Recently, I found myself in a familiar place. It was the drive through window of the lending institution where my home mortgage is housed. I had rushed over to the bank after spending most of the prime time of my morning in the dental chair getting my teeth cleaned. Have you noticed how the dentist always does the extra stuff when you are in a hurry? They said I needed X-Rays because mine had gotten out of date. It just seems like everytime I turn around, somebody wants to do an X-Ray. I allowed them to do their thing, but every minute I sat in the dental chair, I was thinking of something else I needed to be doing. I rushed off after the dentist to pay my house payment. Just when I felt like my day was going crazy, something new and different comes before our eyes.
I watched as the people to my right went through the drive through lane. They took out the plastic container and sent their banking items through the suction device over to the bank. I can only remember the day that I was in such a lane and something strange happened to me. The plastic container didn't get enough suction and got stuck somewhere between the drive through and the banking window. What do you do? It was a new one for the bank as well. They assured me they would deal with it and we would talk later. That was a nervous answer, but what do you do? Meanwhile, back at the drive through watching the people next to me, they make a big mistake. When getting the plastic container out of the slot and getting their banking papers out of the container, they dropped the container out of the vehicle and it went rolling all underneath their vehicle. The driver couldn't get out because they were stuck. They had too much breakfast and couldn't fit out the door. The passenger gets out and starts going underneath the car in search of the missing plastic container. It's interesting to note the crazy stuff that goes on with other people as well as the daily complications we face.
I remember watching someone entering the car wash a few years ago, who wanted to take the radio antenna off his car. The only problem was he waited until he was in the middle of the wash to roll down his window, get out of the car, and then get totally soaked. This man got a bath that day along with his car. I don't think the car wash charged extra!!
It's the crazy things in life that add some spice to our day. Life is always full of new and different stuff. We can get overwhelmed or just celebrate a crazy day that God has allowed us to live. We can share our craziness in life and laugh together!
