Courage

So, I can give a pass along card to anyone.  I can bear my testimony in Portuguese. But have my hair done by a stranger who I can't communjicate with!  Whoa.  Yes I did.  Gale had his hair cut and she did a pretty decent job so I thought I would give it a try.  But color can be so tricky ( yes, I'm not a natural blonde, anymore) I could just picture myself looking like some of the ladies on the street with orange hair - all frizzy.  So we went in and arranged the appointment and Dad came with me.  The beauty shop was immaculate and very pretty.  Dad left for a couple of minutes to get something and I was so nervous but she actually did a very good job.  The color was perfect and the cut was great. But, dad found out how long it really takes to get your hair done.  He says next time he will leave me and go study somewhere else.  I'm OK with that- now. I tipped her 5 Euros but was later told tipping is not done in Portugal. But, I have noticed that it is occasionally done in Portugal though only small amounts like the change left over from your bill.  Live and learn.
