Well this morning I got my son on the bus, and wanted to get my day going. Had to stop by hubby's work, so he could put my new stickers in the windshield for me, had to go get my hair done, go grocery shopping, and stop and see my In-Laws to check on my FIL.
So I get in my car and head to hubbys work, which is about 5 mins away. The way to hubbys work, is all down hill (we live on a mountain), as I get close to the bottom, (which at the bottom is a set of train tracks, a stop light and a 4 lane highway) I have a car stopped at a stop ligh in front of me, so I step on my brakes, and my foot goes to the floor!!!!:eek: I was dumfounded, so I step on the breaks again, but still nothing! I have to swerve around the car at the light, and put the Emergency break on! Only I still dont stop, i just low down! I make it over the Railroad tracks but am still moving towards the 4 lane highway! Finally just as I am gonna run onto the Highway, the car slows down to a cral, so I slam the car in park, and the car stops. I am shaking like a leaf! My nerves are frazzled! The light turns Green, so I slowly drive the car across the highway, and slowly head to hubbys work, which is only 1/4 mile away. I pull into hubbys work, and have to slam the car in park again. I ran inside and grab hubby, in tears, my whole body shaking. so he looks at the car, and my Break lines Busted, there was break fluid everywhere!
Hubby was mad that I continued to drive to his work,a nd not just pull the car over and call him. But was thankfull that I was okay!
So needless to say I took the truck, and left hubby with the car! I definitely needed to get my hair done!!:rolleyes:
What A Day!!!!!:eek:
