Please let me in

I was too consumed with Prison Break last night to blog. Not that I wasn't thankful for things, I just couldn't pull myself away from the television to write about them. So we get two things today!

Yesterday I was thankful for my (#20) elderly client who made me smile. He was so funny. I was standing outside the door waiting to go in and all the sudden I heard him yell, "Erica, COME ON!" Then I came into the room and he promptly told me, "Erica, I have a hearing aid. So if it looks like I can't hear you, I can't, I took it out." That just made me laugh to myself the whole massage. (If you don't find it funny try reading it in a really old man voice.) The rest of the day was really busy and tiring, but he just made my day. I am grateful for those little things that people do to make me smile.

Today I am really thankful for (#21) Shannon, my co-worker. As I was helping to close up the spa tonight I went to bring our plant in from outside. What I didn't realize was that someone had already locked the door. I found myself locked out, holding a giant plant, in the freezing cold.  I knew we had some customers that should be heading out soon so I tried to be patient and think warm thoughts. They didn't come. Lucky for me after a few minutes Shannon noticed I was missing and came to find me. It's nice to know that people realize when you are gone. I was very grateful to her for letting me back inside the building. So word to the wise, check the door before you grab your plants.
