I woke up early this morning and went over to my friend's house and helped build a wheelchair ramp to the side door. She broke her ankle while traveling for work in Turkey and would have had a challenging time getting into her house without the ramp.
I am not much of a carpenter myself, but I am quite a good assistant and I learned a good amount of stuff while carrying wood, holding pieces together, clamping, designing, digging, and some other stuff. I had a real fun time today doing that and am thankful to be part of such a great and creative community!
They arrive home tonight at 10 PM and will find out this great surprise when they arrive. We left them a signed note and ribbon to show our love and affection (along with the ramp of course). I wish I could see the look on their faces (hopefully happy ones!) and wish them all the best for her quick recovery!
I am looking forward to creating even more wonderful and thoughtful ideas as the holiday and family season revs up!
Many blessings to all the wonderful people in my life!
