Well, it's 3:15 in the morning and once again, I can't sleep. I have a very busy day ahead of me too. Work finds me in the Clemson Road office (a 30 minute drive) in the morning and then downtown in the afternoon. At least I'm not seeing patients this afternoon. Hopefully I can bust it and get out of there early. I'm sure I've had overtime this week.
So, last weekend....... Wesley, Madison and I drive up to hang out with wonderful friends, Katie and Michael. We are headed up to Albermarle, NC for a fun-filled weekend, with Jeep and Rhino in tow. We are just about to the lake house and we get stopped by NCHP, and we're not speeding. We get stopped b/c we don't have a Truck Tag!!!! Long story short, after an hour wait, and $580 bucks later, we are headed to the lake house. Of course, I'm in a bad mood and Wesley can't believe this stinkin' ticket. None the less, we eat some lunch and head out on the lake. Oh, did I mention how awesome this lake house is!!!!!! Madison tries her first run at tubing!!!! She did fantastic!! Such a brave girl. I did some wakeboarding, or wake crashing! Then a little skiing. Katie kicked butt on the skis and Wesley showed off on the wakeboard.
We had a great dinner!!!!! Aside from great friends (and a new one, Michael's brother) the six of us ate for $10!!!! I love couponing!! Next day, we have a wonderful breakfast, about $10 there too! Then we head out to Uwharrie to show Katie and Michael a good time rock crawling. The girls pile in the Jeep and the boys in the Rhino. I'm driving the Jeep, start up a trail and an incline.... I stall out, get a little nervous, get it together (or so I thought) and all of a sudden, we start rolling backwards and gaining speed. I turn the wheel and slam into the embankment. Bam! We roll over. Katie's seatbelt pops out and I see her crashing to the floor, errr, roof. Oh, did I mention that my 3-year-old is in the back!!!!!! So, stunned, hanging upside down, I hear Wesley helping Katie, and Madison says "look at all the rocks" or something to that nature. Come to find out, she was still upside down!!! I scream, she screams. The entire time I'm upside down, I just knew I was bleeding from somewhere. Wesley gets me out, stands me up, I fall. Just a bit wobbly. With the exception of a pretty good goose egg on Katie's melon and a couple of bruises and headaches, we are all fine! God is so good!!!! So, we get the Jeep flipped back over, poor in some engine oil (cause we lost some) and jump back in the vehicles. Katie and I in the Rhino, Katie is driving!!! and the boys and Madison in the Jeep. We had an amazing rest of our day!!!! Can you believe it? We really did have a great time! I'll just add, no more Jeep and wheelin' for Madison!
