I have gas

That is the text I received from my wonderful husband this morning as I waited on the side of the road for him to come and rescue me and 2 of the girls. It made me laugh even though I knew that what he meant was he had gotten a gas tank and filled it so that he could bring me gas.

I found out today that when my truck says that I have 1 mile until empty, it really means it. The best part was that I could see the gas station from where the truck died. We were out of the traffic thankfully so sitting and waiting wasn't too bad...HA!! The whole thing still makes me laugh. When my husband got there, he asked if anyone had stopped to help. I told him no and inside I was really kind of thankful. If I didn't have a phone or friends who could help me out, it might have been a different story but the thought of a stranger pulling up behind me and asking me if I needed help would have totally freaked me out. It's not like I was in a bad area or anything, I would just rather be left alone sometimes.

So, note to self (and to all of you) don't let your gas tank get that low unless you are sure the gas station is less than a mile away!!
