ICE!!!
When I left for work today, everything was covered with a layer of ice! It was nearly impossible to take a step! I walked out to get the newspaper and it took me 6 minutes to go up and down the driveway to the road to get it. I just slid my feet and shuffled in baby steps. It was raining when I left for work and I thought oh, good, it`s warming up. I got about 3 houses down form my driveway and my windshield iced all over! I had to pull off and get it defrosted before I could go on. The roads weren`t bad, mostly just wet.
When I got to work, I put one foot out of the car door, and it went sliding right out from under me, luckily I was still mostly sitting down. I closed my door and waited for my friend Don to pull in, he parks near me. When he got out of his truck, I opened my door and yelled to him that I couldn`t get out. He came sliding over to me and got me out, shut my car door, carried my purse and lunch and held my hand all the way into work! What a Sweetie! But we are supposed to have more ice on Friday morning. I think if we do, I`m not going to do this again, it`s too nervewracking. I might just wait at home till it melts. I don`t think a $.10 above minimum wage job is worth wrecking your car or yourself over.
What a morning!

Good thing your friend was on his way, and what a gentleman.
You trying to get out of the car reminds me of something that happened to me a few years ago when there was a layer of ice in the driveway. I was living with a friend at the time, saving up some money for my own apartment and on my way to work while her kids were standing at the bus stop with the other neighborhood kids just in front of the house. I went ot get into the car, and with one foot in the car and the other on the ice, I slipped and fell on my butt and there went my purse and everything. So I was a little embarassed knowing all the teenagers were looking adn trying not to snicker. I tried again, and fell on my butt again. This time the kids couldnt' help but laugh out loud. So I tried to get into the car again, and fell on my butt and this time....I laid there in the ice and laughed my fanny off. I mean one of those hnysterical I am going to pee my pants types of a laughter. LOL I finallyh got into the car successfully the 4th time, the teenagers clapped and cheered, and I honked and waved as I drove away. I felt quite accomplished that day just getting into the car. LOL
God's Blessings,
