She had her meds first thing this morning and was very quiet (NOT like her), she limited herself when the others were running about like lunatics, poor Dallas couldnt understand why her mum was growling at her all the time, all she wanted to do was play mad with her mum. so rather than see Mads get nasty with the others and they in return get stressed, I took Morgan n Homer for a long outing to the lake, then when I came back at lunch, I had a quick chat with suz, then Dallas came to high country park with me, we finally got home at around 5pm. we went further than I've ever been and ended up we run out of park! then it happened, the heavens they did open and spew forth the most evil torrential rain along with the noisiest damn thuinder I've heard for a long time.
I went into major panic mode then coz thunder triggers my panic attacks, and asthma, I had no inhaler.. luckily there was a meeting of elderly men and two of them had the inhaler I needed, what a life saver. I sheltered with them for a while under the canal bridge but really wanted to get home. we were already soaked to the skin so Dallas and me carried on with our heads down.. well mine was.. dallas was still chasing bunny rabbits and squirrells.
b y the trime we reacghed the last open stretch before the hall the rain was bucketing.. omg I thought, well this is ist the home run, only I was that knackered I couldnt run lol from behind me I heard an engine, two work men in a pick up truck, they took pity on us, after they howled with laughter and sed to get up in the back of the truck, it is open but at least quicker than walking.. so one of them got out, lifted a soggy dallas then an even soggier me onto the truck and took us upto the hall, was only a five minute walk then to the car park. I didnt wanna get in the car with my clothes on but driving in the 'altogether' is illegal so I had to, was ok for Dallas coz she could lay and rub herself dry on the thick pile parcet in the back.. I had to drive in soggy clothes for half an hour.
