It Was One of Those Mornings

I rose early for a change, these days I am not subject to the madness on the highway range. Today though I had many assigned to do tasks and hurried to start the car as others passed. There in that moment of anticipation the car expressed gurgled intense hesitation and all the lights came on in a flicker of warnings this was not a great start to my morning. There I stood outside the door frustrated and discouraged with the chore and you pulled in the driveway just behind me with a cup of coffee and the mechanical know how tree. You jiggled this and tweaked that knowing just where everything was at. Then as quickly as the rising dawn I was on my way and you were gone. Thank you, friend, you forgot your coffee.

Congratulations on your placement! A car that won't start irritates me to no end. Kindness can make all the difference. Enjoyed this.
