The Sabbath day and the Devil Car

Sometimes you just need to take a day off. My dear husband reminded me of that today. I woke up feeling not very good, but proceeded to get ready for church. He asked me what I was doing and told me I was allowed to take days off. I thought about it for a minute and realized I no longer had responsibilities to fulfill at church, so I did what anyone else would do. I took the day off, but only if Jarred didn't. I made him take the boys to church. As I sat on the couch after they left I began to think of all the things I forgot to do Saturday, namely pick up something to make for dinner. So I decided I would go get something, but when I got out to Jarred's car I discovered it was out of gas. I decided to go get some before I went to the store. His car was also completely filthy so when the pump asked if I wanted a car wash for $5 I of course pushed the "YES" button. I proceeded on to the car wash and entered my given code and began to pull forward. That's when I got the SHOCK of the year. Upon entering the wash, the windows sensing something was about to happen, immediately rolled half way down. Knowing the water was gonna spray me in seconds I screamed profanity and tried to roll them up, but they rolled down all the way this time. The water sprayed me one way and then the other. Just as the soap got to the rear view mirrors the windows randomly rolled up. I barely missed the soap in the face. Well I left there dripping wet and went to the store anyway, where I got dinner and made it home with a few minutes to rest before my Boys came home. So much for a relaxing day off. I guess that's what I get for not keeping the Sabbath day Holy. Lesson learned.

Naughty, naughty. BTW that picture of Simon is adorable. Now you know what your little girl would look like if you ever had one. And of course you'd dress her like Little BoPeep everyday.
