I got up early today and started to work when it was still dark out. I was ready to have a busy and productive Monday. Then I unexpectedly hit a puddle (really a lake) in the neighborhood. I was able to regain control of my car and not hit any trees or mailboxes, but as I got through the puddle my car died. DEAD. It just turned off. I felt a touch of panic. I remained calm for the most part. I called Jackson in Pennsylvania. He was encouraging, but of no help being so far away. I called my parents. On the second try they answered at 7 a.m. (sorry about that, guys). I ended up having to get a tow truck because my car was just done with me. It took about 2 hours from beginning of ordeal to end of ordeal. It was a cold morning waiting in my car for help. I was thankful to be in a safe place, though. It could have been worse. At least that is what I keep telling myself. I had to call into work since I'm now stranded with no wheels. Ugh. I'm hoping for positive news from the dealership that I had it towed to- fingers crossed, please.
I had to laugh when I got my email from Rev. Run this morning:
"Good morning. You don't drown because you fall in 2 ft of water. You drown because you refuse to pick yourself up! Move forward enthusiastically this week! God is Love. Rev Run"
What timing, Rev!! :)
