Riding along in my automobile…….CRANK UP THE TUNES!!

I’m not sure why, other than I’m the crazy one, but I rode shotgun with our teenage drivers way more than Hubs ever did. My neighbor recently mentioned she always hears somebody “bumpin” when they come down our street. I slyly grinned and confessed. More times than not when I’m in the car you can bet I got the tunes cranked! Music calms me, lifts me and gets me where I’m going quicker. Our teenage driver’s were no different they loved to crank the radio and then I’d turn it down otherwise, they couldn’t hear me scream! I was and still am the more calmer driver, so that’s why I was in the passenger seat. Who knew this little “tantrum tootsie” could have the patience needed that allowed their kids to learn to drive. Oh, I threw a couple fake breaks in there and I put my hand on the dash, and possible mumbled words that resembled those of a sailor but our kids can drive! Once or twice I even put my arm out across the driver as if that’s gonna save them from a crash!

In all reality, in our empty nest I’m probably not the safest driver, but I am the calmest. Entering the vehicle with my man at the wheel is like entering a war zone. We have ear breaking noises, quick maneuvers through gritted teeth and the death stare, all the while Metallica blasts threw the speakers. And this is the man I plan to retire with in a motorhome to see the country. Umm, I need to hire a chauffer.

How’s your driving?!

Keep the tunes cranked up and the rage down!
