Today...

I knew it might rain, but I thought if it only sprinkles, we'll be okay. So I took Abby and Luke to the library and then to Sam's. No rain as we were leaving...no keys either. At Sam's with a cart full of stuff and no keys, just a wallet. So I bought Abby a cookie and a water to get some change for the pay phone and to keep her occupied. (Did you know the phones are $.50 now?!) My only option was to call Jason at work because he has the spare keys. Does anybody know the number for Quantum? I don't and neither did the phone book. So I called Jenny...then her cell phone...I don't have many phone numbers memorized so I called Beth. She kindly relayed a message to rescue me. Fifteen minutes later, Jason showed up, as did a giant rain storm. Jason, being a gentleman, pulled the car up near the door. We still got soaked loading the kids and the groceries. I've never been so rain-soaked in such a short time. I noticed in the rear-view mirror that I resembled Tammy Faye. I cleaned up and drove home without touching the back of the seat. Then I got soaked again just getting the perishable stuff into the house. I felt miserable just locking the keys in the car (even on a sunny day) so I felt 10 times as bad makng Jason and the kids be out in this rain. But Jason made us some lunch (he had to come home and change) so I felt a lot better.
