I sat in that library almost until closing. But tonight I'm going dancing with my friends! FINALLY!! I've been dying to go dancing and when I was healed enough that I could, I didn't have time! Since the exam isn't til Tuesday, I am allowing myself one night of fun. But I'll be studying until we go (which won't be for a few hours).

My 17 yr old daughter was involved in a car accident Thursday night.

God works in his own ways.

She drives a little car. She was driving behind a big ole' pick up truck. They were traveling southbound on a six lane road & suddenly a big towncar was traveling north in their lane. The truck slammed on his brakes -- my daughter seeing the break lights, I believe did not understand he was SLAMMING his breaks -- she ended up sliding under his back-end.

The car ended up with damage....but I truly believe God put that big ole' pickup truck in front of her on that road.

Of course, the wrong way car swerved avoiding the pick up & left the scene.

The guy she rear-ended was a "Dad" & took care of her until we arrived & then made it clear to the police how the accident happened.

The police officer didn't even site my daughter due to the situation that caused the accident.

I could have been spending the last few days in a hospital room. I am so overwhelmed with Thankfulness!!

^^^Angels watching out for her.

My good deed seems to pale in comparison.

We were standing in line at the theatre concession stand. 2 teen girls were trying to figure out how to stretch their money to get a small popcorn and small drink ($10.50!!). So, I turned and said "Happy Valentine's Day" and gave them $5. Made us all happy.

(This Means War! was awesome! Hubby said it wasn't a chick flick, it wan an action movie!)

Apparently taking a week of vacation (scheduled a month in advance AND while there was too-much-to-explain going on with my family) after 2 years means I have no work ethic.
Bless that co-worker's heart when I come back on Monday.

I got a burn during my nap. It's not bad but my computer charger got so hot that it burned me when my calf touched it. I woke up yelping like a puppy. It was too hot to even hold in my fingers while I unplugged it (I was trying to unplug the blocky part as well as the part in the outlet). So weird and a rude awakening to boot!

it's weird seeing family after that long, but definitely goes smoother when there are activities. i'm sure it'll all work out fine. they'll have a great visit, yall will have a great time together, your paperwork will be finished, the red wings will get a home win, and my preds will get enough points and wins to lead our division. it's a win-win-win-win-win situation.
That would truly be awesome. Truly. I'm 3 pages into the 10 page paper, but I think it will start to go faster soon. I do have most of the resource materials pulled together that I'll need. I have the outline for the paper. That's usually the longest part.

Hubby found the tag receipt folded up on the garage floor.

Next year we WILL do online renewals! (Didn't this year b/c I didn't want a $35 special tag.)
