My Mom always used that phrase.... I guess Hoyle is a guy who wrote rules and instructions for card games..
I didn't post much last week because of this Hoyle guy not coming thru for me...
Started with Monday, finding Tessa with her knee the size of a grapefruit, Tuesday had to take Snooper (our old beagle boy - 13 or 14 years old) in for surgery to have a tumor hanging off his neck removed - it was REALLY, REALLY nasty... All the while going out to the barn 2x each day to "doctor" Tessa...
Wednesday - I can't even remember what went on..
Thursday - It's pouring rain and Bill decides to leave for work late to let the traffic clear out - well, I'm sure you can see where this is going - he gets 3 miles from home and is sitting in a left turn lane waiting to turn and a 16 year old girl driving WAY too fast for conditions with a DOG (yes, DOG) on her LAP which she obviously was messing with smashes into his nice Acura going (according to the police report) 25 mph WHEN she hit him, pushing him into the intersection into another car. He declines ambulance service but agrees (to me) to take him to the ER to be checked out.. So, dealing with all that AND "doctoring" Tessa AND getting ready for the 4H Fair AND trying to clean my house as my Mom was coming on Friday to visit and see Bree compete in the 4H Fair...
So, last week was a mess. 4H Fair is over. Mom, Bree and I had a great couple of days this week and Mom and Bree left today for Tennessee - (Back home for Mom) - Well, they were half way there (south of Effingham on 57) and Mom just doesn't get a flat tire she BLOWS a tire.. To the point that a trucker, a state trooper and IDOT worker had to take a hammer and jack handle to wedge the pieces of rubber and steel belt from the tire OUT of the underbody of her Yukon (SUV) so that her wheel would turn - Needless to say, they were a little shaken (not hurt - just the nerve adrenaline hitting) -
They called just a bit ago and said they made the rest of the journey without incident.
So, HOYLE, if you're listening - CUT IT OUT! ENOUGH (you realize that FUN spelled backwards is NUF) - just another one of my dear Mom's sayings....

You are just haveing a week full of Paige-asters--happens to everyone eventually. You are safe until the world starts calling them Lornasters.
And thankfully, all sounds like it was minor after the dust cleared, and that is what matters
Sorry to hear so many things happen. I am glad to hear that everything turned out okay
Oy my God, woman! Glad everything worked out okay, at least. But holy wow bejinkins, really.
And tell your husband, he's a bright guy and I do adore him, but refusing transport after an accident like that was just plain dumb, even if he did call you and go to get checked out later. Dude. D-U-M.
