Life is funny, this past month has been very stressful and full of real blessings.The tornado hit and took out 40 trees, but we met people who helped and showed us real caring and kindness.

I totaled my Civic car which I loved.  It was a 2001 but my butt impression was there for good.  I was not hurt and met Tim the man I hit who was by far the nicest man I had met in a long time.  Patient, kind and loving.  A policewoman who didn't give me a ticket and took the time to make me relax and laugh.  A husband who was just greatful I wasn't hurt and just reminded me it was "just a car."

 Broken washer now fixed.  Met nice prop;e at the laundromat.  Got to read a book I haven't had time to read for a month.

House left with 3 broken windows, a partial roof and various other maladies.  We now have a new roof, getting new windows throughout the house.  Getting the soffitts and eave troughs the color we should have selected 10 years ago.

I had leaned that nothing cannot be overcome and nothing is bad if one blessing can be gleaned from it.  I am thankful I was born looking for the blessings.
