Sometimes reality unfolds like this: Wake up early to pick flowers before getting ready for work…rain starts just after alarm goes off…change plans to include “dolling up” for work first…dig out old blue poncho to prevent rain from drowning hair (only partly successful)…cut flowers…try to salvage hair…reapply running mascara…chalk up hair to “bad hair day”…grab mug of coffee…head out the door. The show must go on for the Monticello Iowa Farmers Market tomorrow morning!
