Wendy Scissor Hands

CUTE WENDS SCISSOR HANDS

It’s lock down in Jozi, a state of emergency
As you know,
Wends my hair dresser sent me a what’s app,
Haven’t seen her for Three weeks or so,
She’s bored, so started to cut her front and back
Lawn with her scissors,
As for now has no customers, so does not use
Her salon’s mirrors!

This is so cute, Jenny! Incidentally I happened upon a gif of a person trimming grass with scissors! I am sure many people are eager to go back to work. ~ Warm regards & hugs, my friend. // paul

By the time, I have done some chores in our home and a while on our business which Elias and I have decided to run on our own from home, I settle down to my poetry, and then sleep in a little later every morning. I am concerned that if lock downs stop too soon, the virus might go wild! Blessings Lindsay stay safe my friend, Jennifer.

I filed mine down and put them into acetone, but one caught on the duvet and ripped my finger nail half way down my cuticle - it was sore! I've cut mine very short but will grow it again, I've never ever cut it so short, I t hink I took my frustration out on my hair! Blessings dear friend and stay safe thoughts from across the pond. Hugs, Jennifer.
