Day 36

My first:
I shoveled snow from my client's driveway after I left without their knowing
and I climbed into a portable dog kennel with two of my grand kids.
When I
left my client after cleaning their house today, I decided to shovel the snow
off their driveway. They had no idea that I was going to do it. The husband
Glenn has a very bad heart and the wife Barbara has arthritis. I had shoveled a
path for me to walk up to the house and when I went inside I offered to do the
rest of the driveway. Glenn said that I didn’t have to do that. I went about my
business and as usual was thinking about what I was going to do today for my “first”.
Eventually, I thought “I’ll shovel their driveway when I leave!” It goes without saying that I should
have done this regardless. I know, I know. No one likes the word “should”. Let’s
just say this was a very voluntary “should”. It makes one a better person, if
only for the 15 minutes that you’re doing it. After all, I have a healthy body and they do
not. It’s just a matter of sharing my blessing!
Also, I
watched my grand kids tonight while my son and daughter-in-law went out to eat.
Abbey, Andy and I were having a lot of fun playing downstairs, hiding in the
closet, and just doing whatever we could find that looked like fun. They had a
portable dog kennel that their other grandma brought over to play with. Well,
the three of us decided that we could ALL fit into the kennel. Needless to say
it was easier for them to get in than it was for me! They loved it! The moral of my story? As long
as I can, it’s part of my plan!
