Today’s Left Turn…

Tonight I was waiting to turn left onto a four-lane one-way street. A truck was nearing in the third lane over, and I needed the fourth lane, so I was waiting.

The truck was nearly upon us, so I was taking my foot off the brake to get moving. The woman behind me started honking like it was the end of the world.

When I did turn and pull all the way across, safely, into that lane, she shot out into the first lane and was apparently screaming at me from her car – with the windows rolled up on both cars.

I made it home safe and sound. She was able to pull on the road safe and sound. Apparently she was not grateful that I didn’t back up and hit her when she started honking.

At least I got to see stupid today.

This is a picture of a highway, but it was not the road on was on. It's just the road to somewhere.

The Drive Home

Today I ran an errand on the other side of town. Since the “back roads” were quicker to travel home, I enjoyed a country drive this evening. But the closer I drove to home, the more people I thought of in my life.

About half way home, I thought of my niece and nephew who both own homes nearby. I enjoy their company and am so glad they are doing well.

A little further and I saw the street to take to one of my cousin’s home. She’s a fellow scrapbooker, but has been working too much to go lately. I always feel loved in her company.

Next was a new friend from my scrapbooking life. She is a great cat mamma and is very creative. Her home has a full room dedicated to scrapbooking, but she allows her husband to think he has a desk in there. (No, he has a chair, the desk drawers are hers.)

Soon I drove by our neighbors only a couple of miles from home. They are so good to us and my mom and I both enjoy any time we get to spend with them.

Within only a quarter-mile was my sister’s home. I was glad to see she was already home for the night since she can work long hours. I need to spend more time with her.

I encountered more homes of loved ones before I made it to my own. What a blessing to be able to take a drive and encounter joyous memories of so many people.

I pray you find good memories the next time you’re traveling home.
