After reading here lately about unhappiness and coping with
life's problems I thought I should add a cheering note about
unsolicited kindness.
I recently drove to the big city (Wheeling, WV) to visit my
alternator/starter guy. His test showed the alternator OK, which
pretty much pointed to the voltage regulator as the problem with my
F700 truck. He said he couldn't test the regulator but suggested
that for $12.30 a new one (made in China so it has to be good!) would
put me back in business. As usual he was right. Now my firewood
customers will be getting their stuff while the ground is still hard
and I won't be tearing up their yards.
But to me the most interesting thing about the day's events was
how helpful people were. I had a hip fracture operation about seven
weeks ago and was walking with a noticeable limp. Little old ladies
suddenly appeared to hold open doors for me. People carried things
to my pickup when I visited a store. I was quite impressed. Makes
me vow to pay more attention to other people needing help.

You have me there, but loosely, as I would be held.
