This Giraffe came home with me the other day. This is the Giraffe that was at the hair salon that I went to on an interview and once I saw the giraffe I knew I Alec was letting me know that I should work there. I took the job back a few months ago and seeing the giraffe has brought me comfort. The owner asked me if I would like to take it home, she was getting rid of it because it doesn't match the decor and she knew I had to have it. What was really sweet is that she told me if I needed the Giraffe to stay at the salon to comfort me then i could keep him there in the back room. I told her I would be ok with him at home and now he is in our living room.
What made me think, was that I had just found out that the Giraffe was a gift from a client to the previous owner (who still works there), and she didn't know what to do with it so she kept it in the back room. And the owner now decided to put it in the facial room probably a few months before I started.
I just felt when she told me this that it was waiting for me.
Then last week at work, my boss from a distance held up sunglasses and asked if they were mine she said they were left on her desk, I said no, and she said are you sure, I said No they weren't mine. She just kept holding them up waiting for me to claim them. She said I thought for sure they were yours. I said why are they animal print and she said yes. Then a bit later I saw them laying on the desk and they were Giraffe print. I figured they just had an animal print in the brown , but these were brown and white definate Giraffe print. It was like Alec replaced the Giraffe statue with Giraffe sunglasses to comfort me.
