I drove to Manhattan today to visit some dear friends. I was going to do an errand for a friend in Manhattan but turns out my help wasn’t needed. I went ahead and drove over anyways and had a great visit with my friends.
I was low on gas and forgot to stop in Manhattan to get some. I almost turned around and went back to get some but decided to try it. When I hit the lake north of Council Grove my gas gauge started flashing and it showed I had 0 miles of range left. I called on every guardian angel around me to help me get to the gas station. It worked and I made it. I put 7.954 gallons of gas in my car. I have an 8 gallon tank. Cut it way too close for my comfort.
Some friends organized a farewell dinner for Kathy this evening. We went in at 5:00 and didn’t get home until 8:00. It was a fun event filled with lots of laughter and friendship. Kathy touched a lot of people in Chase County while she was here and will be greatly missed. My guys staying with me came and joined in the fun. They made some new friends by the time the evening was over.
Tomorrow morning I am going to KC. I told Nicole I would be there around 10:00. I need to get myself organized and things pulled together yet. I have a list so hopefully I won’t forget anything. Only staying one night so won’t need many clothes.
I didn’t get to take my walk today as we got home after dark. Doubt I get to take a walk tomorrow or Saturday either. Next week looks promising though as I don’t have a lot going on. I will need to do some housecleaning Sunday morning as I have guests coming in Sunday late afternoon.
Grateful for dear friends and the richness they add to my life, grateful for the friends that showed up to support Kathy tonight, and grateful for my guardian angels helping me not run out of gas.
