Stockton Trip


Yesterday I left for Stockton first to go get my transcript from San Joaquin Delta College and second to visit my parents. Well, when I left our house in Sac it was sunny and nice. Once I got to the freeway I-99 southbound it started to rain very hard. I can hardly see the lane dividers. I just merged left to the fast lane next to the commuter lane when a black pick up spun on the 4th lane and hit another white pick up in the middle lane that also spun. There are 5 lanes because of the freeway merging together. The traffic coming was fast so they also hit the trucks. I saw them hit the trucks on my rear view mirror. I was shaken because of what I witnessed and I was just few feet away but was very glad I was not part of it. I guess my guardian angel was in the car with me and I thank the Lord for that. I called my hubby right away and told him of the incident and told me to get off the freeway and relax before I get back on. I was fine so I kept on going.

I got to SJDC a little after 4:00pm. Purchased me a parking permit and headed to the administration bldg. It seemed so different. It has been 20 years ago that I was in the campus. I was not sure where to get the transcript so I asked. They said it is on the new building right on Pacific Avenue but they are now closed. I looked on-line before I left Sac and they are suppose to be open till 6:00 but I guess I was mistaken.

Left and headed to Mom & Dad's house. My brother Richard was there fixing my mom's washer. He is pretty handy and he got the washer to work. We`discussed what his plans are and he is thinking of becoming an electrician. I suggested becoming a plumber because a month ago I called a plumber to change the control of the new bathroom and he charged me $180.00. He was at the house less than 30 minutes. It was late so Mom, Dad, Richard, Rosalie, and I went out to dinner. Chinese buffet by the mall. Man I stuffed my face big time. I regretted it later. Left Stockton @ 8:30pm and got home in Alameda an hour later.
