Our power went out for a few minutes this morning, but it's no big deal, I woke up when I heard the power come back on. Exactly 6 am. So, I stayed up to make sure that Rob got up for work since the clock needed ot be reset. I woke him up at 6:30, not wanting him to be late for work, and he wanted me to take the car so that I can go to the grocery store, and wouldn't have to walk there. We got onto I480, and then stopped. Traffic was standing still. A dump truck hit a road sign (one of those green ones that goes across the highway), and they had closed off 2 of the 4 lanes, so it go backed up for miles. And, of course- this just had to be the ONE morning when I forgot the cell phone! So, there we were, stuck in traffic. I was so happy this morning because we got out the door on time, and he wasn't going to be late- and we got stuck in traffic! LOL! We got to his job, and I started to drive away. Then, I heard Rob call to me. I put the car in park, and his boss came walking up. He said, "Look, Melinda- if you're going to take Rob to work, then you have to get him here on time." I'm freakin' out because I didn't drive him, he drove, and because there was nothing we could do about traffic. He didn't get to work until 7:45, and he was supposed to be there at 7. Then I noticed Rob's face. He was trying so hard not to laugh! (He told me I looked like I wanted to cry!!) His boss joked with me for a minute, and then asked me to come inside because he had something for me. I went inside and followed them inside to the office. He gave me a package of bagels, and 2 boxes of donuts- one for us, and one to give to my parents. Jim is like that. He is always giving us something. He is so nice, which is why I freaked out when he was pretending to be mad at me.
