Horrible No Good Terrible Very Bad Day

[rikkiandjulie]

I am so embarrassed. I ran out of gas today and had to call the cops to help me push because I obviously can't. My debit card is on its way in the mail, and I gave my wife my credit card to use at IKEA and on her roadtrip to Colorado in case of an emergency. (She doesn't have one, and I don't want to pay the authorized user fee)

The cops push it to a safe place and I'm just inside sobbing. God the wheel is hard to turn when you don't have gas.

I walk the 1.5 miles home in 105 degree weather, and after a cool shower I just want to sob.

My aunt is taking me to put gas in it. We have a full gas can in the car, I just don't want to walk UPHILL in this heat with a gas can again.

Ugh. Hopefully the stress doesn't hurt little bean.

Oh no!!!
That is a horribly stressful day. I'm sure everything will be good with little bean. Many women do random things before they even know they are pregnant and everything is good.

Just try to relax and stay calm. It's upsetting, but it will be okay. ☺️

Oh no! What a crappy situation! I'm sure little bean can handle it; they ate pretty resilient.

Take care of you and tomorrow should be a better day.

I am so very sorry that you have had such a crappy day. That really sounds AWFUL!
J used to run out of gas all the time. Her old car would hover at 1/4 tank and then just DROP suddenly to E. I think she ran out 3-4 times before we instituted a rule that she could never have less than 1/2 a tank in that car. Thankfully we traded in that darn car, but it was always so stressful, and she never ran out of gas in 105 degree heat while pregnant. You poor thing! I hope today and this weekend are much, much better for you!

That is an awesome idea!!!
We are headed to Ontario at the end of Aug for a wedding. We are going, 10% for the wedding (they've been living together for over 10 years) and 90% to see family and friends.
Can not wait!! It's always good to see family. ☺️
