Different morning

Hubby and I are used to the quiet life. Before hubby got sick, he was working on a 3-D printer project with a young community college student. Very nice young man. The guy was supposed to be here in the afternoon today. I was just thinking how I would get the garbage can to the curb when it could be slippery out and I heard a noise. I looked out to see young Mister at the front gate. Hubby was in the shower. Mister helped me get the garbage can out. I found a scary patch of ice but managed to stay up right. Hubby came out of the shower, Mr. went upstairs and started a project on the printer. The phone rang. It was a friend from where we used to live. Surprise. We had a nice chat. Our mornings are never generally so busy, not even on holidays.

Ice is the worst! I'm glad you had help with the trash and had a nice surprise phone call. Thank you SO MUCH for "Grace". The artwork is superb; and I can't wait to sit down and read about your house and your personal memories. Hope you have a good week.

@LindaOhio YAY!!!!!! You got it. Spoiler alert: be aware that I am a fiction writer. My Tales are loosely based on facts but often are well, hog wash. What you read is not what happened. What you read is taken from feelings and vibes and imagination. Hope you enjoy Grace.

@LindaOHio Just don't say "heads off". That might hurt.

You did have a busy morning. Glad you didn't fall on the ice. That is what I dislike about winter only, ice.

@Dena91 You're right. I dislike ice, too. Concrete steps can be ornery things to deal with.

I'm glad the young man was willing to help you with the garbage and that you stayed upright on the short trip.

That’s scary going in and out on slippery ice. I’m glad I’m in Georgia where we seldom have ice.
