Clean up in isle 3



I have one of those sweet "Granny" type renters in my main complex. Rent always a day ahead of time. The smell of cookies & bread waft into the hallway from her end of the building.....

She called me personally on my work phone "I Have water running across my floor can you help? " Yes Ma'am! I'll be right over !" <My Guy Martin would normally handle this.... however, he is doing the work of three men right now and had to take his sweet mom into the Doctor and her English is not the best.



The trickle of water causing her consternation came from a defective waterline to her washing machine.... Down into the shop workbench... 3 of them right there waiting to go into service....Granny's Consternation solved! I charged her a sugar cookie!

That's great that you were able to fix her problem so quickly and inexpensively. I'm sure you will enjoy the sugar cookie. Such a sweet old lady.

I have several just like her. Easy to please and happy with the smallest favors.

We old folks appreciate having a roof over our heads and someone who takes care of things that need fixing. I'm sure she thought A sugar cookie was not enough. You could have probably gotten half a dozen!

Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

I should have set down asked for a glass of milk and finished off the plate..... Conscientious renters are also few and far between .... just try to make their stay as pleasant as possible
