Bodyshop guy tried some reality tv humor with us today. He sent a text asking if we could stop by the shop tomorrow afternoon. Nothing bad he said. Just need to go over a few things.
I broke out into a cold sweat. I thought "now what? Nothing bad, as in, it can be fixed but it is gonna cost $$$."
So my lady politely answered "yes, how does 4p.m. sound?" She also added "sooo, don't leave us in suspense. What is it?"
At that point Brad (bodyshop owner) texted this picture. Mind you, I'm driving our 01 Suburban with two kids in the back with crummy traffic all around us and I hear "OHHHHHH!!!" I about crapped and sideswiped a car next to us. Fortunately for me a red light halted our forward momentum and I was able to eyeball my wife's phone screen. Suffice it to say, I'm not a wear my emotions on my sleeve kind of guy, I got misty eyed and a bit choked up. My old self of four years ago was not capable of managing and paying for such a project for my wife.
I can hardly wait to get to wrenching. That I CAN DO!
