A Very Lucky Day

November 7th, 2007 at 02:36 am

Lady Luck smiled on me 3 times today. The lucky events, in order of increasing importance:

1. I found organic frozen Earth's Best waffles on clearance at Target for $1 a box, and they even have a cute picture of Cookie Monster on the carton! Smile

2. DH returned from an overseas business trip, bearing gifts from family and associates as he always does. I know this will sound ungrateful, but often the gifts are something I neither want nor need and I have to find a way to get rid of them (donate, pass on to someone else, or sell), but this time they were absolutely perfect: A bit of cash (from his mom ... I wish she wouldn't but I can't find a gracious way to tell her not to), some chocolates (yee-haw!), and 6 pairs of socks! I am so low on socks and now I don't have to buy them --- They were exactly what I needed!

3. Now for the real doozy: As soon as we got back from the airport (after picking DH up) he wanted to check the oil in the car and told me to go on inside since it was cold. 2-1/2 hours later I went outside to find he had left the car doors wide open with his briefcase sitting on the back seat!!!!! Yes - there was cash in the briefcase, and yes, it was still there. Oh my goodness, that was a close call. I have no idea how many people drove by who could have just grabbed that briefcase and ran, but none of them did, and I am so grateful. Note to self: Do not leave DH alone with valuables when he is jet-lagged!

They say bad news comes in 3's. Maybe good luck does too.
