Yesterday, I got my car stuck in the snow. I don't know how it happened, but I ended up with one side of my car in snow so deep that it wouldn't go anywhere. My knight in shining armor came to my rescue. All we could think to do was dig out the tires with a snow shovel. We made some good headway but it still wasn't working. A man in a big truck drove up, much to our shagrin (did I use that word right?). He laughed at us, told us we were young and to chalk this up as our first experience. He had a cable, so he and my fiance rigged it up somehow to both of our cars because neither of us had hooks (I had a loop thing that's supposed to be used for towing, but the cable also had a loop). It looked good to me, even though I had no idea what they were doing. Did anyone see that video online where they were pulling a car out of the snow and they ripped off his whole front bumper??? I had that image going through my head over and over again.... So, he gets in my car and the man tells me to stay back. I watch as my car is jerked out of the ditch and around the road. Out, at last!!!!! But, not without a good case of whiplash for my knight in shining armor. I spent most of the day massaging it and then at night got to play nurse with the icy hot stuff, trying to nurse him back to health. I guess you can say it was a day of displaying our individual talents and what we have to offer each other.

This morning we lost my engagement ring. Yep, sure did! It wasn't a happy experience. Found it, though, and it's all safe and sound on my finger (not leaving the safety of my hand anytime soon!)
