What are we doing today?
Check the whiteboard.
What's for dinner?
Check the whiteboard.
Every day for 60 (now 61) days, I have written something on the whiteboard.
As the weekend approached, my kids were starting to ask about Mother's Day. I told them I would love for them to get along, clean the house, and be in charge of "church." Then I threw in, "Oh yeah, and make me breakfast!" because I knew they would love that.
On Saturday, I reiterated my desires on the whiteboard and added one more thing just for fun:
A little while later, I got this text:
I then received a meeting ID and password. I couldn't let down Hugh Jackman down, so I logged into Zoom on Sunday, and we had a lovely chat.
He looked a little different than usual - probably because of quarantine. His whiskers appeared to be drawn on, he had on sunglasses, his accent was a bit off, and his voice sounded a little higher than normal.
He showed me his collection of original movie posters.
"Here is a poster of me holding my arm in the air for no reason," he explained.
Then he told me he had a surprise for me! He had mailed me a package, and it was due to arrive any minute!
Shortly after the call, the package showed up on the porch.
I opened it and found a signed photograph and the two movie posters. Talk about speedy delivery!
What an amazing experience! I only wish Nicky could have been around to see it.
