Aight so this post has no title...just a warning...I will be ranting, cursing, swearing and perhaps even wondering why God would let this happen. So unless any of the above offends you keep reading.
So I woke up late today to take S to school, to be exact an hour late so I raced up got ready got the kids ready, ran out to start the van in order to have it warm when we got in. When I got outside I noticed about 10feet of snow (not very good at measurements but that is how it feels out there) and I proceeded to clean off the van...the drive side mostly as that was the direction the wind was coming from. As I came around the van (around the back) I noticed that there was a large break in my back window. I was as you can imagine upset.
So I turned off the van gave up trying to make anything usefull of this day and called the school to let them know that my windshield was busted and I wouldn't be taking the kids anywhere. I would see them again Monday.
Of course I then proceeded to cry as this was very upsetting, how could this be possibly happening. I screamed under my breath "FUCK!!!" and called my husband who of course I couldn't get a hold of as he was at work (sort of, will explain in a minute), then I called my dad as my father would know what to do in a situation like this.
He told me to call the Glass company that does windshields and get an estimate done. I figured it would be $600 but after getting off the phone with the guy he quoted me $377. THANK GOD for that lol at least one thing was gonna go right.
Ok so here comes the next part of my exciting last 24hrs.
So last night I was sitting here waiting for my husband to call me to let me know he's home from work and see how the kids are etc. Well when I hadn't heard from him by 10pm I started to get worried he would usually call me once he got done work and was on his way home (an hour away). Well I called his coworkers room and K answered, I asked him where my husband was and he said "oh he's in the Hospital" my heart skipped a beat...."Excuse me WHAT!"
Ya that's where the convo got interesting. Turns out yesterday around 7pm he had been taken to the Hospital in order to get his back checked as it was hurting pretty badly and company policy is to take the person to the H. Anyways after a few hours there he was told it was a pulled muscle. Weeeeeeeeee GREAT so he will be out of work now for about a week and I have to pay for a windshield out of a one week paycheck on top of our regular bills.
Oh here's the clincher lol you're gonna love this part. I asked the Glass guys what time I could bring it in (remember I have no back windshield) and they said the part would be in tomorrow and I could bring the van in at 3pm. Uhm What the fuck am I supposed to do in the meantime leave it out there to get stolen.....oh boy what a day and when I tried guntaping plastic to the van it wouldn't stick because of course, IT'S FROZEN!!!!
So my day has gone from sleeping in = bad to perhaps not having a van when I wake up in the morning to take it in to get it fixed = worse.
So I refuse to leave my house as well 1. I have no vehicle and there is wayyyy too much snow out there. 2. My luck hasn't gotten any better yet today so I refuse to let badluck get the best of me and leave the house.
So I am not sure how anyone can say anything in my comments section to make me feel better but I doubt it and oh ya...don't tell me your grandparents just died etc as this would 1. honestly not surprise me 2. They were old like you didn't see that coming
The above is a whole other rant lol that I could get into and it would surely surprise some people that I would even think this way. Besides this is about me so if you're gonna whine about your day...please don't my day has been bad enough without having to listen to other people try to out-badluck me.
Sorry for being so rude but I have had enough today...not sure how much more I can take before I really lose it on a person and hurt their feelings (which again honestly wouldn't bother me today lmfao).
