Blessings...
I've been wondering to post this but decided it was most worth posting. Every morning before we start work we always start the day off with a quick prayer. Things like "Thank you for the day, weather, Help us enjoy the day and working together, thanks for providing us work" and always "Keep us safe with the equipment" the other day John didn't want to take a lunch so he decided to start a lawn while Steve and myself took a half hour. For the last week I've rented a commercial mower as one of my main mowers blew a gasket and I've been waiting for parts. So John was using the rental mower while we took our lunch. Not too familiar with it as it's a grade lower than the ones I own. So he put his hand into the shoot after removing the bag and his hand was hit by the still spinning blade. Also to note I had just put a brand new sharpened blade on that mower... super sharp. All I heard was a scream. Amazingly he pulled his glove off and there wasn't a mark on his fingers. He said "I should have lost two of my fingers" He was expecting to see blood gushing out of his glove when it took it off. We both said it was a pure blessing that he wasn't injured and how thankful we were that he wasn't seriously injured. At the end of the day he had a slightly purple finger from a bruise where the blade hit is hand. God is so good and definitely answered that prayer of safety. I am just so thankful. A true miracle. I thought I'd share this story with my Flickr friends today.
Again I was hoping on being back on Flickr tonight but I spent all day doing my April invoicing and paperwork. Took me from the time I got up till after 10 pm tonight. I'll definitely be back on this week though. I always enjoy reading everyones comments so I want to thank you for taking time to fav and comment on my photos. Have a happy Monday everyone. :D
