This husband of mine…
Has been dropping hints the last few years…suggesting things he wants to do…things in San Antonio…things on the old man bucket list… The zoo, Sea World, a day at the rodeo…but one of us downplayed it…ignored it…put off going because one of us was afraid of the drive… Not sure where to go, where to park, how to navigate traffic…don’t know the area, what to expect, afraid of the unknown… But this year…downtown for five days…could take a bus…or the trolley…an Uber, even…because this year this old gal planned to make his wishes happen…but that was not to be… Or should we say, it was not to be in the way driver me expected…because driver me…scaredy cat that she is…found that driving downtown San Antonio in the winter…is no different than driving in that small hometown in Iowa… Easy to navigate…little to no traffic…could get where we wanted to go with no problemo… and so we did… Got where we were going…zipped here…zipped there…zip-a-dee-doo- dahed around the square…and one of us…not gonna lie…was just a little bit proud of herself… And so it is…in life…sometimes that thing we fear…that monster under the bed…isn’t as scary as what’s going on in our head… Have confidence…give it a shot…and know in your heart… You got this… And this husband of mine…agrees…
