Welcome to My World

Hi, Kids. For those of you who follow me on twitter you've probably already heard about yesterday's events. Yes, that image up above was how I spent my Sunday. I know, awesome. At approximately 4:30 pm, I was stopped at a stoplight when a Ford Bronco decided to plow into me at about 45 mph (give or take). I drove through the same intersection earlier today and nary a skid mark where our cars collided so it would appear that he made no effort to brake whatsoever. The guy who hit me must have had really important stuff to take care of because he couldn't be bothered sticking around! I KNOW! Even MORE awesome! Luckily, I wasn't sent careening out into the oncoming traffic or things probably would have been *much* worse.

I've been riding that typical emotional roller-coaster all last night and today... what if I'd just done this or not done that, or moved over to the next lane like I thought about, what if something had happened to the dog, how are we going to afford another car payment, thank God I'm okay, thank God it wasn't worse, is how I feel going to get worse, could this become something worse, you'll be fine, it's gonna be okay, God why, how will I ever drive again, of course I'll drive again, just move through this, move through this. And on, and on, and on.

So now I'm sore, popping Ibuprofen, and icing various parts down but, for the moment [insert knocking on wood], I'm hoping nothing worse 'pops' up and that I can say "I'm fine" with some degree of certainty in the coming days. I'll be spending lots of time talking with insurance agencies, police, doctors, etc. in the days to come so, yeah again, I'll be low on the blogging scene. But, as always will try to check in on ya's and see how you're doing without me.

Say a prayer or twelve (or more) for me will ya', Kids? Thanks.
