ticket

 I expected another ordinance violence yellow ticket when I looked out the window and saw this scene. The Crown Vic was parked overnight on the street and that was against our village rules!  Drat, we had already been ticketed a couple of days ago for parking across the sidewalk ($30).  And yesterday, I had spent a couple of hours obsessing over a non-invite.  And now, THIS.  


The yelling began. Then the blaming. The pity-party celebration  came next.  How much was this gonna cost us??!

But the Lord was faithful. There was no ticket.  The cops must have been busy elsewhere.  Or it was the same cop who gave us the previous ticket, and he/she felt sorry for us.  Whatever.  The Lord gave to us even in our sleep.  He rebuked the devourer of our funds.  We learned our lesson, and it didn't cost us more than was necessary.  Whew!
