Sweet Stress

This has been quite a day. It started off with a trip to my 19-year-old son’s place at 7:00 a.m. A few days ago his car got a flat tire and another tire had a slow leak. He managed to park it in front of his place and its been sitting there to the dismay of his “landlady” who is very strict about how the place looks. Then he became sick with the flu. After a couple days of being sick, he became even more sick. So he called me. He could barely talk.

So I went up to get him, but when I got there he told me that the “landlady” had informed him that if he didn’t move his car today, she would have it impounded. I don’t want to go into a lot of detail, but the car had to be towed, and another thing that happened was…Cody locked his car keys in his room, along with his house keys. In all the excitement I forgot to call into work to tell them why I didn’t show up to teach 5th grade spelling.

So now Cody is here, and spending the night. His car, with 2 flat tires is here too. He’s feeling a little better already and it’s rather nice to have the whole family together under our roof, even if it is under these circumstances.

Have a nice night.
