Oye! It's been a while since I've come by here. ^^' I may not have posted each day, but I've tried to make some rounds to people's sites.
Deja Vu
Yesterday was a normal day. Mondays I work at the coal company. It was a rather boring day, but some fellow gave me an assignment for me to do for him. It was just making 5 binders for work instructions. ... It took me ALL day!! How does that happen... Lol. *shrugs* It did break up the monotony. ^^
I went home after work to wolf down some grub before I would head out to the work project. So, after a nice meal of carbs (^^), I drove down to the property. I got there a bit late but was able to get a job, helping to hang air ducts. Phooey! Those are big babies. ^^ But 50 feet of the air ducts were hung. *big smile*
We worked late that night, probably until 11:00 p.m. or so. Let's just say I was ready to head home. ^^ It was a bit rainy as well, spitting one moment and pouring another. The highway wasn't really heavy with traffic, which was nice. However, this is where my deja vu comes to play.
At a point on the way home, there was a white object in the road. I couldn't tell what it was because it was dark and starting to pour some more. I quickly came upon it and realized it was a
refrigerator!! Instincts told me to avoid the objects, so I tried, which made me swerve from side to side! It was soo weird: I felt like I was in slow motion. I could see everything that was happening, including the light pole I was heading for. O_O The only thing I could think at that time was, "Am I going to hit it?!"
CRASH
I hit the pole and came to a sudden stop. I was sooo freaked! Lol. So, in short, I got into another accident. *shakes head* You know what irked me the most? I didn't even have the car for one whole year yet!! >_<
I am fine. I managed to come out without a scratch or bruise! Thank the Lord!! ^^ Shortly thereafter, a few people from my church came and stopped by. There was a nurse who saw the whole thing from her rear view mirror. She told me, "I saw that refrigerator and said to myself, 'I hope no one gets into an accident!' And no sooner had I said that, there you were!" ^^' Oops. *smiles* The lady nurse let me use her phone since I didn't have mind on hand. I called my dad, and he and my mom (whoa! She's still all rickety from her surgery) came soon.
Now I'm at a stand still. My mom is letting me use her car. My dad and I will start looking for another one soon. *sighs* I really don't want to buy another one. I'm a college kid for pity's sake! Lol.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I'm alive and well though my spirit's a bit shaken. I thank God for keeping me safe! I swear that that incident could have been a whole lot worse! But I won't dwell upon the "What If."
See you all later. Oh, and thanks for your kind, comforting words concerning that whole other incident last Sunday. *shakes head* I think I'm over that. Lol. Bye and I hope to visit some of you all soon! ^^
I'm Alive!!
