Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Trying to keep my spirits up, but the day started miserably. It is my 20th anniversary and I love DH, so that part is cool.
First off, the kid is fine. My son totaled his car last night. He says the wheels locked. Adults viewing the situation think he was going too fast around the corner and slammed on his brakes causing the wheels to lock. Anyway, straight off the intersection taking out the pole for the walk sign, took down a tree or two. Every side of the car is crashed. Even the trunk has a gash in it from the sign falling. Air bags deployed and he was belted. He is sore and of course devastated.
I'm up because I have to get the other kid off to school then I am going to try and get some more sleep. Kids.
Oh God, Laura. May the rest of your day be much, much better, and that First Kid will get his lesson from it, and will be able to pay alone for the damage he caused to the car.
Ugh, Laura, glad he is okay. I had a series of accidents as a teenager that weren't awful but really scared me. I hope everyone can regain a sense f calm
Laura, wow, how scary for you! I'll join in the thankfulness that he was uninjured.
Hey, you have a kid who wears his seatbelt! When you aren't there to make him.
{{{Laura}}} How scary! I am glad that he is ok physically.
Laura! Heaven's sake. BTW,thank you for leading with "the kid is fine."
Yikes, I'm glad he's ok, car accidents are scary.
Yikes, Laura! Poor kiddo! I'm glad he's ok!! Silly boy.
This is very silly and quite dumb, but Joe just sent off our wicker furniture with the buyer from Craigs List and collected the asking price and I'm starting to feel like there might be a pinprick of light at the end of a very long tunnel. I was freaking out last night about the prospect of packing, but I think it just might turn out to be ok. Maybe.
