Hello my friends it's me again.  Boy, give me two weeks off and I come back with a vengeance.  I guess the stories and thoughts were all bundled up and tucked somewhere beneath the fog in my brain and now with sunny skies ahead the thoughts can see their way out.  I actually drove to the lake today.  Tedious ride all the way but made it safely with my boy as co-pilot.  First long drive and a new car to boot, I think I faired quite well.  A lot to take in but I took that deep breath and did it.  The car is a dream, so pretty, rides great, and it's BIG!  Now as you know we had a Mini Cooper , needless to say is even smaller after the accident, totaled!  All smashed up!  I know you are thinking that is why we got a bigger car, because of the accident.  But as you know and can see that little Mini Cooper kept up safe,. Kept my son and I safe!  We walked out of that car that day.  So NO we didn't get a bigger car because of the accident with the Mini, we wanted this car and love all the room it has.  And if we are ever in another accident we hope this car will keep us safe as well.  Some say we were lucky, and as you all know  - I got a thing about luck!  Not a big believer in it.  Am I grateful to be alive? YES!  Am I thankful my son wasn't hurt badly? YES!  Were we lucky? No more than each day that I can wake up with a family that loves me and friends that go out of their way to help us.  We are blessed,  not lucky.  LD said to me after the accident, "Mom, we need a car with GPS because if we had it the day of the accident I wouldn't have had to give you directions and we would have not had the accident because I told you to go that way.  I held his hand and told him that the accident was not our fault ? We didn't do anything wrong!  Were we unlucky that day??? NO!  We are here because we need to be.  We have more to do in this world.  Oh sure it's just us, but maybe, just maybe we can make a difference that can change someone or something for the better.  Is this not our destiny, our blessing from above, the power inside to be the best we can be.  We just need to do it!  So everyday since the accident, I say, I am alive, not only my earthly shell but my soul ? So lets LIVE, get going, get out there and for goodness sake, have a great time doin' it!!!  Thanks for listening and as always, I wish you peace and joy in your life.
