My Instead: I selected all the frames and sizes of photos for my photography table at the LTDA Holiday Boutique.
The Lincoln Trail
Decorative Artists 10th Annual Holiday Boutique was coming Thursday!
And I had claims on a photography table as part of this boutique. Yikes! The last
two days, that I had originally planned to prepare for this event, were not utilized to
their full extent for various family reasons. Time to put it into full throttle!
My girlfriend Annette
was more than willing to help me in my time of "procrastination-driven" need. And as an added bonus, I believe
God had mercy on my plight because the weather turned out to be dreary
and rainy, perfect for indoor activity. Wal-Mart, on the other hand, had very
little mercy and was causing most of my pain with glitches in their photo lab system.
Anyway, Annette and I felt
no guilt about NOT being outside and got busy with the enormous task at hand. Picture
and frames were sprawled out all over the living room floor as we chose which
photograph would look best in which frame. I kept a computer log of all the choices while Annette cleaned the glass
in all the frames. We worked well
into the night. It was a marathon. Annette never complained...never appeared discontent. She took ownership of her role in this endeavor like a head surgeon
intent on saving the life of her patient. Her unrelenting support probably kept
me from losing it!
Learning how well we
work together in a stressful situation was pinnacle to me. This person is
wonderful in the true sense of the word. Every time I’m with her, she amazes me
with her inner beauty. And all I have to do is be deserving.
