A day from hell


Last week was no so good.
Well this was our Thursday morning!!! The maroon truck was Wilsons. “Was” is the key word in that sentence. First let me say he is fine. A little sore today but fine. The guy in the white car pulled out in front of him and hit him in the front right tire. Knocked the tire off and sending him into on coming traffic. Instead of hitting the on coming cars he went for the ditch. The white stuff where the tire should be is sand bags covered with chicken wire. They are doing construction on that road and they put that there for flood control.
Needless to say they called today and said the truck is totaled. As you can see the passenger door is closed at the bottom and not at the top. The bed is into the cab,
the tire is missing, the front axel is broken, the windshield is broken, the air bags deployed, etc. Get this - the guy who was driving the other car just got his car back from another accident he had!!!! You could tell he wasn’t all there. When he hit Wilson he
walked over and asked him if he was alright and then said “I have to call my Mom”. He said he never saw Wilson. I felt bad for the guy but he could have seriously hurt my husband. The Highway Patrol gave him a ticket for running a stop sign. It’s a felony
ticket because he caused an accident. I didn’t even know they had felony tickets????
Now we are searching for a new truck, or at least new to us. New trucks are so expensive, hell used ones aren’t cheap. We went and looked last night and I think I am going to have to go and leave Wilson at home. LOL He looks at something and says “I want that one”. I’m like “No, we can’t afford that one” and he replies with “well we can figure it out”. NO WE CAN’T!!! I told him I’m gonna have to just bring home a picture of a truck and say “do you like this one?” and then just have him sign the paperwork. It doesn’t help that the truck they gave us as a rental is a 2009 Chevy Silverado 4 door that is fully loaded. I was scared the insurance company wasn’t even going to pay off the truck but what they are offering right now will pay off the truck and give us about a five thousand dollar down payment so that is not too bad. The only problem we have now is your Wilsons credit. He has no credit which to a dealership is worse than bad credit apparently. That may be a challenge for us.
Guapo is doing better I guess. On Thursday when we finally got home from the wreck Wilson walked out to check on Guapo and he had pulled out his own drain plugs and now there is a huge hole on his shoulder. There is not any skin to stich it to so it’s just going to have to heal on it’s own. I can tell you he is getting more and more irritated by the day at the whole situation. Frankly, I am too but what are ya going to do. He’s my baby and I have to take care of him even if he is a pain in the ass. I think the vet is just going to give us some more antibiotics to put in his grain so hopefully it won’t get infected. **crossing my fingers**
Also on Thursday Wilson got into it with Kevin. Kevin (the ex-wife’s husband) called and said Garrett was sick and Wilson needed to go get him and take him to the doctors. Wilson said “Man, I just got home – I got into an accident this morning and I need to check on a sick horse – can you give me just a minute.” And Kevin said “you just need to man up and be a Dad and go take your son to the doctor”. Now, this is where I would have lost it but Wilson is a much better person than I am because all he did was hang up on him and then call Garrett to see what was going on. I would have told that morally bankrupt piece of shit to kiss my ass and then proceeded over there to show him how I planned to “man up”.
Anyway, the whole story is Lori had gone into labor the day before and they were all at the hospital and Kevin didn’t want to take him to the doctor, his friend Dave couldn’t take Garrett to the doctor and Kevin’s parents (who are in town) couldn’t take Garrett to the doctor so Kevin decided he had no other choice but to call Wilson and when Wilson couldn’t drop everything at that exact second he spewed his “man up”.
I told Wilson what I thought it was from the beginning and come to find out – I was right (I really enjoyed typing that last part). Garrett wasn’t really sick, he just wasn’t getting any attention. They had let him stay out of school the day before and stay the day at the hospital and all the attention was going towards that new baby. Well the next day when they were all going to the hospital and he had to go back to school he decided to say he was sick. Wilson called him and asked him what hurt and Garrett told him his stomach hurt and he couldn’t sit down but his head hurt and his throat hurt and he couldn’t breath. There was just too many things that had nothing to do with each other. He was crying and Wilson could barely understand him. Wilson went and got him and took him to the doctor and they said all he had was “allergies”. After the doctors appointment he went back to school. The sad part about this is – Garrett has just become the extra kid for them. Now they have a baby that is “theirs”. Garrett does a lot of stuff for attention and this is going to be just the beginning of things getting worse. That is just my opinion.
So basically Thursday sucked. LOL
But this too shall pass. It always does and just when I think we have gotten past all the crappy stuff and back on track something else crappy will happen. It’s just life. Guess that’s what makes it interesting. J Better than the alternative.
Onto a happy subject. I went to the baby doctor on Friday. I had to have a procedure done to check and make sure all my tubes were open and ready for business (HSG). They are thank goodness. I think between Wilson and I we have had every test done on the face of the earth and frankly I am ready to get this show on the road. Tomorrow I have to have a blood glucose test done – I guess they are testing for diabities? I have to go in at 8 and have my blood drawn, then drink something and go back 2 hours later to have my blood drawn again. Sounds fun huh?
Our real appointment with Dr. Rodriguez is on the 28th so I will know more then!!!!

This week will be better --- it has to be.
