Well, today was Monday. Not a usual Monday. Not for me. Maybe you heard the ground rumbling under foot. Maybe it only felt like that to me.
Today was the day my world rocked.
My family surprised me with a lunch out to celebrate a special day just a few days early. Shout out to Honey Pie café in Bay View. Amazing chicken biscuit pie.
Not only did I get a great lunch with some of my favorite peeps, they geeked me up with an Apple iPad mini.
Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would own one. We are not in the top 1 percent. Heck, we’re not even in the top 1000th percent.
I don’t have a dishwasher, never have I had one. I don’t have granite or marble countertops in my kitchen either. Can you imagine, I prepare food on 50 year old laminate. The same countertop that my grandma prepared her food on. My appliances are white.
Not stainless steel.
All my kitchen knives are dull. Which is why I sliced off part of my thumb while trying to be healthy yesterday. Cutting up cucumbers. It would be easier to slice veggies with my fingernails than with my knives.
I don’t want sympathy. I am perfectly happy with my situation. Its just that now I have an iPad mini tablet and I am not sure who I am and my place in the world anymore.
I hope my friends will still love me for me and not just for my geeky toy.
Thanks for listening.
Happy Monday
