Received a gift card for my birthday. To Charming Charlie. To the uninitiated (as I totally was) this is one of those uber-accessory (does not translate to expensive) stores. (I've often wondered where women get those necklaces, bags, bracelets, and shoes. Now I know: Charming Charlie.) I got a bit of sensory over-load just walking in there.
Came out with this very cute pink watch. Yes, a pink one. A complete luxury. I have lots of pink clothes, it will be fun to wear!
Heading home, I remembered too late I was entering a re-do of a major intersection. Lots of big-time delays. Noticed a small detour sign - which didn't make much sense to me because it headed into a dead-end street. Decided to brave it. Took a long, meandering, circuitous route under the road I wanted till I finally landed on the far side; and with only a couple right turns ended up exactly where I wanted to be. Not only did I not sit in traffic delays, my drive was through a rural-like area that was much more pleasant. One of those times I was glad I took the "road less traveled."
Coming out of a business I noticed (and how could you not?) this row of pear trees. Their fall colors are so lovely. Heavenly Father truly graced this world with beauty.
Heard a phrase that has stuck in my head: a true and faithful heart. Sounds nice. I hope for that.
And I'm grateful today is Wednesday. Only two more sleeps and then My Love will be home. Can hardly wait!
