accidents

my car got towed this morning. they've been doing leaf cleanup on our streets and i thought it was over but apparently today was the last day. i'm waiting for gareth to get ready to go so we can pick it up. that's sixty dollars less to spend on christmas presents this year. gareth's offered to pay for half. i'd been budgeting to actually get nice presents for everyone this year so that'll help. it's been a pretty hectic week. our store flooded for the third time this week. the first time i've opened though. i did everything i thought i was supposed to but when i called the manager to let him know what was going on he told me to pull out the shop vac from the back and start cleaning it up myself. i was not happy about this. he hadn't done that the two times before. and i was very unhappy when someone else got there and said i shouldn't be touching anything that was wet because it was close to an electric outlet and i could get shocked. more things are adding up on the negative side with him lately. i just read on here about a friend who had an accident driving this past weekend when it snowed. that's the day gareth and i drove back home to decorate. it was a good time but pretty scary driving my car in the snow for the first time. i'm glad i didn't have the same thing happen to me. we had a cat follow gareth home last night. i took some food and warm milk out for him. he was so sweet. i wished i could bring him in from the cold. i hope he had a nice warm home of his own.
