Ace Hardware Member Update

I wanted to circle back because I kept thinking about what you asked yesterday.
From my side, it honestly sounds simpler if we keep the plan loose and decide the details when we get there.
I usually overthink things at first, then realize the easiest option was fine all along.
That said, I do think it helps when everybody knows roughly what time to expect each other.
I can be flexible in the afternoon, and I do not mind waiting a bit if traffic is odd or something shifts unexpectedly.
I also remembered the shop you mentioned, and I agree it seems like a better spot to stop than the other place around the corner.
If it works for you, send a quick note in the morning and I will confirm from there.
I have everything else sorted, so there is really nothing urgent on my end.
The weather also looks steady enough now, which makes the whole thing easier.

Securely Review & Claim

Thank you for being part of Ace Hardware. This message concerns a loyalty recognition update for an eligible recipient.

 

I saw your note and meant to answer earlier, but I got pulled into a longer afternoon than I expected.
For what it is worth, I think your first idea actually sounds better now that I have had time to think about it.
Sometimes the option that feels less polished on paper turns out to be the one everyone enjoys more.
I am fine either way, though, so do not worry about trying to make it perfect for me.
If we need to shift the timing a little, that is no issue at all because my schedule is pretty open after lunch.
I also finished that small task I mentioned, so I will not be distracted if we decide to meet up or handle it tomorrow instead.
Just send me a short update when you know more.
I do better with a simple plan than a dozen tentative ones, and I trust your judgment on the rest.
Hope the evening feels quieter than the day did.
