Really March? Really?

Good Lord.

You know....it was just a few months ago that I was driving the Honda, which we inherited from my sister Judi (technically the boys inherited it but they let us drive it), and I thought to myself, "Man....if anyone ever hits this car I bet I'm going to WAY overreact."

Ha! I know myself so well in some ways. Maybe not in all ways but in SOME ways....I've completely got me down!

Ernie was feeling antsy with the sun shining today, so he decided to get out of the house and drive around and look at some antiques/junk. Someone ran a red light and plowed right into the passenger side of the car. Ernie said the car almost tipped over. Makes me shiver to think about! At least my babies weren't in the car. Ernie has a sore shoulder but the doctor checked it out and thinks it's just muscle strain.

In the scheme of things it is, of course, no big deal. The car will get fixed, Ernie will heal.....it just makes me want to gather my boys close and hold them. And it makes me want to apologize to Judi. Sorry Judi. In one of the funniest moments my sister Debbie (who as it turns out used to know Mary Gauthier when she had her restaurant in Boston...who knew!!!!) said to me via a facebook message, "As to the car--OF COURSE you feel bad--it's part of Judi. I'd say she wouldn't care but we both know that's not true!!!!!!!!" That made me laugh so hard...and made me feel better. Yeah, she'd be PISSED!!

Love you Judi.....love you Debbie.....love you dented Honda.....
