Whataday / Thankful

68/365: 

As I sat with my morning coffee, considering James’s exhortation to be patient in trials, my hubby kissed me goodbye headed to work.

Seven minutes later this happened…

Then, thanks to my wonderful/amazing friend’s roadside assistance package, this happened…

There she goes... in all her glory…

Afterwards, amazing-roadside-assistance-friend and I took another friend some happy birthday flowers… :)

Then, just as I was about to dive into an after lunch project, my mother-in-law called to see if I could possibly bring by her spare key as she had mistakenly locked herself out of the house and her hubby was out of town.

Slight problem… her key was tucked safely away in my truck (not the problem), but the truck was currently in San Diego with Matt (problem).

However, mom did have one window that happened to be unlocked; it was approximately 7x16 inches… :/

I said I’d give it a whirl.

Sadly, as I was pulling the motorcycle out of the garage my foot slipped on the epoxy and the bike crashed on top of me and this happened…

Thankfully, my neighbor was able to help me get the bike upright again…

Mom was not joking about the size of the window...

I had to go in feet first because the window was up so high…

And this little operation may have required a giant ladder and some strange acrobatics…

BUT we did have success (eventually)!!!

  

Despite the day, my heart remained thankful….

Thankful that Matt was safe, thankful that he was still able to make it to his cases on time, thankful for a friend who dropped everything to rescue me, thankful for roadside assistance, thankful that the car could be fixed, thankful to have friends birthday’s to celebrate, thankful for camera phones, thankful the motorcycle tipped over in the garage and not in the street, thankful for an open window to crawl through, thankful for the Word of God that lights our path…

But I just may avoid studying all passages on trials for the rest of my life… jk ;)
