Wishing you courage

All I can do is laugh at myself

Um...

Last night in group therapy my friends stressed that even though I don't have answers for why so many things have been happening in my life that I find disagreeable, I am exactly where I need to be right now. This is kind of difficult for me but I'm trying it out. Perhaps the tiny car, sized for a single girl, is representative of what I need to be focusing on - my own mental and physical health.

So, I start to come to terms with the car that I didn't want. Now this is where things become absurd. Guess who drove into other cars this evening. I am not even kidding! I caused a 3 car accident tonight! My first accident, beyond bumping into another car when backing up in a parking lot, that was my fault. This comes two days after buying the car and the day after I added the car to my insurance.

Clearly I still need to get used to driving the car but that will have to happen after it gets repaired.

I am in very good spirits though. All that therapy seems to be paying off!

Sometimes, life just likes to heap it on, eh? Glad it was only the car that got dinged up

Hey, at least it happened the day AFTER you added it to your insurance, not the day BEFORE. God, life is nuts sometimes. Glad you're ok.

Hi Anna,
Just wanted to say I've been thinking about you. Sorry I haven't left a note the last few times I've been by here, no excuse other than I kept thinking I'd have more time later to leave a thoughtful comment. Since that hasn't happened yet and time seems to keep getting away from me, I thought a quick comment was better than no comment.
So glad to see you're hanging tough and pulling through. And SO glad to see you're laughing some!
xoxo,
debbie
