Amazement

So today I got a text telling me I was going to see Heart, Cheap Trick and Joan Jett at the amphitheater.  I had commented a couple of months back about the concert.  It is one that would be worth seeing.  And then I didn't give it much more thought.
It came up on facebook again a few weeks ago and I looked at tickets.  It was well on it's way to be sold out.  At that point I just figured it was out of my comfort zone for seeing a concert by myself.
So today I get the text and I almost cried. I didn't know what to say beyond thank you.  See I am usually the one who goes out of their way to make some one's day.  I will make the plans and see that it all (hopefully) works out with all of life's curve balls.
While I have been working on expanding my world, I would not say it is successfully.  We are doing a lot, the littles and I.  But we are not letting many new people in to our world.  We are just doing things.
So when I do let someone in it is surprising if that someone goes out of their way for me.  I never expect it. I never ask for it.  I will roll with it though.  And so I am in amazement and grateful and it is going to be one heck of a good concert.
I've seen Heart before and my brother saw one of the sisters in a small venue in Seattle.  He said it was great and the concert I saw was amazing.  I'm excited.
Now to find a babysitter.  Again.  The bain of my existence. Second only to the ice cream truck.
