I gave away the bed I´m sleeping in.

Ever since Claudia gave me her new King size bed (she bought a smaller bed just enough to watch TV with the kids and then shoo them to their own rooms) I have had a big problem. I´m sleeping in the old King size bed (a wonderful one too) and the new King size one is at the garage. Just in case I had to place plastics and old sheets over the mattress and when Humberto comes, he will have to leave his car out of the house. And with the violence there is and the added value for bad guys when they see it is a Jaguar, we prefer to get the car in the house. But today I had an inspiration. One of my close friends has an awful bed. When her husband was alive, they never thought to change it and now she doesn´t have the means. And she is big and overweight. I suddenly thought that maybe she was exactly the person who would like the old bed. So I called her. She talked to her son who has a friend with a van and on Tuesday they will take the bed that is in my room now and they will bring the other bed from the garage. Alejandra (my friend) was very happy and I am also happy that the bed will be used by someone that needs it and that I love. Nowadays, with the covid scare, I could have sold for a small price the lower part of the bed but nobody wants a mattress from someone they don´t know. So now everyone is happy!

We are living times where people are scared to buy a mattress from someone they do not know. At least your friend will enjoy your bed.

@marguicha She must be really thankful to you. I know that friends show more gratitude that our own family.

I am very happy to have thought of her. She works a lot and she can´t afford to retire although she is almost blind.
