There is good in the world , I am grateful

This is saturday, Up at 5:30 in the morning. I had to take my loving other half to class this morning, he had to be there at 8 am. and was to be there for 12 whole hours. What can a person learn for that length of time, in a driving class? Well , as always, we are people that never take our time getting anywhere. If we know we have to be somewhere, we will be there at least half hour before. And wait, get impatient and wish we could have timed it better. My loving half decided he would have me drop him off at the Shell station that wasn't that far from where he had to be. And that he would walk from there to it. That is what is nice about a small town, you really never have to go to far . In fact. the City hall. court house. and even the jail is all in walking distance from each other. So , even though I had plans of doing some errangs , it was still to early for me to do them. Such as stopping at the post office and sending off the mail I had. Then from there to Save-a-lot to pick a few things we needed before our shopping day of the 18th. Bread , milk that sort of thing. So home I went. I figure I would give it a resonable time to set out again and do what I needed to do . Since waiting until 8 pm would mean the post office as well as save-a-lot would be close. Lucy came with me. in fact she had came along both times we went out today. She seems to enjoy getting into the truck and heading off. With her in the truck I knew I couldn't be that long and that I only needed to get the things I needed, get out. And NOT BUY EXTRA . This all gave me a few hours away from the house. By the time I did get home it was 10:30. Good thing though. The man who was to board his daughters horse here before the holidays, with the exchange of services. boarding and bushhogging the barn , showed up. He canceled boarding his horse here, since his daughter had found a neighbor who was willing to use their pasture for her horse. ( besides it was only for three months was the agreement) We understood. and was only disapointed at the idea of not having the horse. Sure the 80.00 dollars was nice. But ever since moving here. we have longed for a horse. When we had gotten a a small taste of a horse here .WAS the time Two white horses were in our pasture .That was so short lived . It would be the next day the owners would come and take them ,all because someone complained that they were causeing thier dogs to bark ............. WAy to much. ( of which we knew who this person was) His house is at the corner of our pasture.and he raises german sherpers) Any way , John Had told us he was a man of his world. He wanted to still bush hog our barn area for us. Since this was the week before CHristmas. He hadn't showen . We didn't think much of it. And we had try to tell him that we understood that it wasn't nessery to do that. But He was stud fast . Stating he was a man of his word. ( NOw how many have you met in your life time that stood by their word:?) So, today he came with tractor and friend. He not only did the barn area he even took his weed wackor and did right up to the barn itself plus the fence. I stood feeling some what quitly All that time and work. In the end he not only did what he said he would do , but he stood there telling me of the plant growth that couldn't be in a area of cattle or any livestock. He pointed out Burr plants. They pick you . Nasty things, but they also could do harm to animals if swolled . He pointed out so much I ended up making notes. When in Maryland I had brought brown eggs. If you have ever had a good fresh farm brown egg, you know what am talking about. Try breaking it along side a store bought one. you can see the difference let alone the taste of one. I wanted to know if I could find one close by , So I asked John since he was of the area. He told me , but then said I could raise my own. Now don't laugh , I had thought about that . chickens . my own eggs. He went about telling me what I could do , I could even use part of the barn if I wanted to . I didn't have to have chicken coup as I thought. In the end. This man not only bush hog , or kept his word. But he was so willing to teach . gave of himself, in a way of learning what it meant to be on a farm. I'm not sure if I can do the chicken thing. and I still at times wonder if starting my dream so late in life if I will ever get it!> But this I do know. God is and has always sent my way the people I needed to learn from . Or just get some idea. I know I can get books and read what I need to . I know there could be other ways of doing some of this. But in the long run and what seems to always come about , is that .... THERE ARE FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS,.... Willing to give of themself. with out a price tag. I am truly grateful. And know if I doubt myself. God will always find away to show me different. I just have to keep an open mind and just be me ! AND LEARN! .
