Caffeine and friend who was hit by car

RantWoman's friend who got hit by the car 6 short weeks ago was in attendance this morning at RantWoman's house of worship! Friend is still recovering from broken bones and doing several kinds of therapy. However, thanks to many wonders of modern medicine, this is much more solidly on this side of the mortal veil than many feared right after the accident.

RantWoman is glad her friend has gone home from the hospital. However, this friend lives 3 buses away from RantWoman, not nearly as convenient as the hospital. RantWoman thinks she will settle down and mainly see her friend on Sundays, but RantWoman is SO excited to see her.

RantWoman is celebrating this with a whole mishmash of other triumphs.

RantWoman arrived at her house of worship in plenty of time, and even arrived caffeinated. See previous rants about the challenges posed by this seemingly simple requirement.

RantWoman ran into Little Sister and the world's most irrepressible nephew on her bus ride. Little Sister and Nephew ride the 48 to a different house of worship from RantWoman (we do have SOME family boundaries.) RantWoman is going to dedicate the family's daily Bible sharing Teach your children well to the following problem. World's most irrepressible nephew flashed his auntie with what in Auntie's extremely limited expertise and prodigious visual fog still look like baby gang signs. Auntie is now suddenly in market for creative ways to deal and the kid is only EIGHT!

RantWoman was also cheered to see that this morning's bus ride included a better cross section than last time of the usual colorful characters bound for Sunday worship experiences. It just takes a certain "je ne sais quois" (apologies to French punctuation purists) to pull off the purple sequined hat with fur coat look!
