Thank you

Last week during my lunch hour I was talking with a friend and decompressing about my day and frustrations.  I then felt bad and apologized.  They said that is what friends are for.  

I came home.  Saw a new pretty center piece on the table.  Saw my mail sitting next to it and grabbed it.  Went down to my room and changed.  On my way up the stairs my sister asked me if i got my package.    I said no.  She said well you can't miss it, it's on the table.  I laughed and said haha ya. I got my mail.  She said no it's huge you can't miss it.  I said no. I don't know what you are talking about.  She said well look again it's sitting on the table.  I went upstairs looked again. Saw nothing.  She was was rich behind me and said see, told you it was huge.  I said that is not mine.  Those flowers are not for me.  She chuckled and said yes they are.  I argued back about three more times saying, no they aren't. Those are not for me.  She said read the card.  I said Those are not mine.  She just kept laughing.  I opened the card and it read:  hope this cheers you up.    That was it! no name. no nothing.  I thought about it for about one second then realized who they were from.  What a nice, kind, thoughtful friend! :)
 Aren't they GORGEOUS?!!!    Thank you !!

Summer is here!


I'm a little bit behind on my blogging.  It's been a crazy two weeks! pictures to come, but I'll start with the most recent....I have found the love of my life, (aka shoes)!!  I'm going to be wearing them all summer long and have/get the coolest tan line ever. Must be jealous ;)  I love them so much I need to go buy another pair; and lucky for me I just got a coupon in the mail for $10, so... I will be ordering another pair this weekend!! :)

What would you do?

I walked into the bank today to deposit my check and noticed a long line (about four people in front of me) for only one teller, but then Immediatley noticed a little bit of commotion at the front counter and wondered what was going on for one second but then put it together and assumed a girl had fainted and then realized that it had just happened about ONE SECOND ago, as I was walking in.  I looked around the people, and saw the lady at the counter kneeling down and her daughter sitting/in the process of laying down.  

The nice man behind her in line knelt down and held the girl up right so the mom could finish doing her transaction at the counter.  We were all very curious and worried.  I heard the girl (about 12 or 13 years old) ask, "what happened?" the mom said, "I don't know honey."  The nice man kept holding the girl sit up while the mom got all her things together.  While this was happening the girl behind me had watched it happened (she was standing at the island desk filling out her paper when I walked in), and said, "I don't know what happened, she was just standing there then she fell."  The mom was pretty embarrassed and quite surprised that this had happened and didn't know what to do, but she was handling it very well.  This older man could not leave this mom so he stood up holding the young girl and carried her to their car.
By the time the girl fell and carried her to the car and came back into the bank, the line had grown by about four more people behind us.  So he came in and stood at the end of the line.  But the guy in front of me, me and the girl behind me told him to go back up to his spot. he kindly declined.

The only teller available got stuck with another long transaction so the line was not moving.
Finally, another teller came to help with the line.  Then line was moving now.   Right before it was to be my turn the lady behind me offered to let the man go in front of us.  he said "I'm ok really thanks."  she responded with, "Being the good samaritan of the day you should go in front of us."  He smiled and kindly said, "Thank you so much for offering. but really I'm fine thanks.  after all this is my second time to the bank today, so I'm ok. But thank you for offering."  :)  

So lesson learned:  be a good samaritan.  you never what will happen. don't lock your knees at the teller counter while at the bank with your mom.  haha jk.
I don't know and we all don't know why that happened.  The mom was in as much of shock as we were.  But the girl was definitely pale as they walked by.   I hope she is fine now.  but it was kind of scary, and kind of a crazy story...

Hope you all had a good day! :)
