("Sooo I had a car setting in the yard all weekend and could not drive it. All my BIG plans were gone.
Know what??? I survived.")
Life can write a different story: Maybe you wouldn't be here today if you had gone ahead with your big plans.
Back in '85 I worked midnights, on leaving, one of the guys had left his lights on, so I went back inside to find him and tell him. It took about 5 minutes, being it was Friday I was heading North with my dog. I got about 20 miles outside Toronto, a tractor with a flat bed trailer came down the on ramp, he must have thought he had a full size covered trailer because he moved over as to miss the lower end of the bridge. I couldn't move over or do anything except brake. As I braked I looked in my mirror there was a huge cube van in my mirror, as I saw it bang, I was going backwards then sideways and over the guardrail the car went about 60-70' into the Median. The car was a little Honda hatchback not much left worth saving.
Moral of this story: If I hadn't gone back in the shop to find the guy . . . No accident.
If I didn't have my seat belt on, well I might not be typing this.
If I hadn't taken out the 2- motors w/gear boxes the night before, well I might not be typing this.
Well it could have been worse (bigger Truck), but the dog and I survived, neck still hurts. Dog lived to be 17.
Oh the Insurance Co. tried to make a big deal out of it, said I was driving the wrong way.
