adventure with Bill

Last summer my refrigerator died....I had resuscitated it twice  before, with my vacuum cleaner performing CPR magic as it sucked out all the dust and dog hair in the filter......but, alas this time it was DEAD!!!!
We went to an appliance store five minutes before closing..we decided to meet there as he was bringing a van to haul our new fridge and I needed to be somewhere after. Well, Bill pulled into the parking lot and the van he was driving died. Not in a parking spot, but in front of the store...
We went in and looked around, but the store was closing, so he decided he would come by first thing in the morning to fix the van (the girl's hated that van. it.was creepy with it's curtain to block off views of tools). Bill thought he would come first thing in the morning...but first he had to open his shop. By the time he had picked me up I was really getting an uneasy feeling.
The President was coming to town and had a huge motorcade going right by the store we were going to. When we got to the store his van was still there so Bill hopped in and got it started and pulled into a parking spot. When we walked in all these store employees came up to Bill and were asking about the van. Bill explained what had happened and the employees started showing Bill a white van across the parking lot. In the van were some secret service guys who earlier had been combing through Bill's van...it was pretty suspicious looking I must agree!
They were all laughing about it, and were daring Bill to run up to the van, but we were on our mission... so we proceeded to hunt for our new refrigerator...after awhile, I realized we were being followed. That was a little unnerving!
Well, we found our fridge and were about to leave to go to a warehouse to pick it up...when the salespeople told Bill he should wait, as the Presidential motorcade was about to pass....AND the secret service van still had us under surveillance! Bill just responded, "I need to get back to work"...I thought "I'm sure glad we drove separately"!!!!
The good news in this story is that the warehouse was in the opposite direction as the motorcade...so we got out of there with no further incident! WHEW!!! That man made my heart beat faster....just NOT for the right romantic reason this time!!
When we got home with the fridge it was a whole new adventure with Bill having to remove the whole door and doorframe to get it in!
The good news is that it is now in and fits beautifully!!!!
Life sure is an adventure...even in the simple things!   John 10:10 says That" God has given us life and that more abundantly."...
