We had friends over for dinner this week.
That's big.
We had friends over for dinner this week!
These are good friends who live nearby, but they hadn't even met G yet.
It's enough of a challenge for me to work, fill (somewhat) my son's emotional needs, get my house (kind of) clean, and accomplish all of the other bare necessities each day. Socializing doesn't own a time slot. And inviting someone to dinner is WAY outside my reality.
So how did this happen?
My coworker Diane - for no reason - cooked me a lasagna. A full lasagna! Just brought it to work and told me dinner was ready. I called my friends, and they came over. Voila!
So, not only did Diane feed my family (today & probably twice more from the leftovers), but she also gave me a party - a reunion with dear friends. For no particular reason.
Diane is probably more busy than I am. She also works full time. Volunteers extensively with two organizations and her church. Is married. Has 4 (grown) children. Has plenty of her own friends. But chose to bless me.
I'd like to be that nice some day.
Today, I'm just glad Diane is that nice.
