It's mid February 2020. The time crunch is on. The week before I picked a 6 and a half ft Santa from someone's trash, he folded up. I put him in the truck's bed. A couple days later it started to rain, so I put Santa inside my extended cab. Now it was serving as a headliner inside my cabin.
I have to go to two places in a short period of time. The first place was a warehouse for metal goods, 20 miles away. The second was 35 minutes away from my house. Two and a half hrs to get it done. Boy that is cutting it close. I'm off, leave home heading for metal yard. Two minutes out I see Santa smiling from the back window, he's blocking more than half my window. Oh no! Make a quick decision turn back home. Take Santa and put him in my big shed. Get back in truck turn key....click click.....won't start. Just great! Jump in my smaller truck and head to the metal yard. I'm now 10 mins behind. The smaller truck made it more tricky carrying the metal rods, had to travel slow because they would bang on top of truck's cab. They were tied down good. But they still oould bounce on top of my truck. Had to take it easy getting back to house, losing more time. Make it home and dropped off metal. I have 20 min to get to my second destination. It takes 35 min to get there. Got there 10 mins late.
Thank's to Santa, I got there at all. If I didn't turn back to house to drop Santa I would have got stuck at the metal yard, where the truck would not have started. I would have been screwed big time.
But spirit new all this ahead of time. The truck's problem was known by spirit and it instituted steps to overcome it. Spirit knew I was going to grab Santa from the trash and used that action for my greater good. Thank you spirit.
