Can I Erase Yesterday? And This Morning, For That Matter....

Stressful...  I guess that's the right word.  Yesterday I was driving the girls to their babysitter so we could go play pool.  I was turning right at a light.  The lady in front of me turned, I looked left to make sure no one was coming, started going and then BAM!  The lady in front of me had gotten cut off by a guy either coming out or going into the gas station on the immediate right (I'm not sure, it all was sort of fuzzy).  Well, she stopped in time, but I didn't.  Lilly and Jasmine started screaming because they were scared, and my car started steaming and making a pretty bad sound.  Crap. 
So I get out of the car and go check on the lady in front of me.  She was okay.  There was a hole in her rear left bumper, and her tail light was cracked.  Oh how I wish my car had gotten off that easily.  It had to be towed.  This means that I had to take the girls out of the car, get all my stuff out of the car, wait for the tow truck, and wait for Mikey to get to me... which of course he was stuck in traffic.  Not only that but he was in his van, so he had to go home, drop off the van and pick up the truck before coming back to me.  I couldn't leave the car because of the kids being in it.  Of course, right in the middle of it all Lilly had to go to the bathroom.  It was just a mess.  The whole time I was just thankful that everyone involved was okay... and I was imagining dollar bills rolling out of my head.  But, like the insurance agent has said, cars are much easier to mend than people.  Ain't that the truth.  Luckily the most we will have to pay on this is $500.  Plus I get a rental car until my car gets fixed. 

We continued our day as if nothing had happened.  I still went to the pool game and won my game.  Weird that I was so clear headed...  I assume I was in shock.  Once the pool game was over, I realized just how thirsty I was, and the water I drank was the best water ever! 

On the ride home I started getting pretty sore and had horrible visions of not being able to move today.  At one point I even told mikey I was afraid I would let the house go today.  Weird, crazy talk... I know.  When we got home I took a bath... which was extremely relaxing.  This morning I woke up well rested and okay, funnily enough.  But as I was walking out the door to go to my eye appointment, I realized that I have no idea what I did with the key to the truck when Mikey gave it to me yesterday.  So, there goes that appointment. 

Really, everything turned out okay.  It could have been SO much worse.  The girls and I are going to the chiropractor today to get adjusted.... and I'm moving a massage that I was scheduled for up as close as I can to today.  I'm not looking forward to the premium increase on our insurance, but, again... what can I do?  Just keep going I guess.

So, on that note, today i am going to go through mounds of clothes that are too small for lilly and put them in boxes for jasmine.  And I have to pull more stuff out of boxes for jasmine and put away the stuff that is too little for her.  And vacuum, and wash the rugs in the bathrooms.

Another day has started!
