What a long weekend
I know it sounds really bad that I am saying this but I hate that I had almost a week off from school. I mean it was nice to relax but I really didn’t get a chance to do that. Well on Friday I had to get my boat out of the water and put in storage for the winter Saturday I got up early to take out my dock I thought that I was going to be in deep trouble because I don’t have any waiters but I was luck because another guy that was there to help had a really bad cold So I just used his. Once we started taking things apart I realized that the water wasn’t really that cold so even if I didn’t have the waiters then I think everything would be ok. Once we finished with the dock and put everything away I came home took a shower grabbed something to eat and sat down on the couch and watched some college football. Like usual I had to take a little cat nap. I woke up around 10 that night watched a little more TV and went to bed for the night. Sunday I usually just relax watch football and enjoy the day off but that didn’t happen this time. I received a phone call at 8:30 from my dad he told me to get some work clothes on that he had a job for me to help him with. He didn’t go into details but I just had a feeling that it was not going to be fun at all. When I pulled up to this house I didn’t see the truck in the driveway. It was weird that it was not in its normal spot but then I remembered that he went to my uncles and cut up wood so he can keep the house warm all winter. I got out of my car and walked around the barn and there was his truck. SMASHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I asked him “What the hell happened. He just looked up at me and said “I was cutting down a tree and it ended up falling the wrong way.” I was like no sh*t and went to the back of the truck to see how much damage it did to the truck. It landed right on the back of the truck but it could not have landed on a better place right over the axles so the shocks and springs took most of the force. I was just happy that it didn’t smash the cab cause then it would not be drive able. We worked on the box for about 2 hours and finally got everything lose to take the box off the truck. Once the box was off of the vehicle we went around the truck and made sure that there was nothing wrong with the frame. It was a miracle but the frame was not bent at all which was amazing because if the frame was bent the truck would be useless but on the good note at least he would get a new truck. so need less to say if you know anybody that has a box for a Chevy pick up truck has to be long bed that they are will to sell please let me know

Poor dad. I hope you don't tell him about this post it might not make him happy. That sounds like something I might do.
