Today we were supposed to go to Columbia, SC for a doctor's appointment for my husband for a biopsy. He had already started on his course of antibiotics and we were more than ready to get on with this process. Waiting and not knowing exactly what I'm dealing with has never been a strong suit for me.
We were ready to leave for the two-hour trip, got in the car . . . and, the car wouldn't start. We couldn't even get it to move from park into neutral. Not only that, but last night, we had pulled it around back to unload from shopping and left it there, blocking our other vehicle, my husband's truck. We have a very narrow driveway around the side of the house that has a steep drop-off to the meadow, so there was no way to get the truck out.
Thank goodness for AAA, but we knew they couldn't arrive in time for us to get on the road and make our appointment. Bob called the doctor's office and they said if we were going to be late, we would need to reschedule it. Now, we'll have to wait three more weeks for the biopsy and a week beyond that to sit down with the doctor for follow-up.
AAA arrived in a big shiny red truck 
in about 30 minutes which was very prompt. We're at least that far from any wrecker service. We will NEVER cancel our AAA membership.
We'll also try to remember to never leave the car blocking the truck or vice-versa.
But the more important lesson today was the not so subtle reminder that no matter how much we plan and organize, we are often not in control of what happens in the hours of our days. All we can control is our attitude. Tonight, I'm grateful that the car was easily fixed by late afternoon with a new battery and some other parts. And, I am pleased that both of us fairly easily accepted the inevitable . . . more waiting!
CAIRO — Several thousand women demanding the end of military rule marched through downtown Cairo on Tuesday evening in an extraordinary expression of anger over images of soldiers beating, stripping and kicking female demonstrators in Tahrir Square.
