Blessed is the one who picked up furniture during a run and had a cupcake after that.
I was due for my 12-15km run today (which is running late for my marathon training but what the heck) and it was a fruitful run indeed!
beautiful scenery along the way
Into my 11km, I ran into the nearby neighbourhood and guess what I saw? A trash bin and a coffee table which I knew the hubs would need. We have been scouting for a table from the thriftstore but could not find anything suitable and there before my eyes was the table. So I ran back to our apartment and got him to go back to the exact location again, half crossing my fingers that no one would be there before us.
And so, we had our bin and table and they saved us a bit. Sorry that I sound very auntie-ish but we are very much conscious of the fact that we would not be staying here forever and thus we shouldn't buy unnecessarily. A colleague who had been here before us had told us that she had done so and such incidents had saved her heaps.
So you see, running is good for health and for your pockets, if you do not mind second-hand stuff!
We are blessed by such provision. Indeed the Lord is good!
