What a day this has been...

5 hours in a hospital waiting room. Took a friend to have a "quick" surgery done. I wasn't sure what was going on or what I needed to do, but we made it. I'm glad I was there because he needed someone. He's feeling much better now and I got a lot of reading done. But boy was it a long morning.

Flat tire. Don't know how or when it happened, but it did. I started changing it and definitely could have done it myself...but some nice guys came by who wanted to give me a hand. It was very nice of them and it took them a lot less time than it would have taken me.

Keys locked in the car. Yep...for the third time in my almost 4 and a half years as a driver I locked my keys in the car. Mom and Matthew and Heather all came to my rescue though, with a ride and my spare keys. I got to sit in front of Wal-mart and people watch for a little while.

Today I've been reminded over and over how much I need others. Why in the world do I think that I can go through life independent of anyone else? It has definitely been a humbling day. I wish I didn't have to learn lessons over and over again, but because I do, I'm glad that lessons are there to be learned. I'm definitely thankful for the nurses...Annie, Patty, and Joan, those three guys, and my family. These people all showed me kindness today and I pray that they are blessed. They all made my day full of annoyances, so much less annoying. :D
