Living the Thrifty Life: Day 1 (Well-- Half Day, Really!)

Here I am, my first day in good ol' Ohio. It took just around 13 hours to get here, and it wasn't that great of a trip on the way. We left at night, so we can travel when the kids (and the dog!) slept. As far as that goes, easy-peasy. That was about all that went well.

Then,about a quarter of the leg, a gray Honda Civic passes me at around 90 mph. Next thing I know, I am coming around the curve, and I see the same car smashed to bits after it hit the guard wall at that speed. There was barely a car left, but the driver and passenger somehow made it out alive. Surprisingly. I'm sure they won't do that again.

Next, at around 2 am in Anderson County, TN-- I start seeing black smoke. No bueno, right? Well, I turn around that curve, and I see a semi truck burning. I was just hoping that nobody was in the cab when that happened. It was bad. I can't find anything on the news about it yet, so I'm assuming they are still investigating. When I find something, I'll post it. It was awful, and the worst thing I have ever seen on the road.

I started to get real bad anxiety, and I couldn't wait until we would arrive! We finally made it here at around 8 am, but I was so tired. I was so hyped up on caffeine, yet my body was exhausted. I said hello to everybody, grabbed a blanket, and took a nap! At around 2 pm, I woke up, and we hung out for a while. Then my mom and I delivered some pool chemicals to a customer and grabbed some pizza for dinner. Man, it was so good! It amazes me that the pizza where I live is so bland. The pizza here is just so delicious! When we got back, we got a good fire going and just hung out.
