CJ's Gymnastics Meet

On Saturday we drove to the west side of Cleveland for CJ's gymnastics meet. The drive there was fine, road where good. CJ did really well and got a lot of blue ribbons. He got a blue overall, so he did really well.

We got there at 4:30 and we left at 8:00. When we came outside it was snowing. CRAP! My front tires are partly bald and water and slush make me go all over the place. Let me tell you that was the worst night of my life!! It took me 2 hours to get home which is only 30 mintues more then it took me to get there but I was SO SO SO SO stressed out!!! My whole body hurt by the time I got home. My hands where asleep from gripping the wheel so hard, I lost my voice and I never even spoke all the way home! That was some scary shit!!!

When we were only 30 minutes from home a blizzard hit and I could barely see a thing! I had to keep telling myself that I was going to make it, that I was fine, I was doing great, only 3 more exits to go, etc. When I got off the interstate I was almost crying with relief! It was wonderful to pull into the driveway.

Chuck said that we HAVE to fix my tires and get the truck aligned. It's so bad!! :( It wasn't till we were home that I found out I couldn't talk! I had to use the heating pad on my lower back as it hurt really bad. I didn't get to sleep till after midnight either.

I will post his videos sometime when I have the time to upload them. Takes hours you know!

OH, yeah! I remember all to well scary driving all over creation with Jess. I especially remember across 90 there in OH going by the stadium. I don't think the semi thought the lack of visibility was a problem. I almost went south over that curve in blinding, blowing snow. Stinks!
