I actually made a little money today. My friend Denise called this morning and asked if I was available to deliver flowers for her husband's flower shop. Today is Administrative Professional's Day (used to be Secretary's Day, guess there's no such thing as a secretary anymore!) and they were short delivery drivers. I have delivered for them the past 2 Valentines Days as a fund raiser for our church's women's ministries so I knew what to expect. I wasn't doing anything else (except going to the gym for a workout - skipped that), so I said yes. I took Benjamin to a friends house and took Zachary with me to help. We made 5 different deliveries, but 24 total arrangements (multiple arrangements to same business - for all the secretaries - oops, I mean administrative professionals). We worked about 2 hours and made $40. I gave Zachary $10. I really would have had a hard time on my own. So he was a big help. We figured out we used about $3 in gas. So, $37 - not bad for 2 hours work. I should do this more often. I wonder if they'll need help for Mother's Day!
I have been married since 1990 to a wonderful man. We have one (grown?) son on his own, one son in 8th grade who loves to beat his drums, one son in 5th grade who makes beautiful music on the piano, and a beautiful 2 yr old who loves everything pink, purple, and girly whom we adopted from foster care. After 22 years in New Mexico we have recently moved across the country. I love Jesus with all my heart. I love my men. I love my girl. I love to read. I love to knit. I love digital scrapbooking. I love chocolate. That about sums it up!
