The Chop.

I had my hair cut today. It's been 11 weeks since my last one, and I was starting to look a bit worse for ware.

I realise this isn't the nicest of angles to be looking at my face, but it was the best shot I got of how wild my hair was.

Afterwards, I went to one of my mum's work functions - a ladies' luncheon club. And it's exactly what it sounds like. Although I do rather enjoy them. Having grown up around most of the people who attend these sorts of fundraisers it's quite nice to let them know what I'm up to and vice versa. They usually have someone to speak at these lunches but today the person cancelled, spinsters my mum asked them all to tell everyone about their lives and what they wished they'd done differently.

It was really lovely to hear. Lots of the ladies had worked in some kind of admin or health care. And when they were talking about what they would have liked to have done, the majority either changed their jobs to teachers or working with animals. A very humbling experience.
