Savebucks!

It was 41 degrees this morning. It took great effort to get off the bed. Aches and pains all over. The poor boy fixed his own breakfast. 5, yes FIVE loads of laundry done but need to be folded/ironed as the case may be. A quick visit to the bank later in the day, packing and then finally, PACKING (even more). Argh!

But then you see, even days like these have these teensy weensy incidents that put a huge smile on my face.

All groggy, I managed to drop the boy off at work, still in no mood to make me a cup of coffee or tea. So I drove to the closest drive through Starbucks only to see this huge line ahead of me. I could have well got off the car, picked me a cup of something. But like I said, it was 41 degrees and the heated seats in my car stuck to my butt (or the other way around). So I waited, and waited, and then ordered and waited and waited...

Finally, I reached the pick up window and grabbed my cup. Just as I was reaching into my wallet, I heard "Your Chai Latte is on the house today as you had to wait for more than 5 minutes for it".


(Biiiiiig smile)

It's all worth it.

I'm blessed. I've had my mom, friends and now my husband to pack for me. Why do I need to learn to pack?

When one sees a huge curtain-print bag lying dismally in the middle of a floor strewn with clothes, shoes, makeup and accessories, one can't help but want to clean up.. to end the bag's agony if not one's own.

And a shamelessly grinny grin on the face of the person who is supposed to be doing it does NOT help matters!

:P
