I did good
TODAY I actually did something right tonight. Otherwise, it would not have been a good situation. David called me from the grocery store to see if there was anything else we needed. And he told me he had gotten 2 money orders for a couple of bills he needed to pay. He said something about stamps, and I said not to worry, I had stamps. So, tonight, as we were sitting at our respective desks, I got out two envelopes, put stamps and return labels on them, and handed them to him. This look comes over his face. He looks in his overall pockets. And then he starts cussing. He had LOST those 2 money orders. They were for $75.00 each. $150, and he didn’t have a clue to where they were. 10 minutes later…he comes back in the house, and has them. A little worse for the wear, they are wet — he had found them, outside, in the snow (he’d been working on his truck). Whew!
So, I instructed him to say “thank you, Carolyn”. If I hadn’t given him to envelopes, he probably woudln’t have thought of them…it could have snowed tonight — he very well could have not seem them til spring, if ever. Glad it was him, though, and not me! and he couldn’t blame this on me for a chance …..well….actually, in his “logical” way of doing things, yes, he could. If I would just go pay them for him….but I’m not gonna do it! He can just take the little extra time it will take him to do it. He’s not driving. He can MAKE the time….
