I WAS GIVING JISR A BAD TIME ABOUT NOT BLOGGING EARLIER TONIGHT.......
I really don't have room to talk!
However, Em, Britt, my future daughter in law and I all traveled over to IF Almost 2 weeks ago.
We pulled out of boise just about 5:30 PM And made it to Jerome in just barely over any hour.
It had taken all day to get out of Boise.
#1 Phillip had to talk in church. Church doesn't start until 11:00. Ok I can deal with getting out of town by about 12:30PM, no such luck.
#2 Britt had to teach primary and she didn't get out of church until 2:30. Ok I can deal with that also. leaving town between 3 and 3:30 still isn't bad timing. I just wanted to get out by 10:00 AM for a change, but 10 to 3 ok, I really can deal with that.
#3 I ran out to jism's to pick up my new computer, I should have been home by 2:30 easy. I got to JISM'S house and was visiting out in the yard when I looked down to see a huge nail head in my tire. I was so stupified that I asked, "Is that a nail in my tire?" I couldn't believe the luck very typical of the luck that we have had trying to travel over there the last several times that we have gone over there. Do you realize that there isn't a tire store open anywhere on a Sunday! Sears automotive and Walmart Automotive are the only games in town on a Sunday.
I couldn't even get the Sears person to talk to me. So I left to go home, Phillip called and told me to go over to Walmart that they had called and were told that it would be a 1 hour wait. Well that was better than nothing. By the time that I got there however the lady behind the desk told me that It would be a 2 hour wait. SHIT! We will never get out of town by that time. So I just went out to the car sat behind the wheel and cried. About that time a really great mechanic came to ask how he could help me. I explained that I had the nail in the tire and that my original plan was to leave town by 10:00AM and as you can see that didn't happen. I didn't tell him that there had been other extenuating circumsances. He got me right in and the tire done in about 20 minutes. I got home by 4:15 PM Brit and Phillip got there not to long after that, so we got the car loaded and on the road. I let Brit drive. I was really tired by this time and needed to just relax for a while.
We stopped at B & L's for about 1\2 hour or 45 minutes. I had to drop some computer stuff off to him and I needed to get some stuff from him. Then off to IF. We made it into town at 10:36pm. That really wasn't bad timing.
We sat up and talked with my mom until the wee small hours all in alll not a bad day.
