Anyone Got a Stretcher Weekend Recap
Howdy y'all! Does everyone else remember going back to school around this time when you were a kid? These days? They've been in school for 2 weeks already!! A friend of ours has a third grader and posted the obligatory list o' facts pic their first day of school two weeks ago and I said I was so glad they didn't send us back that early and he heartily agreed! Saturday was off to a low key start but waiting for a small weight rack to replace the mondo one we had down there. They were dragging their feet so I watered the plants front and back and we went out for a little bit then drove through the old hood. We drove past my high school besties house as well as ours. This is the second time we've gone there to reminisce and within 30-60 seconds people roll up on us like they notified the po po of the new car in the court. Lord forbid I look at my childhood apartment for a few minutes so we left since it didn't feel safe. There's nothing...
My recent good is awesome - my cousin agreed to get tested to see if we match to donate a kidney to me - AND WE DO!!! The most self-less gift you can ever give anyone. So appreciative - and scared. But it's my chance to live a better life and he's adamant about going through with it. I feel very blessed.
ReplyDeleteMy good was that I got my new lawn furniture assembled last weekend and the fire pit was brought out of storage, so that it is ready for use this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI also had a fantastic walk after supper on Wednesday. The sun was shining, but it wasn't too warm, I could smell the sea air, and it felt good to be alive. My boyfriend actually suggested that we go. Normally I am dragging him out the door to go for a walk. His suggesting it was a really nice change.
My recent good thing is my eldest was home all Mother's day weekend and did a bunch of items off my to do list! I waited 30 years for that day!
ReplyDeleteWishing you two a fantastic vacation!
My good came out of something bad, which was my car breaking down 70 miles from home in the suburbs. I got help from an auto parts store who directed me to the dealership (and called for me) with 10 minutes to spare on a Saturday afternoon, and the service dept treated me like gold. I bought both places Fannie May as a thank you on Thursday and they were very surprised and appreciative. To my utter shock the service guy had already done up my invoice the day before and said he only charged me for 2 days for the loaner car instead of the 6 I rented it for. He said I'd been through enough and he couldn't do that to me. AND he only charged me $35 a day! So $70 to rent a 2018 Chevy Trax for 6 days with all that mileage. I was blessed indeed!
