Okay. . . well today was a ROUGH LONG BORING day!!
Jesse, Rayna & I were headed to my parents. Kymberlee & Dariyn were already there. However, about 10-13 minutes from home, we had a car problem!! At the time, I had no idea what happened. This was approximately, 1:30pm. We JUST got this car 30 days before (end of May) . . and this is our first time purchasing a "new-to-us" vehicle from a "place" - instead of through a private person-to-person purchase.
So, I called home - which was hard too because I wasn't getting a signal well on my cell phone! Anyways, I called Jaymz at home & he called the place. They said they would send the tow truck out as soon as he got back - as he was out on another call. I also called my mom to tell her we would be who knows how long & what happened.
So, we waited.
and waited.
and waited.
and waited.
At 2:30, still no truck. . . My parents came & got Jesse & Rayna so they didn't have to sit in the hot car with me & wait. . BOY It was warm today! It kept looking like rain. . . but held out. They got there about 2:30 to pick them up.
And I continued to wait.
and wait.
and wait.
and wait.
Around 3:40 or so it rained. I was so happy! LOL! Me & the flats were hot in the car & MORE than tired of waiting!
and we continued to wait.
and wait.
and wait.
FINALLY, at 5pm the tow truck shows. I think they are just taking me to Kingston - to the place I got the vehicle (about 40 mins from where I was) & NO - they are taking me to Poughkeepsie, which is across the bridge from my house (down the road @ 40 minutes from my mom on her side of the river). From where we are & the way we were going, it would take us an hour & 1/2 to get to the place.
The tow truck guy says. . . Is someone picking you up? And I'm like no - I have no Car - I NEED a car. . So he calls. . . and they work out a loaner. . . (um yea I had the car just barely a month!) We get there at 6:30 & I finally get to head back up to my parents.
(We live across the river from them - takes about an hour from our house to get to theirs). I get their at about 7:15pm. Mom & I have tea. We visit a little bit & then we head home. .
By that time I am tired, and pretty miserable. . . with a well-set in migraine! :(
We left there at about 15 to 8pm. I had a call earlier about a bunny so we stopped by home, got dad & headed to Newburgh to meet a lady & get another baby bunny.
Finally got to her at 9:20pm!
Got home at 10:30pm.
And the bad didn't end there. . . When we got home, 2 of my baby bunnies were dead!! I was so upset! I had kept these little buggers going for 2 wks!! So, I decided right then I was letting #3 go the next day! I wanted to give him a chance back in the wild. I let his friend go with him, as there didn't seem to be any need for me - He moved ok, ate & wasn't dehydrated.
The end of a LONG, Bad day. . . . What a day!! :(
