Free table

For several weeks now I've been thinking about getting a new table for the office. As the budget is tight, it has remained as 'thinking about'. I personally didn't know how I was going to do it, though students would continue to remind me that the soft cover table I had just wasn't good enough for writing.

With this thought in mind, again, I went downstairs to wash my cup. No one uses the sink downstairs so I was quite surprised to see a lady washing dishes there. So I stood and waited.

She hadn't noticed me there and was very surprised and apologetic that I'd been waiting to use the sink. I said it was okay as I had plenty of time. I also said that my next student wasn't due for awhile, and I thought she was doing a good job and I didn't want to disturb her.

She told me that she was cleaning up after a closing down party. She was closing her office and getting rid of all their furniture. Then she said "Do you need any tables? I've got a few that I want to get rid of. I don't want any money for them."

I was, of course, very surprised and also pleased. So I promised to drop by in a few minutes and check them out.

I could only fit one in my office. It's a trestle table and it is the perfect size, colour and height for what I need. I said yes and promised to drop by and pick it up on the day they close.

The Secret continues to work!

Update 24th April.
Picked up the table today. A very nice girl helped me carry it up and informed me that they were closing the office and changing the business to be able to work from home.

I am very grateful to them for giving me this table. It is perfect for my students.

Have you heard of the movie and book The Secret? It is basically about the law of attraction. Whatever you strongly think about, you'll attract. This is my blog about things that happen to me daily that I believe are due to following the steps in the movie/book The Secret. If you've read enough of the criticism and also read enough of the marketing and hype, take this diary into account when making your final conclusion!
