A Fourteen Hour Day

So as I woke up this morning I thought today is going to be a great day. And it was, until 8 am to be presice, when something was said that went too far. Instead of fighting, I just turned inward and was quiet for the majority of my work day. The day went by slow since the work was not rolling in. I left work around 4:45pm to go buy make up because I wanted to try some of the stuff Kristie's mom did when we were in the MA. Around 5:30pm I get a call from my friend Carly and her car was broken down past Nephi. That is approximately 100 miles away. Work is closed and I have no tools. So i go buy a few essentials and the new part, then began the trek. I got there around 7:50, the belt had broken and wrapped itself around many pulleys and the fan. Not thinking I would need a cutting device and what kind of girl carries a knife? So all Carly has to cut is toe nail clippers. As I lay under her car on the side of the freeway and cut away the strands of belt with toe nail clippers. Next I try to put the new belt on, which the tensioner is ten times harder to loosen since my day at work had already happened. So as lucky as I am Carly is great with instructions, I pulled and she reinstalled the belt. Halleluijah!!!!!!!!! Started up the car and ran like a charm, was then able to make the 2 hour trek back to my house.
