because it was new and within walking distance. It was okay, and I'm glad a business is in what had been laundromat, closed for at least three years.
