This has been a very hard week for me and I am super down. I hurt my angle badly on Thursday last week. Had to call and cancel most of my work (I am self employed) the transmission went out on my truck on Monday that same week. One of my clients let me use their farm truck because they were headed out of town and needed me to watch the sheep and horse. I couldn't do any extra stops because of my ankle that whole week. My phone died lost most of my contacts and all my note and work data. Got my truck back from the shop -!1600 and when to my first stop yesterday and had a pool of transmission fluid under it.the shop had forgot a gasket on the transfer case. I was already on an emergency call had to taketruck back to the shop. Get the loner truck back go back to 1st stop. Horse there had cut her legs all to shreds owner is gone, called vet had to wait 4 hours. Final get home. Hubby brings me a new phone -$200. Try and go to work today loner truck dies on the side of the road with me and my 2yearold got the lady with hurt horse from yesterday to come get him. Waited on tow truck in pouring rain now have no way to get to work or to pay for truck.....:(

Just a stumbling block....
Let me share a little story about guardian Angels... My boys and I were on our way home from Texas we were on a time constraint to get home in time for something. We were on I-35 heading north and found a gas station with cheap gas, we were going to need some before we got home. When we stopped for gas it took forever... I went in to pay and the people in line in front of us didn't speak english, the poor casheir was frazzled. I was getting really peeved.. Long story short, when we finally got back on the road, we come up on an deadly accident, a 4-wheeler had bounced off it's trailer and landed on the following car. We had passed that trailer shortly before we stopped for gas. I told the boys that GOD put those non-english speaking people in our way to keep us from getting killed. And for the most part the traffic didn't stop completly.
SO maybe all this is to keep you safe... the money thing I got not help with that part.
