THAT WAS CLOSE ! ! !

Thursday wasn't a day for us to get out of the house to pay bills for a lot of reasons, not just cause it was cold or windy, but for the simple fact NOTHING went right from the get go. Lets start with when we left the house, the car showed we had 3 low tires, so hubby keeps driving & I told him, You know what you kept telling me about low tires? don't keep driving, always check the tires B-4 you leave, yes dear he says so he goes down the road to a place to check them. He gets the portable air pump to air them up, it doesn't work so he gets to a gas station & the air pump doesn't work then we have to back track & go to town which was the opposite direction we were going to start with to get air. He gets to a place, gets the air & goes to pull away & wouldn't you know it, he drives over a huge curb, yeah The same curb I just told him to not hit, it was high enough that I thought 4-sure we were going to get stuck, W T ? So he gets off the curb & says they need a big rock there & I said, yeah so you could have hit it instead, then I said they should have a post there tall enough to see. We get through ALL that & the next thing he says damn I left the cell phone at the house I'm like I'm done, I'm ready to just go back home & crawl back in bed for the day. That's just the START OF our bill day what's next ? well by the time we get to our fav eating place I've lost my hunger to eat, but I manage to eat a little something. We get the bills paid & stop by wally world for some can dog food & I got 24 can's with what $ I had BUT I was a dollar & some change off 46 $ & some change well I thought I had just enough but I didn't so I just said to heck with going to get the extra I needed & put the full amount on the visa card, & that was that. It was late, I was beat tired, stressed to the max, & not to mention cold as ? & still had to feed the dogs when we get back home, so we're on our way home. Everything was quiet no radio, no talking, going home we were at a 4 way stop & was going through & out of the blue, we came close to getting hit by a state trooper that was coming from my side of the car, Right straight at us at a fast speed fixing to T-BONE us, holy cow ! ! ! he had turned on his siren just as he was going through the cross road at the same time we were going across. Talk About being close, that was TOO CLOSE . . . We're o.k we're home in 1 piece & I have to say I hope we NEVER have to have another day like that ever again, that was the worst bill paying day we've ever had. I rather go back to the days when we use to buy the money orders for our bills & mail them just so we didn't have to be out all day in the cold weather & take a chance of getting hit by a cop. I leave you with this in mind, be careful in the cold & stay safe cause you never know what's going to happen on the streets, I wish you all a safe merry Xmas
