Came home from work to find the grass mowed. I'd been paying a friend to do it, but stopped when BD hit. Keeping in mind one of his complaints was that he felt I critiqued everything he did to help out (so he stopped), I sent him a thank you vi text:
Me: Did you mow in this nasty heat? High five, looks great. Thanks, it's much appreciated!"
Turns out he had a buddy of his that owes him money do it. His reply included he explination in a funny way and a "LOL", along with "next mowing is all me" so I replied, "Hahaha! Tell him thanks, then, and thanks to you, in advance, too!"
Left to at that. 180 of heaping appreciation.
