Grateful Month - Day 27

I am a self-proclaimed spoiled person. :)

Today I am most grateful for the special ladies in my life that contribute to my well-being and sanity.  Sandy Hanson and Tammie Harrington.  Sandy does my nails, and it's a mini-therapy session when I see her.  She taught me how to make the BEST pickles I have ever eaten.  She is the best listener ever and HILARIOUS.  I've loved getting to know her!  Tammie cleans my house** and does a FANTASTIC job!  She cleaned my house for over two years before I even met her.  Talk about trust!

I've tried going without nails...I lasted 2 months.  I've had them on since 1997 (except a short time in 2001 when I burnt my hand and had to take them off for physical therapy) and it feels more natural than my own nail.  And, I haven't cleaned my bathroom in 9 years.  Don't think I'm going to start now.

It is such a joy (and I think, necessity) to do something for yourself that is special.  The nails are for me.  The house cleaning is for both of us.

See?  Spoiled.  And grateful.


**Side story:  When we lived in Idaho, Trav's best friend started a house keeping business.  He used our house to train his employees so for a while we got cleaning for free.  And once you have your house cleaned by someone else, you just can't go back.
