OK, OK. No big deal. We had to run some errands this morning and he dropped me off so I could go inside an office. When he turned around, he backed into a car. It made a little dent. He didn't want to leave his number in the windshield so he took the license plate number down and thought he would just go to the police station and report it. So then we went to the police station.
I was waiting in the car. It took a long time! I was getting very concerned. Then I see him come out with two police officers! He walks over to me and tells me he has to go with the officers! They wanted to see where the "accident" took place. (!) They told him that they would bring him back to the office and I could drive the truck myself. (!!!!!!!!) This was the first time I had driven the truck and I was on my own! I watched as they took my husband away in the back of a police car! (I wish I had taken a picture!) Then I had to back out of a very tight spot and drive across traffic on a blind corner to get to the side of the road I needed to be on. Stress!
They finally brought him back to the office safe and sound. A funny thing is that the police ran the license plate number through the system to see if they could come up with a name. It said it was registered to a white, 4 door car. He hit a car that was a blue hatchback. Hmmmm..... The policeman said the person whose car was hit would probably not be reporting it to the police.
Anyway, that stressed us both out so we went home and had lunch. Reed got on his swim suit and took a dip in the pool and then laid on a lawn chair for an hour reading his conference talk notes. I rested on the bed, but I kept getting phone calls so I didn't get a lot of rest.
We came back to the office and will work late to make up for lost time.
In other news, I had strange dreams last night. One was that I was mad at Doug for using all of my mascara. I needed it to last until the end of my mission. I found him touching up his beard and hair with it; covering up the gray. Weird!
The other dream wasn't weird at all. It was wonderful. I dreamed I saw the Savior. He was a baby. Just lying there with a beautiful glow about him. I wanted it to last forever. I have been reading a book called the infinite atonement and it is really impacting me. I love it. I am learning lots about the atonement.
And it still other news, we went shopping at Cost U Less and I found a bag of potatoes from Aberdeen, Idaho! So cool! I posted it on Facebook and someone commented that it was a little hug from my Mom. I had not thought of that but it certainly could be! Today is two weeks to the day of her birthday and her first funeral. I sure miss her.
It's been a pretty good day.
