the universe will humble you in a minute’s notice

not 5 minutes after I posted my last note about selling my wife’s car, she calls me, hysterical, because she flooded out our only remaining car in the storm

she managed to pull it into someone’s driveway and got stranded there

I ended up taking a $50 Uber back home, which took 45 minutes. 
Once home, I changed clothes, grabbed a headlamp and rain jacket, then rode my son’s mountain bike through 2-3 miles of floodwaters to meet up with my wife

we left the car in the guy’s driveway (with his permission) and walked our asses home, through the flood and rain 

STAY HUMBLE
