I’m thankful for this week I’ve always referred to as “Hell Week”. 🤣
Our calendars are so tight it feels like I’m wearing a corset, and by this time next week I’ll be running on fumes. But all the people JC and I drive this week are traveling to be with their loved ones, and for just a few minutes or hours we get to be a part of their stories. It’s a precious time for each of them.
789 is the number of miles JC and I drove yesterday. Between the two of us we were in driver’s seats a total of 24 hours. 😵💫
👉🏼 At 11am yesterday, we helped a Navy Lieutenant Commander from San Diego, his wife and their 2 little ones get to Grandpa’s house on Marco Island for Christmas. 🌴
👉🏼 At 12pm, JC drove a family from Bonita to Disney in Orlando. They woke up and gave their young children the tickets that morning for Christmas! (They also packed themselves Jell-O shots for the 3-hr drive…🤣)
👉🏼 At 3pm I took 3 young adult siblings to Miami Airport to get on flights to Singapore… they’re making memories of a lifetime. ✈️
👉🏼 And at 7:30pm, a mom arrived with her 3 adult children and she needed to get them back safely from Fort Lauderdale, before swinging up to Fort Myers for a rental car. 🚙
These aren’t even all of the contracts we had yesterday!
My point is… Driven SWFL isn’t just a chauffeur service. We are a family supporting other families that just want to focus on the limited time they have together. 💯
We’re proud and grateful for what we do… but JC Val and I could definitely use your prayers this week!
Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎄
