What is really important......

I live a small and quiet life. It is productive in some ways, but there are days you have to wonder.

What IS really important?!?

I am so tired this morning. I got home from work last night tired. Loooong day! And then when I went out to get in the truck, I found my drivers side back tire on it's way to being square. I don't like square tires. They make me cranky.

So I went to get my jack out, only to remember that it wasn't there, but sitting beside the horse trailer where this weekend, I was going to change the spare off of the trailer and put the tire I just had repaired back on. I feel like lately all I have done is change tires. But having round tires on all your vehicles is really important.

It wouldn't have been so bad, but I am baby sitting a girlfriends pup while she is on an over night trip. So here I am, with a pup on leash and needing to change a tire, with no jack and I am in my scrubs from work. And not just ANY scrubs, mind you. They are predominantly WHITE. Just what you want to wear when changing a tire. Especially when you have to let ALL that water out of the water tank in the bed of the truck (About 275 gallons of water that you just picked up for your horses)! That. Is. Just. GREAT.

So long story short, I borrowed a jack from a co-worker and after an hour of grubbing around on the ground in white scrubs, struggling with lug nuts that the shop put on too tight, I have a ROUND tire on the truck. My audience was approving.

 

What is up with that EAR pointing the way north???

 

So after stopping to pick up MORE water for the horses, Izzy and I headed home. Feeding animals and being too tired to fix something for myself, we headed off to bed.



This morning I woke up to this.........

 

My heart melted and I am reminded of what is REALLY important. I love you Izzy.
