Car Accident

Last Tuesday, I was driving to work. Listening to my radio, ready to get gas and start my day at work. As I was on a 2 lane hwy I was thinking "how weird is it that one second I'm driving without a care in the world and the next second you could be in a car accident." Not 2 minutes later I got hit. Seriously. Weirdest thing ever.

I was in the left turn lane yielding to oncoming traffic. As I was turning into my turn the lady that hit me was at a stop sign at the street I was trying to get to and didn't see me and went. Crash! I was hit on my side and then on the side where Nolan would have been sitting if we was with me. Thank GOD he wasn't! Though I don't think he would have been hurt either, he would have been scared to death!

Luckily, everything turned out ok. The lady took full responsibility and my car is fixable almost $6,000 later! I have to have a rental car for two weeks which has been a bit of a pain and I had to get new car seats but not having anyone hurt is by far the biggest thing for us to be Thankful for. As you can see by the picture below (which doesn't do justice of the damage) if the lady that hit me would have been a larger vehicle she would have hit me way higher up and possibly causing way more damage and possibly injury. We are so very thankful that she was in a tiny car and I was in a big vehicle!
