When I was driving home from Boston I organised to call in and visit Tylene and Alain on my way back up to Maine. They live in Portsmouth, New Hampshire so it's roughly half way inbetween Boston and home. I planned on stopping in and saying hi, taking a short break from driving and just catching up on how everyone was going. Grammy had been in a car accident a few days earlier so it was also my first chance to see her since the crash and see how she was doing.
I arrived just in time to see Mum visiting, but unfortunately she had to head off to work so it was a short catch up. I stayed for a while and caught up with Ty and Frenchie and to my delight Ty had made me some dinner. Totally unexpected but 100% appreciated. It's gestures like these that touch me.
I caught up with Grammy, who had suffered a couple of cracked ribs from her accident. She was a little shaken but mostly ok - just in a little bit of pain. Thankfully no one was injured in the accident, although it sounds like the car is a little worse for wear.
Before long I jumped back in my car and headed north - with some food in my tummy and happiness in my heart. I know it sounds cheesy, but that's how I felt. I am touched by the acts of kindness that Ty and Alain have shown me since I arrived.
