another thing i'd never seen before

ahead of me, it was raining. but instead of the rain coming straight down or at an angle, it was coming straight down...for awhile...and as it got closder to the ground, the wind pulled it to the side. wild.

this was coming our way today

the weather chick on tv said it was a "shelf" cloud. that's one scary-looking shelf cloud.

manifesting

Wild sorta few days around here...

incident number one:

Friday morning...on my way to work, i'm thinking i need to go to the ATMto grab cash to repay Brenda for the tip money from Thursday's lunch (which was free thanks to Brian at Hooters!...another bit of manifestation!), when my phone rings. it's 5 minutes to 8am and the person on the other end of the phone is the GM/owner of the company. i hear:

A3:"where are you?"
me: "at the corner of Cleveland and 933"
A3: "are you gonna go by a McDonald's on your way in?" to which i begin to laugh...
me: "what do you need?"

i stop by the local Mickey D's to grab him some breakfast. i pay with my ATM card and he hands me a $10 bill when i get to the office. voila!! cash to pay Brenda!!

incident number two:

Friday morning around 11am. i'm thinking...you know, it's summer. i should really get a pedicure. you know, treat myself to something pamper-y and girl-y. at 2:30pm, my text message goes off. it's pam...the sales mgr at the chr station in the building, asking if i am returning to the office on Friday. i text her i should be back around 4pm or so...why? she has a last minute commercial for me to produce and that she will give me a $50 JaRoss gift certificate for my trouble. voila! there's my pedicure!!

incident number three:

Saturday morning. i'm driving thru the fruit belt county on my way to hair appointmentm, when i see signs announcing the arrival of homegrown, juicy strawberries. i resolve to stop at one of the roadside stands on my return trip to experience the first strawberries of the season. on my way home, it's raining. not just raining, but pouring. no strawberries for me, or so i think. my phone rings at 4pm. it's dad, who has just bought me a quart of gorgeous, scrumptious strawberries. voila! strawberries to top the gf vanilla pound cake i baked Friday night!

incident number four:

Sunday afternoon. i'm at mom and dad's for lunch, thinking i'll make a run to Target to grab a few of the neccessities after lunch. Mom says, hey Mike...why don't you follow Shell home so you can get the dressers and secretary out of her guest rooms? i tell her that's cool, but i was going to make a run to Target today to get coffee. she says...there are three cans of Maxwell House downstairs in the pantry. you can have one of them if you want. voila! potential Monday-morning crisis averted!!

conclusion. i'm manifesting like a wild woman! thank you thank you thank you for the blessings!!
