Good afternoon.
The good: For those who believe the seasons starts the day after Thanksgiving (and if you polled America, I bet that would be the date getting the most votes), it is 100 days away. Yes Black Friday is approaching.
The bad: Last night I wrecked my wife's car. Wasn't looking and pulled out in front of somebody. Our 14 month foster baby missed taking the brunt of the impact by about 6 inches. Instead the rear tire absorbed most of the hit. Amazing how hard a hit it was and, other than the wheel well, how little the car is messed up. Baby, me and the other driver were all checked out on the scene and everybody is fine. Other driver was able to drive away with only front bumper damage. I had to get towed because the whole wheel and struts are mangled but the frame is still straight and every door and the trunk open and close just fine. Maybe the bill will not be too bad.
Baby screamed her head off for the 1st minute after the collision and I don't wish that kind of fear of the unknown on any parent. And she is just our foster child, but we think of her as our own even though it is likely she will be leaving us to go back to her parents in a few months (bad situation). But, again, she is just fine and the soreness in my ribs and arm from the side airbag went away overnight.
