Life's Worth the Living

A live dog is better than a dead lion. That is a proverb right out of the Bible and has been my standard response to OC at Ingel's when he answered my inquiry of how are you with I'm here. Lately he has been answering with a bit of hopefulness.

Yesterday was another day fully worth living. My darling friend beat me to Woody's Filling Station and after her arrival called me as I was loading my car with groceries. "Where are you? We have customers." I missed the leather clad customers. I am sure they will be back, because they feasted on Kathy's fun zeal and zest for life.

Our only customers of the day were a couple of millionaires. They were not beer drinkers so they enjoyed their Paninis made with turkey pastrami and fontina cheese with soda pop. They will be back.

As I was waiting to formulate a plan for my departure, another gentleman dressed for riding his windowless sports car came looking for a hot dog and directions to the police station. He stayed and helped me close the garage door. Now I could go forward with my plans to leave Woody's where I spent 6 perfectly delightful hours. I must find a unique OPEN sign.
