it had been a long week, a really long week... i just wanted it to be over already and it was just dragging on. against my wishes of wanting to just relax at home before work, i went with my family to pymatuning deer park for the day and wore myself out falling in love with all the animals there... i loved it, but i knew it would be a LONG night at work. i got in to work and it went about as expected, i did get to work with one of my favorite people that i hadn't got to in a while so that was nice, but didnt change how long the night still was
when i was finally leaving i made my way home on the freeway and looked away for half a second to look back up to see the guardrail coming at me from around the bend, i just barely hit the rumblestrip and started to turn back into my lane... i must have overcorrected, but i think there must have also been another factor involved- some loose gravel, oil, or maybe just moisture on the recently paved road, and suddenly my car spun out of control... i did a full 180 and as i did i saw the cement median coming at me (if you didnt know i had just totalled my 1st car in december when someone pulled out in front of me... it really messed up the car, but i was fine) seeing that median i figured this would for sure be one of my last breaths cuz this was REAL bad... the front of my car was crushed against the median and i spun a bit more enough for the right rear corner to also smash into the median... the airbags went off, and antifreeze spilled onto the radiator, so there was some smoke and a terrible smell (much like my other accident)... i turned the car off and had to kick at the door to get it open to get out.. a couple other drivers had pulled over and came running to me to see if i was okay... i told them i was fine and they told me to grab my purse and phone and get off the road... I WAS NOT TEXTING, and could not seem to find my phone so i borrowed one of their phones to call mine, and it had apparently flown across my car hit the passenger door and slid down next to the seat... the three of us ran to safety across the road and the man who let me use his phone let me sit in his car with his wife as we waited for the emergency vehicles that he had already called to get there... an ambulance showed up which i declined because i was miraculously not injured! the cop that showed up did not even ask to see my liscence, or for my full name, he just talked to me and said "hope you have a better night hun" the best part of it all was a good friend of mine saving me from a horrid tow bill... IOU!!!
God obviously isn't done with me yet cuz i honestly believe i should have died in this one... i came out of it with no more than a bruise from the seatbelt and a sore neck... THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone involved in anyway... i am really blessed :)
