Let Me Tell You All About It Now…

Driving into the inky darkness headed towards Tulia, Texas at 3:00 this morning, nothing prepared me to see a female walking backwards just outside of Wichita Falls looking over her left shoulder at oncoming traffic. I called 911 to report this before someone ran over. I was rattled and disturbed. The things I see driving to prisons are often shocking. From distracted drivers to arguing couples to lot lizards panhandling in truck stop parking lots, it’s hard to surprise me but that young lady did. Was she mentally unstable or on something? I immediately thought about my niece, Stephaney.

Rolling into Loves in Wichita Falls to stop for a bathroom, another lady walked up as I was talking to my husband and said “I need help” so loudly she scared me. I slid a ten through my 1/8 inch opened drivers window. This day is starting out weird and I’m hoping it doesn’t get any weirder as I get back on the highway…
