Last week and why it sucked

You know those days when you can just tell that something is going to go wrong, you just have an ominous feeling.

Last Tuesday I did not feel that way.

In fact I was thinking it was going to be a pretty good day

The house was clean, laundry getting done and happy children playing together

Then Ryan called........

He had been in a car accident!! What!? The guy who I always tell everyone "if there was ever someone to drive an ambulance or a car full of children it's Ryan, he's the best driver I've ever known!" So this came as quite a shock to me.

He said he was okay, but that the car was in really bad shape and that I needed to come and get him.

He told me that I as I drove on the other side of the freeway I would be able to see him and his car in the middle of the road in a construction zone.

Sure enough, there was traffic backed up for miles

and then THIS!

Poor guy, Ryan was pretty shook up

I'm just so glad he was okay!

I guess there was a lot of traffic on the freeway and he was worried about a big semi truck swaying next to him, while watching that semi he didn't notice the two cars in front of him breaking hard due to another semi swerving and breaking in front of them.

Ryan tried breaking and in an effort to not cause an accident hit the cement barrier to his left before unavoidably hitting the back of the two cars in front of him.

Anyways, it was quite the mess and took quite a while to get everything worked out there at the scene and then at home on the phone with the insurance company

Mostly I'm just happy that he was okay, along with the other two drivers

The day after the accident Ryan and I went to go pick up his rental and THIS is what they had for him! Heheheheheheheehehe! We got a good laugh about it and kindly asked when they would have something else available!

Ella sure liked it though! She and Jack called it the buggy bug and loved driving around town in it

Thankfully the next day they had something a little more suited for Ryan

What a week!! Good thing I was going on vacation just a few days later!
