It's Saturday afternoon, you've been busy doing things, not paying attention to telephones or computers as you don' t need the distractions, wanting to get some things accomplished, when you hear your phone ring. Once glance at the screen and its a number you don't recognize. Do you answer it? Or ignore it? It's very easy to assume its some kind of telemarketer, as not many unknown numbers call you.
But some little voice says "answer it" ....
"Hello?" I say, distracted with carrying things into the house
"Hi... I'm looking for _____ ..." I hear a male voice say
*blink*blink* I know this voice....
"This is_____...." and I'm nodding vigorously, knowing that its him!
When realization hits, and I know who it is....
talk about going into shock!
the rest of the conversation is stammered and crazy,
not at all like its gone in my head a thousand times or more.
It's a short conversation; he was worried, I was in shock.
"I'll call you back in a few minutes." he tells me
"Oh, Ok then" I answered back, still stymied over the call in the first place.
*smiles* (I think we both needed a moment to regroup!)
Hopped in the shower, getting cleaned up after working in the yard all morning, and yes, the phone rang a bit after that, and the conversation went much better after we got over our momentary lapse.
*all smiles the rest of the day*
Isn't is amazing how one phone call can change your day?
