Pooped

I am soooo tired right now.  This is going to be a quick entry just to catch everyone up on my day.  I had a beautiful morning.  Temps in the mid 60's and no humidity.  I had to be at work at 11:30 am this morning as Tuesday's we have Bible study for all staff ladies. (I just love working at church!)  Well, about 1/2 mile from church, my truck starts making this horrible sound, like metal grinding against metal.  I pulled into a parking lot and was able to idle over to a parking place.  The engine is running fine, but when you put it into drive and touch the gas pedal, the horrible sound comes back.  So, I went inside and called my work and asked them to send someone to get me.  Then onec I got to work my day was wonderful.  Katie came and picked me up at 5:00 and I came home and made a fantastic dinner.  After dinner, Robert and I had to go get the truck. (About 8 miles from here) We had to chain up to it and I drove Robert's truck while he was in mine.   We drove 15 mph the whole way home through traffic and red lights. . .ahhhh!  But it's home safe and sound. Now I have to bum rides and share a car with Katie until it gets fixed. 

Well, I am sooo exhausted.  I'm heading off to bed now.  Talk again tomorrow.

We had a car one time that did the same thing - hate to tell you but it was the transmission.  Hopefully it's not the same for you.
