So earlier this week, I got into a car accident. Not to worry, everyone is absolutely fine. I was driving the kids to school and it was a VERY cold day. As I approached a stop sign, I hit some black ice and began to slide. There was a car already stopped ahead of me and I knew I was going to hit it. So I veered to the right, up a snow bank and hit a tree. Sigh…
Poor Beth cried. She didn’t really know what happened. The good news is that no one was hurt. The damage looked more like a small vendor bender rather than me hitting a tree. I think the snow bank really slowed us down further. However, the guys from the collision shop called back to tell us the damage was close to 5K! Thank goodness for car insurance.
Well, it’s gonna take awhile to fix so for the time being I have a Chevy Lumina. It reminds me a lot of Mon and Dad’s old Hyndai Sonata. And it also reminds me that I don’t like driving cars anymore! I miss my cutie mini SUV. But she’s in good hands and hopefully will come back (close to) new. Figures I get into an accident with my less than 2 year old SUV. Never-the-less, what’s most important is that no on was hurt.
