Lucky to give and receive

Look at that picture! That’s build your own state fair right there. Dave brought me Usinger cheddar jalapeno sausages from Wisconsin and I got pretzel buns at Cub. There’s part of me that wonders why anyone eats anything else. Keith and I each had one (I shared!) for dinner, and saved the other two for tomorrow. I couldn’t let them be all gone right away. That was a wonderful gift he brought – and remember, there is very little packing space when you are traveling by motorcycle, so it was even more special than you thought!

I met with the high school principal today to chat about my helping out my friend going through chemo. I made it clear that I am completely flexible – if I am needed, I will be there. If I am not needed, no need to worry about me – I am happy to stay home. I assumed that was me showing my lazy. She thanked me and told me I was giving them such a great gift.

Hmmm.

Perspective is always an interesting thing, isn’t it?
