From Bad To Worse

Have you ever had a day that makes you feel like nothing is going right? Well let me share mine. On Friday I got out of school and waited fourty five minutes for my mom. I found out that her car had broken down and a belt had come loose or something. She finally made it to pick me up and then we went home to pack for my tournament in Topeka, Kansas. My dad looked at the car and found out that he couldn't fix the problem because he didn't have an extra part. My mom and I tried to find a ride but had no luck. We settled for using our little truck which barely holds two people. To make it worse my brother and dad had just left to go to Tulsa with my grandpa to race cars. My brother took his keys to the truck. My mom and I had no choice but to drive thirty minutes out to my grandpa's shop in the convertible and then go back for the truck. You are probably asking why we didn't take the convertible? Well it has really bad gas mileage and it also has a small problem. We had to cram some of the luggage into the inside of the truck and put the rest in the back in plastic bags because we were expecting rain. The five hour drive to Kansas was very "cozy." Finally we got to Kansas and I was wiped out. I fell asleep as soon as we got to the hotel. What a weekend!
