Very Thankful tonight

Last Christmas eve, I was rear ended and have had months of chronic whiplash pain. Fast forward nearly a year to Thanksgiving eve tonight. I was driving home with my sister from a couple stores and BAM!!! Some giant, huge THING came flying on my windshield! We still don't know what it was but it was huge and heavy, then went flying off. Thank God I wasn't going fast, I was so lucky it didn't smash my windshield.

But my stomach seized as I jammed on the brakes. Just instant seizing of my stomach muscles. I'm sure the person behind me saw me swerve, and I was in shock so going maybe 20 mph. They then flash their lights at me, and honk as they turn off. To think how MEAN some people are, they had no idea what had just happened and thought I was going slow , for fun??? It's a sad world out there to HONK at someone for slowing down for one freaking minute.
I'm very thankful tonight this incident wasn't worse. 🥺

The metropolitan area in which you live has a reputation for impatient drivers!

I'm glad things turned out ok.

When I went to college there, a Massachusetts guy on my dorm floor once described how his father taught him to drive. Lesson number one: "never let the other guy know you see him!"

Ahh yes, never gets old. I'm kidding of course, I would never look at someone of your standing in such a negative light. Never.
