Now, for the reasons I'm telling you this. Once upon a time it got to
be 5 degrees here and one of the people that we go talk to Miss.
D____'s pipes broke. Being who we are, we decided to go help her clean
up and such. One of the things we were asked to do is to replace a light
bulb that had gone out so we could see how much water damage was in the
closet... Sister Bradford (being the Almighty tall one) began to
unscrew the light cover so we could replace the bulb, after two screws
were loosed, to everyone's surprise and dismay water came pouring from
the cover/fixture right onto Sister Bradford. Of course I was thinking
"Don't Die, Don't get electrocuted, please be okay" and she was
frozen... soaking... but fine. (Sigh of relief). "Thankfully" we were at
Miss D's house which is Full of clothes of all sizes so sister Bradford
could let her's dry... She got a denim shirt with Rose Embroidery...
She looked awesome :D then (later) when we went to finish the job there
were a lot of dead light bulbs... Miss D commissioned me to draw faces
on them to make the cute, I willingly obliged, though I have no idea
what she used them for. :D I will send pics later... :D
That night we went to heart attack some returning members... I
was entrusted with the precious sticky notes full of love, and
commissioned to plaster their door and to ding dong ditch them. For
those of you who don't know, Almost all southern door's are mostly glass
making this task extremely difficult. Sister Bradford was acting as get
away driver... As I approached the house all was clear, so I crouched
to where only my arm and the sticky notes were in view. I quickly
plastered the door (we've practiced) and readied myself for the knock
and run... after knocking I shot off as fast as I knew how (not that
fast, but still)... all was well till I tried to cut through their lawn.
Beware Southern grass y'all... I went from Vertical to Horizontal in
about .2 seconds... Thankfully I recovered quickly (though muddy) and
made it to the Car without being sighted... Yes, my pride suffered more
than my body... but hey, everything happens for a reason. And they were
in church this Sunday (mission accomplished). :D :D
Okay miracle time. So we had to go to the store for a member,
and since usually we aren't supposed to otherwise I made a pact with
myself that I would use every opportunity to find while we were there.
As we got out of the Car my first opportunity to find arose. The lady
parked behind us was looking around on the ground. I called out "Is
everything all right ma'am?" She looked up and smiled. "I lost the cap
to my tire after checking the pressure" Forgetting that I was wearing a
white skirt I automatically hit the asphalt as Sister Bradford shown her
flashlight under the car... After grubbing about I found the lost cap.
:D Sister Bradford started in talking about who we were and I wrote down
her information, we had an awesome chat and we're going to call her
tomorrow to set up an appointment!!!! (another miracle was that my white
skirt wasn't dirty at all, God notices the little things :D) her name
is G___
While we were in the store we got two other referrals from
Customer Service A____ and C____. A. is super sweet :D Love her, and C
seems super nice but we had to hand him over to the Memphis elders...
But miracles happen when we put ourselves out there!!!! :D LOVE THE
SOUTH!!! God bless Y'all
Sincerely,
Sister Foster
