Freaky Friday!

I was driving home after work when Boom! I hit another car. A kind passer by stopped to check on me and the other motorist involved and called the ambulance. Trainee Paramedics returning from their shift also supported us. The roundabout was closed and the Fire Brigade arrived, cut both our cars in half and we were immobilised and lifted into ambulances. We arrived at hospital where I was scanned and xrayed and once they had ruled out any major problems I was allowed to go home. I hope the other motorist was just as lucky.
I am home now and Graham rescued me by coming to the house to walk Ollie and then took me Supermarket shopping.
I was able to talk to both my kids on the phone to reassure them I am OK.
I have never felt so fortunate to be alive or so grateful to so many people who helped me in so many ways.
My car is no more. Poor Hattie. She was a brilliant car and I really hope I am able to get back on the road with an equally good car as soon as possible.
Experiences like this remind me to focus on what is truly important in life and not to get bogged down by trivialities.
