Old Age Day by Day October 1, 2013

Yesterday was not my best day.  I was coming home from an errand, stopped at a red light, when the car behind me hit me.  I don't know if she was texting or her foot slipped off the brake or what.  I took down her information, and drove home, but was kind of stunned.  I hadn't actually considered I could be hit by someone while we were completely stopped.  Of course, it did damage to my car, and it will probably be expensive, and it will be trouble.  At least she was nice, and immediately asked if I was okay, and didn't put up any defense.  It was her father's car and his insurance, so I hope things go smoothly.

Last night we celebrated the dogs' ninth birthday, and our son came over with his dog, and a good time was had by all.  The three of us played scrabble after dinner, and as usual, our son beat us.  But we lost respectably.  Then we read for a while and got into bed after a challenging yet happy day.

This morning I'm taking the car in to the body shop.  Then I plan to not drive at all the rest of today.  It's a jungle out there, when you can get hit for stopping for a red light.
