The Penny Finding just won’t end! Today Doc stopped for a coffee at the local convenience
store. I went in with him to look
for coins (yes, this addiction is difficult to break). There were no coins to be found inside
and I was disappointed.
As I walked out of the store, I remembered the “Word of the
Day” from my yoga class. The word
was “ASK”. Someone quoted the
verse “You do not have, because you do not ask”. Soooo… once again I challenged the Penny Angels. “OK Angels, how about a coin before I
get back in my truck?” I looked in
a muddy planter bed. There were
some pennies and nickels!! (Nickels are
the rarest finds of the four basic coins). I bent over to retrieve the coins …. I kept gobbling them
up! Doc called to see where I was,
so I quickly returned to him. I
thought perhaps I had as many as 25 coins (my favorite number). I unfolded my hand and we counted
together … one, two, three… there were thirty-seven coins! Including Two Hits for the Cycle! (Defined
as one penny, one nickel, one dime, and one quarter).
LESSON: ASK!!!
Note: I also challenged the Angels about
“writing time”. Doc and I expected
(and allowed time for) stop-and-go morning traffic on the freeway. I told the Angels if they wanted me to
write a Penny Tale today, they would need to open up some time for me. I was able to drive the maximum speed
limit on the freeway! Unheard of
in morning traffic. Thus I had that extra time to write the Penny Tale for
today!

It was great to read your Tales on the Penny Tales blog.
Thank you for going on. I am also addicted, but that's the other kind of addiction - reading :-)
When I read your stories I have the feeling of presence with you there, in the US. :-)
So continue this, please...!
