Stuck!

I ventured out to Wal-Mart in the ice and snow to get some groceries this afternoon while Kevin was home with the boys. I got stuck in the snow and had to rely on the kindness of strangers to help me out. But it's not what you're thinking. I didn't get my CAR stuck, I got my GROCERY CART stuck! The snow hadn't been shoveled in the parking lot, and there were a few inches of chunky ice and snow all over. I had my cart very overloaded, and I couldn't push it through the parking lot! I tried and tried - I pushed and pulled (while slipping all over the ice) - but I couldn't move it more than a couple of inches before getting stuck again. I must have been quite a sight. A big burly man came and practically lifted my cart using only the effort in his pinky finger and brought it to my car. I'm so thankful for his kindness and SO EMBARRASSED by my wimpiness! (My neck still hurts from straining so hard :-))
