Last Friday, walking to Grand Central Station, a $10 bill was lying on the sidewalk on Madison Avenue. I stopped a watched for a minute and no one noticed it. At least a dozen people walked by it. So I picked it up. Thank you Lord!
Last Monday, I was invited to have Brazilian food in Brooklyn. I was told it was cheap, about $6. After drinks, appetizers, dinner, tax and tip, everyone owed around $30. I was a little disappointed because I hadn't planned to spend that much. As I got my wallet out, Jack, a guy I just met that day, told me he was covering my meal. I told him that was nice but he didn't have to do that. He insisted. He had just got back from Las Vegas where he won a lot of money and he wanted to pay for my meal, along with his girlfriend and himself. So, I know he wasn't trying to hit on me. He put in $100 for the 3 of us! Wow...thank you Jack and God!
Today, I went to get my eyes examined because the DMV requires a eye test to renew my license. I had made an appointment at my eye doctor and since I don't have eye health insurance it would cost $50-250. I found out that the local eye wear shop charges $10 for the same exam. So I went there. After the eye exam, I took my wallet out to pay and the store owner said, "no charge." He said when I come back for a new prescription I can pay then. At this point, I'm speechless. Once again, thank you Lord!
I can't wait to see what blessings come next...

Today I was pondering what to have for dinner. I realized I should go grocery shopping but I don't want to spend money. So I was going to think about it while I wandered through the farmers market, not planning to buy anything there. One of the vendors was selling flavored pasta and I struck up a conversation with him. He gave me a free bag of pasta. I guess I know what I'm having for dinner!
