Where do I start? OK....from the beginning......
I've had no calls or offers on my building in months or longer....ever since the supposed downfall of our economy.
Yesterday....out of the blue.....not only do I get a call but the guy wants to lease it right away....right now!
That was the highlight of the day.
Yesterday afternoon I'm headed across west Alabama to make a delivery. I'm on a busy highway in the middle of nowhere and I find a baby in the road! YES! a baby maybe 2 yrs. old at the most is standing all alone right on the white line! I slide to a halt...back up and snatch him from the road. There is a dirt road that ties into the highway at this location so I assume that's where he came from. He had on a diaper and a t-shirt and nothing else....soaking wet from all the rain and obviously cold. He was happy to have me holding him. I was lucky and a lady saw my truck in the middle of the road and me out with a baby and she stopped. I asked her to drive up the dirt road and see if she could find a house while I warmed the kid and moved my truck. She found a house I **** you not at least 150-200 yards up the dirt road. She brings some rough looking dude back to get the kid. He's squalling..she's squalling....me and the kid are in shock! I gave him the kid...I guess I was still too shook up to cuss him...I just remember telling him that it was his and the kids lucky day. I left. I did call the sheriff's dept for that county and report it. They had tons of rain down there yesterday and water was gushing thru the ditches...the highway is a major truck route. Lucky kid!
I'm on my way home last night and get a call that my brother has had a heart attack. He was in Gulf Shores at the time so they took him to Fairhope. He's doing good. They put a stent in the front last night but he needs another in the back that they'll do tomm. It's more risky so I'm headed to Fairhope shortly. I think some of you know he also has cancer. They contribute some of this to the effect chemo has on your arteries and veins.
Keep him in your thoughts please.
Thanks
