So, this is how my children had to dress this morning to walk to school. All of us up here know this already, waking to freezing temperatures this morning and after the snow (yes, I said snow) we had yesterday. BBRR. But my family and friends in the south wouldn't even have to think this way, for the most part, at all. Yep, October 22nd, and it was below zero this morning. And if that's not bad enough, I had the boys all bundled up, ready to go to daycare and myself to work....I went out to start the truck and yep, you guessed it....NOTHING! No sound at all, just would not turn over. Kaput!
Made a call to Johnathon, hoping he would somehow magically fix things over the phone. No, instead, I was just instructed to call CAA and have them give a boost. Fine. I did that....AFTER I had to call my boss and let know what is going on and that I am trying my best to get to work. This after being sick last week for a few days. You know he is impressed....but hey, at least I get to provide good gossip for my co-workers. I do my best ;0).
So, CAA shows up....I'm hoping to be good to go....but no. Lots of power CAA man tells me but won't turn over, it's probaly your starter. I'm thinking at this point that I'm not making it to daycare or work at all now....even better gossip! Another call to the boss....but hey, such is life. Oh, and yes, CAA man towed my truck to the mechanic.....ugh! This after a $750 bill a couple of weeks ago for our vehicles!
We had a nice, long, ccccccold walk to school this morning....back home with Shane who is now napping. I am very eager to see if he goes for the regular 4 hr nap that he has at daycare....I will bet that it will be a 2 hr nap. I betcha. And that being said, I better get cracking around here....LOTS to do and better take advantage of this extra time.
Oh, and I want to add a little note to let know that Cheryl's sister, Jody, is being induced this morning and expecting a baby girl today!!! VERY exciting!!!
