I tell people God gave me three, because I am such a challenge. They have to work three hour shifts.
We just had a tragic occurance....I don't want to call it an "accident", where four teenagers were in a car, driving at least 70 mph down Palm Beach, weaving in and out of traffic, lost control of the car, went off the street, and wrapped the car around a couple of palm trees. Three were killed outright, and the fourth one just died yesterday. The driver was 15, the others were 13 and 14 year olds. Two were brothers. The driver did not have a licence, of course. There were a lot of witnesses.
My husband needed his oiled changed in his car. He was running late to get it there, so I told him to go ahead and leave, and that Taffy and I would be there shortly to pick him up. I finished dressing, got her stuff together, got her into her carrier, got into the car and drove down Palm Beach Avenue, passing that point at about 9:30 a.m. They hit the tree just minutes after that.
I always seem to be just ahead of or just behind these fatal accidents. I drove off the road one time when a woman was coming head on over a hill, and was sound asleep at the wheel. I thought I drove past 11 trees after I dropped 4 feet off the road. When I safely stopped, uninjured, I turned around to see that I had driven THRU them. Yep, I have angels :angel7:
