I needed to pick up my rental car this morning so that we could drop the truck off at the mechanic’s shop.
I get up early, call my momma and get her up, and then within an hour she and I were on our way to go to the car rental place. I get there, wait in line, and right before it is my turn I open my wallet and find that my driver’s license is missing.
Fuck.
Now I’m scrambling. Turning my purse upside down and inside out and searching my bra for a possible license. Nothing. Now I’m panicking and wracking my brain as to where it could possibly be and looking absolutely nuts. Great.
Thank Creator my momma decided to wait outside until I for sure had the rental. I would have been stuck there had she not waited for me. Thank you my momma!!! You are yet again a lifesaver.
Momma takes me home and me, Boyfriend, Son and Daughter all start tearing things apart in the house looking for my lost license. I’m near frantic. I start searching the MVD website trying to figure out how to get a temporary license while waiting for the new one to come in. I get everything situated and I’m starting to feel better when it hits me…I know where I left it.
At this point I have already called a couple different businesses that I frequent to see if they have seen it and everyone tells me no. That’s when it hits me.
The last time I physically used my license was when I was at the FedEx Kinkos near my home. I put it in the copy machine to make a copy to send with my renewal application to the Department of Health for my medical marijuana license. I remember making the copy and I don’t remember pulling it out of the machine.
So I call FedEx. They have it and I’m almost sobbing in relief.
I call Husband and let him know - he just laughs and says ok. He’s going to print out my temporary license for me just in case since my printer at home is busted.
What a morning…
It’s now about 1pm and after making a round of coffees for my children and myself I sit down to look through Airbnb’s for a trip to Vegas that my Husband and I are going to be making in October. It’s for a family event but we are leaving the kids home with Boyfriend. We are concerned about covid so we are trying to find a less populated hotel and area. This is no easy task.
Why in the world is everything in Vegas and the surrounding areas so fucking expensive? This is going to be a quick four day trip, two days in the car driving, and its still going to run us about $1k. It’s so ridiculous. And I’m still supposed to be saving for a trip to Cancun for December of 2022! My sister is getting married so we are taking all three adults, both kids, and have to pay for boarding for my two dogs and find someone to come feed the cats because boarding the cats would break my bank account.
Travelling is so stressful when you have an entire household you have to manage and get situated before you do.
I’m feeling some kind of ridiculous. At least two kinds.
Have a great day ya’ll!
