Today.

Yesterday I thought I would be OK, this morning I thought I would be ok, but half way there, I thought I might not be ok, but there was no turning back, I was now committed, the big question to me would be, would I be OK coming back, or would I be too late.

I did say to myself, why didn’t I yesterday, I would only have been five minutes out of my time and now it could cost be dear.

I didn’t have my bank card with me, I’d put £5 in my handbag which was more than enough for dinner in the reduced section.

Now the money would not be for dinner but for something even more important.

The pressing question would I make it home? I was SO annoyed with myself, I could have saved myself a lot of stress, if I’d only done it yesterday.

But my stress levels were up to eleven, with ten really been the maximum. I had no one else to blame but myself.

This is the closest I’ve ever been. I knew I shouldn’t drive faster, but that’s the natural thing to do, I’d recently watched Top Gear when they did a challenge, and going fast was bad going slow was very good, but I tried not to panic, for I knew if the worst thing was to happen, I at least knew I had break down cover.

I looked on my app on my mobile to see where I could find the nearest, but there was none near me, so I drove to the known direction for home.

I watched the little item, it seemed too close, but I was still OK, I knew soon a shop would be on my left on the other side of the dual carriageway, but I also knew the shop a mile up the road I’d be able to use my shop card to collect points.

So, driving past the shop on my left I drove to the shop near my home where I would be able to buy there and get my important shop points.

I wasn’t there yet, was nervous at the traffic light, each one seems to stop me. I admit I did pray, “Please God help me.” I was my fault really that I was in this predicament.

The shop, my destination was just around the corner after these last traffic lights. Would I make it? This had never ever happened to me before; I hope it couldn’t be today that it happened.

I arrived safely at the shop. Phew I was able to put my little amount in with my £5 it was enough, I now had diesel!

Phew!
