So Shaken Up!!!
Today was a horrible day. I took a vacation day off work for a funeral. I couldn't get funeral leave, because it wasn't a very close relative. Well yesterday at the visitation, I was pretty upset. I decided I just couldn't go to the funeral today. It was too much for me. They understood. So I was upset and reliving Maggie memories anyway.
Around 3pm, Mikey asked if a friend could come over. I told him that would be okay. We drove down into town to pick him up. On the way back to the apartment, I was driving through an intersection, with the right of way. A lady coming from the other way made a left turn right into my Blazer. There just wasn't enough time or room to get out of the way.
I couldn't get out my door, it was too smashed in. I called 911 from my cell phone, then crawled out the passenger side door to check on the boys. They were both in the back seat and we were all wearing belts. No one felt hurt. I was livid. I went across to the other car to see if they had a cell phone to contact someone, which they did, and asked if they were hurt. They said they weren't. I went back to my car and just stayed there, before I had a fit.
The sheriff and ambulance got there. The sheriff took information for a report. The emergency people said my Blazer was not safely drivable home. Too much frame damage. I drove in the ambulance with the boys. Both checked out fine at the ER. They're okay. Relief.
Now the adrenaline is wearing off. I feel so freaked out! Mike met us there at the ER, and drove us home. I was so panicy. I just can't believe this. I think I feel more upset right now than I did in February. Oddly enough, because it's not as tragic. No one needs me right now, I have the luxuery of not being strong.

Thank goodness you all were ok. I know when something happens so soon after you have suffered a loss it sometimes is more draining than the actual tragedy that first happened. I wish for you peace and comfort in the next few days. May you get some of God's wonderful comfort and may you feel his arms surrounding you. Let HIm be strong for you!

I can eat as much as I want...I just don't want much.
I'm ashamed of what I did for a Klondike bar...
