Hubby, Will You Show Me How To Drive In Snow?

12:27 am on a snowy January night, I was lying in my bed reading. Next to me was my faithful dog, Higgins, chewing on his bone, taking a break every few seconds to remind me that all my attention should be on him and not the book that I am so engrossed in.

The kids are tucked snugly and safely in their beds, Hubby should be almost home any minute. The phone rings, and it's Hubby. He's quiet, my heart skips a beat and then he speaks. Baby, I am okay, but I just wreaked the truck. Of course, not being overly dramatic, I slightly panic. Here's the conversation:

Hubby: "I'm okay."
Me: "Are you sure?" (he tends to bend the truth when I am involved)
Hubby: "Really, I am fine."
Me: "How bad is it?"
Hubby: "I'm not sure, I cannot open the door."
Me: (pure panic mode) "Oh NNOOOOOO, I am on my way where are you?"
Hubby: "First call the sheriff, and have him come and send a tow truck."
Me: "Okay, I am on my way."

Let me just say in my defense, at times I do tend to panic. I did pretty good getting to him and of course when he was fine, all the glory of this situation came through and I begin to harass him! Yep, read the post before this one and you will totally understand!

Granted it is very cold outside, my toes are numb, my fingers are froze and my nose is beyond red. My jeans were wet in the dryer, so I threw on long johns and sweats, but I think that was little help. So to keep my mind off being cold, I begin!!

• Great job honey, way to take that curb!
• Wow, is that ice and snow on the ground?
• I love the way the truck is buried up to the axles, niiiccceeeeee!
• Did you sing, Jesus Take The Wheel?
• Was the truck in 4 Low?
• Wow, how blog worthy is this!!

Trust me the list grows. A deputy shows up and I am in full mode taking pictures and laughing because this is so going on my blog. I forgot my camera, but never fear, I am snapping away with my phone. The first sheriff cars comes, lights flashing, sirens blaring. Of course I bust out laughing, because in a small town, we will be front page news!!

The second sheriff comes, light ever so bright, of course I have to take a picture of it, and wow, two cop cars, we may even get our pictures in the paper!! Ahahahahahahahaha! I am just loving this one!!

The first cop calls for the tow truck and he explains where we are at, and then proceeds to tell him to bring a chain saw, because this one's wedge on two trees and will need some work to get it out, WHHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! For a man, a manly man, a expert driver of a man, this is bad!! Hahahahahahahahahaha!! (Sorry BFF!)

The deed is done, the cop thinks I am crazy for laughing and taking pictures, he just does not understand blogging, and how monumental this is! Of course I ask to take his picture and Jeremy is rolling his eyes telling him, I am more happy for the blog worthiness of this than actually being upset about the truck, which at the time is true, until I had to pay $100 to the tow truck driver.....

Anywoo, first cop car leaves, tow truck leaves, and I turned the Jeep around to leave and the first cop, makes me stop, and asks me if, and I quote, "Should I wait to make sure this will not turn into another call?" I say, and I quote, "Nah, It's a woman driving this time, there will be no need!" AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! I do not think he was very impressed! He left! He he!

All is well, hubby is a little stoved up this morning, but he will be fine. God is good. Life will stink when the insurance people get involved and all the stuff that comes with that, but as long I get to blog about Hubby's great driving skills, life is wonderful!!

Here are few pictures from last night, of course they are not good, but, they are so being posted for prosperity sake!
