well…if you don’t know, last saturday i somehow managed to total my car, and when say total i mean…even i knew it was totaled. i was driving home from work around 4:30pm i had been stopped at a train and was almost home on old military road. and then BAM before i knew what was really happening i was slamming into a car. i was going around 35-40 mph and he was pretty much stopped, it was one of those rare instances where you look away at just the wrong moment…and he slammed on his brakes to keep from hitting a car that decided to turn last minuted, and so when i looked up he was almost stopped and i was still going. both of my airbags deployed and i have never been quite so flustered..they hit me so hard and all this dust flew everywhere and it was like smoke, burning my eyes but i was afraid to move for a second before i had assessed how bad i was hit/hurt. but i was fine, sore for a few days and a small scratch/scrape along my arm. the guy in front of me was perfectly ok and we both walked away. my officer’s name was j.lucky…:)
so all that being said…they did call my car a total loss, and cut me a check for it. so jason and i have spent the last week looking, and looking, and looking for a car. it is not as much fun as it used to be. we even went to dallas for a couple of days, they have a lot more to choose from and really helped us narrow down exactly what we wanted. then finally after some “debating” over the price we came back to arkansas and bought this gorgeous toyota rav4 v6 4×4 in black with grey leather interior…she is a gorgeous piece of machinery. we feel very blessed that the lord kept me safe, and we received a nice settlement for the car and were able to find something that both jason and i both fell in love with…and since all cars must have a name…i named her black beauty.
