Happy weekend to all! So this weekend is a particularly important one for myself and my wife, we are officially making the move into our new house. It has been a long time coming and many hours spent scrubbing, painting and swearing but it is all coming together. I could not and won’t be able to get this task complete this weekend were it not for all the help that has been so graciously provided! I hope someday to be able to pay it back and help everyone else on an as needed basis, assuming I am not out of town on business. HA!
I did however start to ponder the appropriate form of “Thank you,” is it as simple as the words? It would be in all sincerity, or do I owe something more. First off, moving is never fun, there are moves that are less crappy then others, but overall they all stink! Secondly I have a lot of JUNK! I haven't reached hoarder status but I have a tough throwing away perfectly good stuff. It isn't that it means so much to me but it is worth more then trash. I know, I know stage 1) Denial
Anyway back to the point. What would you appreciate most as a “Thank you” for helping out a friend or family member?
I am open to suggestions, leave me some ideas in the comments- Have a great weekend folks
Cheers- Brandon
SWAG.
ReplyDeleteHaha jk, mostly. I would say the best thank you is access to a rich shared experience. Some of my fondest memories of graditude involve sharing time, food, ideas, and laughs with family and friends.
Agreed! A simple thanks is more than enough. Thats what friends are for!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of the move was carrying your memories and making new ones. I'm with Allison a thanks works for me.
ReplyDeleteHA, I do believe swag is the answer! But really thank you to everyone who chimed in, I appreciate your input.
