What A Surprise…

My morning started off like every other Saturday. Hubby making coffee and me waiting and watching the birds outside. Then hubby decides to mention some issue we are having with our fountain outside and how he is going to fix it. Needless to say we had a disagreement about how to fix it. All I could think was why is he being so nasty today.

So the day went on and I was preparing for what I thought was a visit from one of my friends. Being in the hotel business you understand the importance of a clean room and bed. So I prepared our Hernandez B&B. Fresh towels, flowers, chocolates and triangle folded toilet paper with stamp. So I go overboard for sure. I even have a guest book! Lol

The doorbell rang and it was Cary. She said oh Dave is getting things out of the car. I said ok and went to get the barking dogs. Then I noticed a group of people entering my house. I couldn’t recognize Lynette with her son glasses and who would think she would be in Sorrento, Fl from her home town Memphis, Tn. Then Jungling walked in and the tears overcame me. Seeing Brenda, Lynden, Angele, Cary and John. Wow so many memories, so many years have passed that I had not seen some of them. And for a quick moment cancer almost ruined the day. When I saw them all, a thought popped in my head. They are here because they think I am dying! And as quickly as the thought entered I took it out. No, these wonderful and loving individuals are here to share memories and experiences. Many many years of them. They are here to show me support and love. As I sat there and spoke with them I realized the impact we all have on each other. How we should live intentionally and not allow the world around us to consume us. It was a grateful day for me. One that I will cherish for sure.

I am blessed! I got this!
