I just can't believe this

Well, it has been much much too long since I posted. I had all these good intentions about positng the rest of my trip to China, but it seems a litte crazy to wait until I get that information all together. Life is passing me by with all kinds of great things to talk about. I've missed a few really good opportunities and I think I better get back in the saddle. For instance....this morning has been lovely.....This will be your daily laugh.

Last night my car sprung a coolant leak (yes, in this horrible weather). I got it home before it went into the red, but it has to go to the shop today. That not funny, you say? Well, there's more. My dear husband said I could drive his truck to work today. OK, all is well. Still not funny? Oh, OK. My daughter came over last night and parked behind her dad's truck. When she got ready to leave she could not find her keys. No problem, how far could a set of keys go in an hour? It is now 16 hours later and we have not found the keys. Not enough? Thinking we could jockey the truck out of the driveway (sadly, I have had to do this maneuver before) this morning we went out in the lovely summer weather and began to back it up and pull it forward until it came in contact with my sons' boat which sits in the sideyard. Guess what? can't get it around the boat OR the car! Now the shower I took the morning seems like it never happened because I am covered in sweat and my hair is dripping. My husband is cursing (something he rarely does), and our driveway looks like a tornado picked up the truck and set it askew AND it's only 8:00 a.m.!! Frustrated does not begin to describe how I am feeling at the moment...................A locksmith is now on his way to see if we can get a key to Lindsey's car. I have about 6 meetings on my clendar to cancel today, and it continues to be 100 degrees every day. I am taking a deep breath and trying to see the humor in all of this. Blogging......goo therapy!
