I thought it would be a decent week, I was ready to go to the gym 4 days this week... so what happened? Let's see, on Monday I think school was delayed, so I couldn't go to the gym on Monday. Tuesday... I was all set to go , Mady was going to go to her little dance class and I planned to work out...all the kids were in the car ready to be dropped off at school, I just wanted to see if Seth was on his way home so he could say good-bye to the kids before I took off. I pulled out of the driveway and parked on the street because I wanted to check my phone to see if Seth was on his way home. So as I was sitting in the car checking my phone...parked... because I am a cautious driver... I look in my mirror to see this minivan driving down the road and I noticed he wasn't moving over the slightest and I knew he was going to hit my mirror... I kept tying to convince myself that he wasn't gonna hit it, but this all happened within seconds... but sure enough, he drove by and took my mirror off... and HE DIDN'T STOP!! I laid on the horn but he kept going. I managed to get the license number though! So I thought I might be able to catch up to him, I didn't. I say a cop sitting in a parking lot so I pulled up and told him what happened and he said he would have an officer come by the house after I dropped the kids off. Lucky I got that plate number! The police were able to track down the driver and I was able to get a police report with his insurance information to file a claim. The mirror costs over $200 plus $100/hr labor for installation. So I saved close to $500 by writing the number on my hand..glad that I wrote it down too, because I totally forgot it by the time I got home!
So Wednesday I had to go to the college to take a test for admittance into the radiography program. I thought it was odd that the girls there to take the test were all taking a different test than what I needed to take, so when the proctor finally came out to take our money, she said "That test isn't now" Luckily, I brought the actual appointment card I was given, because I am paranoid, that is clearly printed "PSB Test" with the time and date written on it.... she was nice enough to accommodate me, but it took her an hour, literally an hour, to set up the computer for my test. So that caused some pre-test anxiety.... I did OK on the test, I would have liked to have gotten a higher score, I got a 90 on academic aptitude and 84 on natural sciences. So hopefully those scores are high enough to get me in the program. I don't have a back up plan.. this is it... I need to get in the program this year. Although I am stressed as the program starts in June instead of when the kids are going to be in school.... that is going to be tough. We'll work it out though.
The oil burner man came yesterday to service the boiler, finally, we missed a service last year...it took him a long time and he had to replace a couple of important parts, but... it is done and I feel better for that!
