Gosh, I was thinking back over the things I’ve driven hither and yon to get. A wok, crockpot, microwave, vacuum cleaner and stereo. All but the stereo were supposed to be for me. The rest went to Rhett because he had no pot to cook in, his crockpot and microwave and vacuum bit the dust. Seems that fairly soon after I get something, Rhett needs it. A few weeks ago Judy gave me a glass lid just in time for me to give it to Rhett when he broke the identical lid on his crockpot.
It’s kind of getting creepy! But good! So often our needs are met through getting freebies, going through the dumpster and networking with friends.
When Judy and I go to the food shelf, I give her my coffee and we both give our pop tarts, instant oatmeal and boxes of cereal to Rhett, because he likes them and can fix them himself.
Luckily there have been many more people helping Rhett now days. It’s not all on my shoulders. He gets some free cooking and cleaning, his kids call more often to offer to help and people from church drop by from time to time. I would have never known how to hook up all those stereo components we dragged back. No less than four guys helped Rhett put it together. Tonight a brother programmed in the stations by push button.
I brought over the new microwave today and another guy carried it in and put it in place. Rhett forgot to ask for help with how to use that, but now he has something to look forward to 
When I met Rhett, he had two vacuums. One is burned up and needs tossing. The other is a very light stick type. This time I really scored! Just brought him an h2o vac. It uses water instead of bags.
I’m almost afraid to see what will come my way next, as Rhett will then need it ;-p
Time to put some vibes out in the universe for cement blocks and 2×8’s. I bet there are piles of them out there, just waiting for me to stumble upon them I need some for making raised beds in my new garden plot. Alright everybody….1….2….3…. THINK CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS!
