Sometimes good things come out of bad situations- Today was one of those.
A chore that I have being putting off for the longest time was washing my truck. It is no fun in the winter and usually a good car wash is followed by a couple inches of snow- which I did not want.
I couldn't hold out any longer, so my son and I headed to "Catonsville Car Wash" on Route 40 for a "self service wash". My junior helper did not last long so he got back in the truck to watch his movie while he waited. Soaped, washed and waxed later I was all done and on my way.....or so I hoped. The DVD player had drained the battery and the car was dead!!
There were many other people there washing their car, so I asked a few if they had jumper cables. One chap found some in the back of his trunk, but refused to help me with a jump. I went from car to car to see if anyone else could help me and no-one was willing. The last man I asked agreed right away and drove his car up to the self service bay to help me. Unfortunately the cables were too short, so he apologized and backed the car up. I then went to ask other people if they could help- still no one was willing to assist. So much for helping a damsel in distress!
I had finally resorted to calling "AAA" when my Knight in shining armor.....Mercedes came back over. He had been watching my fruitless search. He said he was going to walk down the road to see if he could borrow a special boosting gadget from another business. (I'm a girl, I have no idea what it was called)
To cut a long story short he came back and gave me the juice I needed to get going again. I had nothing else with me, so I gave him my business card and asked him to e-mail me with his address so I could send him a thank you. Then he said "You're a REALTOR? My wife and I are getting ready to list our home and buy a new one, can you help us with that?"
I am really glad that no-one else could help me today!
