Our house phone just rang at 6:15AM. It was a 91 year old, “old maid” from our city, wanting an address to mail a card to my husband’s Nanny that had hip surgery. Whenever she calls, we just giggle with amusement and amazement, as she still lives on her own with her cat. Clearly she had to call at 6:15AM because she was awake and time on Earth is precious for all of us.
My new favorite Doris line – “Oh crud, my pen is a dud” after a couple mins, she returns with a new pen to finish writing the address. (BTW – Doris still has a column in the local newspaper)
It’s not uncommon for her to call us. Often it’s to say “I need my lawn mowed” & click – hangs up the phone. I pray that I will be this independent, witty, and simply alive at 91!
What can you do today, with a sense of urgency? Who can you call or write a note to?
Have an awesome day!
Blessings,
Robyn
I love this! I bet that lady gets more done in a day than I do in a week because of this “let’s get ‘er done attitude!”
