Yesterday was quite a day! I got to work and attempted to park on top of what turned out to be snow-covered ice. Spent an hour trying to dig out, crying, and sweating my ass off, until 2 wonderful men driving an American Signature Furniture van stopped and pushed me out. Interesting that a police officer and a PPA tow truck both passed me without a word or gesture of help. Lord, was I thankful to get out of that jam, and to Mike and Manny for their selfless gesture.
I also found out that my dear friend, Nadina was in the hospital after a terrifying fall down her steps with her son Colin in her arms. She somehow managed to protect him from injury, but wound up fracturing 2 sections of her spine. So frickin' scary...how your life has the potential to change in an instant and how it's so easy for us to take the simplest movements for granted. I went over to her house and helped her out with a few things and hung out with her for a while. Man, even with a fractured back that girl is a bad-ass...and funny as hell too! Mere kept my Jack company while I was gone and I was so relieved to find a mess-free home when I got here at 11pm. I have such incredible people in my life...I know I keep saying that, but it's so true and I'm so thrilled about it...
Just finished getting a package together for Mandy and included some pix of her sons, John Thomas (JT) and Jayden, along with some funny pix from Christmas (example: my brother was wearing a t-shirt that said "I'm with Stupid" that included an arrow pointing to the person next to him...yeah, he's a riot).
I was thinking about trying to get to the gym tonight (my new schedule has made it a challenge to get there as often as I'd like), but between my sore back from yesterday, and just sheer exhaustion, I decided it can wait 'til the weekend...
Now I'm going to watch a scary movie...by myself...what is wrong with me?? :-)
