I am up late working on some code, and all of a sudden there is a really loud noise, and I look out my window and watch a car turn kind of sideways and roll over. As far as I can tell there wasn't a second car involved, but I don't know what could have happened to make him flip over like that. I called 911, and as I was talking to the guy I saw the driver slowly climb out the vehicle, and then sort of look in the car like he might be looking for a passenger, and then kind of crouched over and ran off.
I went out to see if there was a passenger, but there wasn't. One of his tires is in the middle of the road, so maybe it fell off and that caused it to flip?? The firemen are here now and are trying to figure out the best way to turn off the car. Hmmm... I guess bashing in the windows must have been fun, now they are in. There were tons of people who saw it for some reason - ie. what are people doing walking around at midnight.
It's Worth Finding A Good Pediatric Dentist!
Last month, I took Jonathan for his first dental checkup and cleaning. He did a great job, asking lots of questions and generally having a good time. But they did discover two huge fillings. The regular dentist doesn't do fillings for kids, so she had us make an appointment with the pediatric dentist who works in the same office.
In college, our friend Volus used to say that it was always sunny on Sunday. Even if it was gray in the morning, the sun was out by the time church was over. I found that he was right for the vast majority of the time. This weekend was no exception. Saturday was rainy, but Sunday dawned bright, clear, and beautiful.
Yesterday, I mailed the payoff check for our mortgage. This is very exciting for us. To be completely debt free (even of 'good' debt) and really truly own our house. Sure, it helps to have a house that didn't cost very much to start with. But we have been paying extra every month, and now there's enough in savings to pay off the balance. Ten years and thousands of interest dollars early, yay!
At the Shursave today, our favorite cashier, Robert, did a double take when he scanned the package of cheesecloth.
There is a lot of traffic, probably an accident ahead, so we decided to stop for a while, so it probably won't all that much difference.
We borrowed a cell phone and bluetooth adapter from work, so I have internet here. I was hoping to find a traffic advisory to tell us how far away the accident is, but haven't found anything yet. The traffic continues to trickle by, so I guess we should get going again.
