Not exactly how I planned to spend my morning…..

I got up this morning and set out on two errands.
- Pick up prescriptions at the pharmacy
- Get a new battery for my car because it has been acting up
Well, I arrived at the pharmacy around 8:30a to pick up the Rx. Discovered, oddly enough, they don’t open until 9:00a – so I thought, I will go to Sam’s and get the car battery and then come back. Went out to the car and …..
NOTHING.
Would not start. So, called a few friends – awesome friends – to see if anyone could get away and come jump-start me. Courtney to the rescue. However, the battery would not jump. So we bought some new jumper cables and tried again, same thing. I needed some anyway.
Next, called Charles to see if he had any ideas. He was asleep but ended up headed this way to help. Courtney and I decided to go ahead and head to Sam’s to get a battery. We called Charles and told him to meet us at the car when he got there.
Once back at the car with the battery we started to replace it – and 10 minutes later with a little help from another customer of the pharmacy who had some useful tools, we had the new battery installed. The moment of truth, I got in the car and…….
……yay ! It started.
So, not exactly how I had my morning planned out and I was about 6 minutes late for work. But, WOW, do I have awesome friends or what ?
