Thankful

For Christmas, The Husband bought me a Steph Curry tee shirt and he attached a post-it note to the tag telling me I also got tickets to one, or more, games of my choosing. Fast forward a couple of months and we have a friend who is a Warriors season ticket holder and he had a game he couldn't go to and knew we wanted to buy a game. He offered to sell them to us and we said yes.

Now, this is a friend since high school who we don't get to see very often any more. Same reasons as everybody else; lives are busy, kids, sports, work, etc. In order to pick up and pay for the tickets we arranged to go to their house for lunch and to catch up. He smoked meat and made potato salad and we brought pasta salad. It was a really nice visit.

At the end of the lunch, I asked them if a check was okay or if they would rather have cash... and they would't let us pay for it. They gave us a pair of tickets for free. It was so kind and really, overly generous, but we appreciate it so much! The season tickets also come with parking so we got that too. He also gave us a tee shirt that was shot out of the tee shirt cannons at the game.

We have debt, we are trying to sell our house, we have kids; it was such a blessing that they gave us the tickets for free! I was feeling very guilty about buying the seats because we couldn't exactly afford them, but I'm not going to lie or sugarcoat it, I really wanted to go. Now, I can attend the game without feeling guilty about spending the money or thinking about what I should have spent the money on.

Thank you, sweet friends, for making this brunette's day!
