ch. 1

  After dropping my oldest off at his school. I was off to drop my youngest two off at their  grandma's. Then I would be off to the library to apply for more pain in the ass jobs that would laugh me off.'Maybe I should go and dye my hair pink' I thought. 

Pulling up to the big blue house that belongs to their grandparents. (That I wish was mine) The white front door opened as I pulled up. Getting out of the piece of shit pt cruizer. Opening the backdoors as their grandma walked up to the car. I unbuckled the stupidly hard carseats. Putting the baby on my left hip and holding the toddlers hand, I walked them up to the curb. She started the casual conversation that annoyed me. Taking the children, she walked away. 

I kept waving goodbye to them as they entered the house.Jumping into the car. Taking a couple of relaxing breaths to calm the buzzing in my head. I started the car and headed to the library. 

*********

Driving down the road passing the 7-11 on my left. Heading towards the last light before the turn to the library. Out of gaddang nowhere came a black dog. A very big wolf like dog.Hitting the brakes as hard as possible, turning the wheel to the right. To keep from hitting the dog/wolf. Failing horribly as usually. Hears the horrible sound of something hitting the side of the car. Cringing from the horror that was filling me. The car finale stopped.

             As soon as my heart settled down enough to move. Shakingly getting out of the car. I went over to check on the wolf/dog. There was no blood but it was not moving . So I tried to pick it up but was unable when some guy stopped while others drove past. It took both of us to lift the overly heavy dog/wolf into the passenger side of the car. Thanking the man as the buzzing in my head grew louder. I got back into the car and looked up where the closest animal hospital was. Cars drove by honking at me. Letting the gps guide me to the animal hospital.
