So, I picked up a cute chest of drawers from a family who was moving to New Orleans ~ the husband was getting transferred and they were trying to sell alot of their furniture ~ this particular chest of drawers was perfect for what I was planning on doing. Then, I had a client who was looking for accent tables and these were PERFECT too. 
So, we're driving down the freeway, going about 65 mph, radio on 99.1 (Sunny), just talking away ~ I felt the road a little funny but I figured, oh, its just THIS freeway ~ there is no way it's my SUV (remember, I had a flat about three weeks ago already). Then, all of a sudden, BAM ~ a loud noise and black rubber starts flying everywhere. I HAD A BLOWOUT ~ Thank God it was one of my back tires. So, now what? Well, I sat in my SUV for about 5 minutes and my phone rings, ~ its my son. "Hey mom, where are you? I'm coming over to your house" ~ well, what great timing. Needless to say, my son came to my rescue right away ~ let me make this short cause I have lots of painting to do ~ after he went a picked up a new tire for me (well, I paid for it, but he went and got for me....lol) I said, lets go eat something ~ its been a heck of a hot day. When I told my son WHERE we were going, he said "whatttt?"""" I said yes, that is where we are going. He knows I very budget conscious and don't like to splurge on fancy restuarants ~ so, we went to a nice mexican restaurant that is a little pricey but their food is fantastic......I ordered WATER for everyone (drinks are almost $2.00 each) and then I said, o.k. ~ mom, Nel and I , we will share a meal and son, you can have your own ~ no problem ~ we're use to doing this (sharing)......
The food that they brought us was plenty and then some ~ then the best part ~ my ticket was only $17.20 for all of us ~ yeppers, when you order water, add lemons and sweet & low ~ lemonade at no charge! This turned out to be a wonderful day.
