I had quite an evening… if I didn’t have such a good sense of humor, I’d probably be suicidal! LOL I finished up invoices and stuffed and stamped them here (at work) about a quarter til 5 and had to get it all to the Post Office by 5. I left the post office and went and paid 2 bills. I didn’t realize my gasoline display was on AVERAGE MILES PER GALLON and not DISTANCE TO EMPTY!!!! So I thought I had 26 miles left so I thought to myself, “I will get gas on my way back to the office before I go make the bank deposit.” (I didn’t have it written up or copied when I left and since I have until 6pm to deposit it, I thought I would just wait…) WRONG! I broke down (ran out of gas) on the side of Hwy 33 where they are doing construction so it’s very congested and there is NO side of the highway because they are widening it and there is about a 2′ drop on each side… So I turned my hazard lights on. Even so, EVERYONE WAS STILL HONKING AT ME!! I was like whyyyyy are you honking? I can’t go anywhere LOL!! There is a reason these FLASHY LIGHTS are on and I’m not MOVING after 2 cycles of GREEN LIGHTS and about 5 minutes of being stopped in one place. One word: DUH!!!
So finally 2 men got out and pushed me into a parking lot … bad thing was, I was only 1 block from a gas station! I was so mad haha but I couldn’t do anything but laugh because that’s just so typical of things in my world LOL Barry was in Wal-Mart getting groceries so he had no towers on his phone and couldn’t answer. But, one of our co-workers happened to be still at the shop so he brought me some gas and he pointed out very nicely that I should probably fill my tank up PRIOR to my errands… I was like I HAD NOT THOUGHT OF THAT – GREAT SUGGESTION (rolling eyes) LOL So I filled my tank up (*by the way, I’m loving this $1.97 a gallon thing – I got 255 miles with like 25 bucks and my tank is almost full!*) But, in all of that, I forgot that I intended to do the company bank deposit when I got back from the Post Office… I ended up getting back here about 5:50pm and as soon as I walked in my office, I realized the deposit hadn’t been made – bank closes at 6!!!
I grabbed the checks and a deposit slip, ran a copy of them real quick and bolted out the door, locked it, and made it to the bank AS THE LADY WAS PULLING THE BLINDS DOWN in the drive thru!! I MADE IT! :) Tell me I’m not superwoman LOL!!! Moms can do ANYTHING haha So through all that, I managed to get my bills paid, get the invoices out, fill my tank up, and do the bank deposit all in time LOL I also got myself something to eat on the way back :) I’m gooooood! Me and God were chatting on the side of the highway LOL!!! I was like Lord, I bet you are just realllllly enjoying this, aren’t you? Ya think this is just hilarious, huh? LOL He likes to watch me work my way out of things I think haha Such a kidder, He is. But hey, for all the mistakes I’ve made… I’m sure He’s due some amusement at my expense LOL Fair enough haha
I see more of His favor than anything so I can’t be upset when trials come… And He takes care of me through those too! LOL Soooo that was my evening. I’m back at the office now, finished eating… about to put my things up and be DONE for the day! lol What a life I live LOL!!!











LOL That sounds like my luck. Except, I haven’t ran out of gas yet. Thankfully.
