My chair topper had a problem on Monday; subsequently, the car was undrivable because the topper wouldn’t stay closed. My brother, Steve drove me to work and on Tuesday, and my brother, Jimmy secured the chair topper closed Tuesday evening so my Mom could drop the car off that night for the topper to be serviced. It was ready Wednesday afternoon. My brother, Steve drove me to work on Wednesday as well (he also works in Southwest Detroit) and my Mom picked me up at the end of the school day. She drove me to pick up my car. Driving from Southwest Detroit to Wayne to get my car took some time.
I had called Elle to tell her what was going on and that I might not make it. I didn’t SERIOUSLY think I wasn’t going to make it, just maybe be a little late. After I got my car, it was obvious that I wasn’t going to make my 5 o’clock training time at Barwis and IT WAS “Wacky Sock Wednesday”!!!
When I came to the realization that I wouldn’t make it (I hadn’t been there since last Friday!), I did what I ALWAYS do in this type of situation… I cried… A LOT!
