Wonderful Weekend

Greg started the weekend on Friday night by helping a friend of mine move. They took two trips from the old location to the new location and on the second trip, the rain started. Unfortunately, I had to work late because we had two late loans to close and end of month reports to do. Greg was exhausted by the time he got home and he felt really bad for my friend, because she was suffering with allergies and sinus problems.


Saturday morning Greg woke up early, went to the grocery store and prepared the breakfast delight. He brought the mixture to my parents’ home and served them Banana Pancakes. This all came to be when we were in Vegas and Mom ordered Banana Pancakes. What was given to her ~ regular pancakes with slices of bananas on top! Greg told her at that point, “When we get home, I’ll make my famous Nana Pancakes for you!” True to his word, Greg did so. Mom called me later on to say, “Those were the MOST DELICIOUS pancakes I’ve ever had!”


I didn’t go to my parents’ home when Greg made them breakfast. I slept in late. Greg woke me up when he came in and said, “I saw how your Dad spoils your Mom with breakfast in bed. It was nice.” Then he held out his hand and said, “Your Mom props the pillows up behind her” and he did so with me. Greg smiled as he spoiled me with breakfast in bed too. What a wonderful man!


That afternoon we both went over to my friend’s home to help her with two more trips back and forth to load and unload a home full of items. Isn’t it amazing what we can accumulate in a house? You never know just how much you have until you have to move it! She has a lovely new home and I’m super happy for her! Greg said, “It’s perfect for her.” It’s classy, inviting, open floor plan, newly renovated and a large backyard.


It couldn’t be a smaller world, because she happened to move directly across from another couple that we know. The husband and wife came over and were a big help in moving the washer and dryer and later, the sofa. It made me feel good when my friend who just moved hugged the husband and wife couple that helped. It was the forming of a friendship. As Greg said, “They are (all three of them) good people.”

It made me smile to see my friend smile. She deserves a lot of happiness in her life. She even did a "happy dance" as Greg says. In fact, we all did a happy dance, can you imagine? 5 adults doing their individual happy dance, Lol. It's moments like that ~ little treasures :)

Makes me
~ feel good to help a friend
~ happy that Greg did so much to help a friend who has done a lot for us
~ pleased that her new neighbors are friends and came out to help
~ laughing for our dance

Counting many blessings.
