Elyse!
Every now and then I get a bit distracted or tense at the wheel, because I'm in a hurry, but I quickly remember to chill out. This isn't a game anymore! It's life, and it's precious! As we well know!

Hair raising experiences do cause us to 'take it all a little slower' and mosey along.
and I'm so glad you do - WOW ~ Elyse

I'm glad you lived through the accident and no one got killed. The crazy things we do when we are young!

You sure had a lot of exciting moments as a youngster.

Meee, too! It was a shock to go back to the towing yard and view the crushed car. The passenger side was totally flattened.

You may not ever want to, after reading that post! My cousin doesn't drive either. She lives in New York and the Transit system does it for her, so why bother.

Wow! Makes me think of my little 16-year-old daughter driving the
highways and byways, how she came back with mud all over my car where she had to drive in the ditch "to avoid a deer," was the story I got at the time, and how I was always, always awake when she got home, although she may not have known it. Sometimes, if we're lucky, we get away with being stupid, once. I think my heart rate went way up reading this one, Darson! I'm so glad you made it through that and lived to tell the tale!

God truly works in myterious ways, Darson. You were given a miracle that night, and I'm glad you saw it. I've never been able to drive, and I'm actually glad I can't.
