Death link to too much red meat

yeah yeah yeah.

It’s bad for you.

*rolling eyes and sighing*

We’ll avoid the topic of the Oakland policemen that were shot in the line of duty last week because honestly - I don’t want to go there.

We’ll also avoid the topic of my doctor for my workman’s comp injury being a total jerk to me at our last appointment because I wasn’t ‘getting better’.  Guess my body is to adhere to your tight schedule Dr. Chicklet?

We’ll also avoid the misery of work.

So you’ll NEVER guess what happened today.

No no, not THAT - I wish though….

*pulling head out of the gutter*

I got a card from my kids’ grandmother out in Alabama and so I open it and BEHOLD -

A 500.00 CHECK!

I had to double take.

Now after marveling at this beautiful specimen of a check that had MY name on it - I momentarily flashed on adding a few zeros and moving to the moon never to dabble in the sordid business of child welfare again, but then I regained my composure and read the card.

In a nutshell - Thanks!

So alas, after I show it to my boss tomorrow - I purchased a fitting Easter card in which to mail it back to her (certified of course).  

But wow, that was pretty doggone awesome.

That’s like getting a kiss on the head from the universe.

Dear Universe,

Thanks for that gift.  I am grateful, but next time could you make it a tall dark drink of water with a heart of gold and an income to match?  and thrilled that you’ve noticed me.

*knocks her head against the wall*

Now you’ll have to excuse me - it’s been quite a day

I’ll have some

charred 

carcass

and a 

bit of grape

juice.

    A kiss on the forhead from the Universe….I’ll take it! I feel joy for you that you received that recognition.
    Well done on the cooking! You can also quick roast cauliflower, I’ll look up the recipe. A friend of mine does this and says it is awesome - tastes like carbs, but isn’t.

    That was very nice of Grandma. Bless her. And you deserve the kiss! It is nice that someone notices what you do! I agree, you deserve a hot drink of something about 6 feet tall wearing nothing but a BIG red ribbon. Wink Wink!
