Thawed

Dear God,
I would like to thank you for bringing me this


and this

By yesterday afternoon I was wearing a hat, scarf, polo neck and double cardigans to keep warm. I couldn't leave the house because I was waiting for a delivery. It never turned up, by the way. Thanks DHL! At 5pm there was light at the end of the tunnel... the rescue came in the form of a man who carried nine portable heaters up to us on the top floor. Not all nine at the same time, mind you. I made him a cup of tea to show him my gratitude. The evening was nice and warm. I decided a bottle of wine and a re-run of Sex And The City - The Movie was a good plan for the night. Shame that I later set both my alarm clocks for 8.45am instead of 7.45am. Ooops! But very lucky that I woke up at 8.15am thinking that surely it must be time to get up. And, oh yes, it was!!! I made it in to work with 10 minutes to spare before my first client arrived. Thanks God, for waking me up too!
