adventure, appreciate good health, birthday celebration, BSers, completely over surgery, stuck in the ruts, thanks be
my friend picked me up and we headed out to get another friend before meeting the other BSers at a local restaurant for a birthday celebration lunch…
for a number of years we would purchase a gift for the birthday person and it became a very difficult process as we really all have everything we need or want… so it has moved to doing whatever the birthday person would like to do, and usually includes eating out…
we were celebrating two birthdays because we hadn’t been able to make up our minds about what we would like to do or find a time…
on our way we drove up a street one over from our friend’s house and ended up in front of a woman in a van who got stuck in the ruts on the street… right now many streets have deep ruts due to all the snow we’ve had lately…
the snow is above the heron’s belly… first time ever…
we sat and waited a few minutes as she struggled to get her vehicle out, but between the ruts, her lack of skill and the car parked behind her, she was having a rough time… finally we got out and went to help… she was a young mom with at least 2 kids in the car… we tried directing and pushing the van as she tried to move it, but we weren’t quite strong enough… eventually a neighbour came out and he actually lifted the van as we pushed, and we finally got it moved… it was quite the adventure…
once again it made me appreciate that I am completely over my surgery and well enough to be able to push a van with no side effects…
thanks be…
