Drama

Sheesh! I did not realize how long it has been since I last blogged. I have been extremely busy this past month and blogging has crossed my mind a time or two, but when I had a free moment, I fell asleep of pure exhaustion.

Yesterday was a day of drama...

I had not heard from my husband in over 2 days. This is highly unusual because we normally talk several hours a day. At first, I figured he was just busy and would call me when he had the chance, but when I called him, I got dropped into his voice mail right away. I left him a message late at night letting him know that I was going to bed, call me in the morning.

The next morning, still no call. I waited and waited. When I called again, voice mail. So I waited more. Still no call. By now, my mind was worried and I was thinking of all these horrible things that might have happened to him.

By the suggestion of my Facebook friends, I called his dispatcher and had them send a message to his truck via satellite. But what good would the message be if he could not call me??

So I waited and waited and my stomach started churning and I felt sick. Then suddenly my phone rings. It's my husband.

"There you are!" I said. Not hello. Apparently he had been in Amish country and he had no cell phone service. Normally in this situation he would call from a pay phone, but there was no pay phone around either.

Well, now I'm highly relieved that he was okay and got ready for the day and ran into town. Checked the mail at the post office and saw my income tax check that I had been waiting for since January! WOOT! So it was off to the bank for me and then shopping for food.

The rest of the day went well.

I get home and I can't open my car door. LOL!!!
