Saw this sign up last week. These people aren’t messing around looking for their pet. Tabs with phone number to rip off and all.
Today is a day that I’d like to take a minute and say thanks to the people in my life who have stuck by, loved and always supported me. There have been certain times in my life (sometimes these are torturously lengthy times) where I have probably been…well…lets say a bit difficult. I sometimes have to stop, shake my head at myself and say; Boy am I pain and the ass. I’m lucky I have one friend let alone many. Thank god (insert friends and family members here) has never given up on me. Don’t get me wrong, I think I am actually pretty stupendous. I also realize I am so far from perfect a thousand compasses wouldn’t be able to lead me home. That and there is quite possibly a long list of people who love me dearly, but would often feel they’d like to choke me:)
I thought I loved Bev’s Homemade before last weekend as much as I possibly could.
My friend Matt was on TV Monday night for the second time this month. A show called Hoarders on A&E. His company Clutter Cleaner does a lot of cleaning up and organizational stuff I could babble on about, but to black and white it, he and his crew do serious dirty work that helps people live better and healthier lives. It’s amazing. They do the sh*t (literally lots of times)- that no one else would ever want to do. Lets talk about gettin’ down and dirty….sheesh. Matt has busted his butt more than anyone else I have ever known. He’s grown his company, blood, sweat and tears like a true entrepreneur. He has an audacity and drive that I admire immensely. I can’t say I have never been this proud of a friend or family member for their great accomplishments before, because I have, but for whatever reason, seeing Matt on TV this month thrilled me like I can’t explain. Perhaps it’s the exact understanding of trucking on with what you want out of life and doing things you believe in that he practices and we share. Maybe it’s because of all the support and advice he has given or the fact that he has the heart of the kind of person everyone should be lucky enough to know. Probably all three. I wanted to give a far more than well-deserved shout out here.
