Not that I believe in karma, but...

Things sure have a way of evening out, don't they? I was feeling pretty good. Last night a friend of ours surprisingly bought our supper. He didn't have to, and it was totally unnecessary, and I wasn't real sure what was even going on at the time... but it was very much appreciated (thanks again, Mike!). So, this morning I was thinking about how lucky we are to have the friends we have. Then I made a trip to the Bluffton Hospital to pray with someone before they had surgery. I really don't like hospitals, but it does often make me feel like I actually contribute in certain times like this. I was feeling good about that. I happened to be driving my daughter's car and thought I would fill it up with gas and even take it through the car wash. Again - something nice I could do that I know she would appreciate and it would make me feel good too. So...... after putting in the gas, I went to get back in the car and... ugh... I locked the keys in it! (I know both my kids are smiling now). :)

So I walked down to where Jane works, took her car home and got the other set of Carrie's keys. At least the car wasn't RUNNING. :) But if that's as bad as my week goes, then it won't be too bad at all.

Peace, peeps.

AHAHAHAHAH!

Glad me and Isaac could rub off on you. Too bad the car wasn't running though. That's the ultimate thing to do. It's so embarassing that you just have to laugh and feel good about it - totally embrace it.

Thanks for the gas, and the car wash. :)

"Hello Blonde-Star? I locked my keys in my car. huh? Blonde-Star equipped? I dunno, how can I tell?"

It was then that Dan "wove a tapestry of obscenity that, as far as we know, is still hanging in space somewhere over Lake Michigan."

I'm glad the two of you were able to enjoy this. :) And, no, I did no "weaving of obscenities"... but that is a hilarious movie/scene.
