1. Calling a credit card company to change our mailing address, I had quite an interesting exchange with the Customer Service man:
CS: “What can I do right now to make your day wonderful?”
Me: “Um…. I’m calling to change our address, please.”
CS: “Your wish is my command. [He then asked for my info, and completed the transaction.]
Me: “Great, thank you.”
CS: “Before you go, may I ask you a question?”
Me: (Uh oh…) “Um… sure…”
CS: “Is this new address a new home you purchased?”
Me: “Yes, it is.”
CS: “Well in that case, may God bless you with only peace, love, and prosperity in your new home.”
Me: “Um… okay… thank you….”
Definitely a call I won’t forget any time soon!
2. Performing my first waffle iron life hack: hash browns! They worked out quite well.
3. Seeing a brief video that brought a big smile to my face:

It was rather interesting. In the moment, I wasn’t quite sure what to make of it; but afterwards, it did make me smile. 🙂

I can’t believe that this day was only three months ago – it feels like that was a lifetime ago. Thank you for your comment! 🙂

Just today I read: The world reflects your attitude toward it.
I believe much what happened had to do with you too. Nice.

enjoyed this post. what a cool customer service conversation, and i found that video with all the alternate waffle iron meals very interesting. your third item isn’t available for viewing in Canada. i guess free trade has its limitations 🙂
anyhow, thanks for sharing. i see that you have stopped blogging for a while, and hope that you are enjoying your break.
do take care and thanks for sharing.

Glad you enjoyed the story and hacks! Sorry to hear the video doesn’t play in Canada; it still works on my side… It’s a cool story about a “curmudgeonly” teacher who volunteered every week at the local hospital rocking babies – blew the kids away when they found out. 🙂
Yes, I have been on a break from the blog. Last year I found out I was pregnant; and between the morning sickness, journaling about the pregnancy, moving through delivery, and now raising a small human, something in my life had to give – and this blog was one of the “somethings”.
That said, I would like to get back to it. I’m realizing that I’m mentally slipping back into old mind patterns once again…. *sigh*
Thanks for nudging me to consider resuming blogging. 🙂
