Two Scares in One Day

Today, despite having company, it was quite the day. First I had some spotting. I'd thought I had some a couple of days ago but just dismissed it. Well, this morning I decided I'd better call the doctor. They gave me the whole rigmarole that since it wasn't bright and all, to just take it easy. Then they said they'd consult a doctor after the phone call, but when I told them of my last pregnancy and asked that they tell my doctor they told him right away and got me an appointment for the afternoon. It was great to have my aunt here to baby-sit (thanks Cindy). Well, I wasn't too concerned about it but a bit, but I've been feeling the little one move so figured all was fine but just wanted that assurance. And of course everything was fine. I really disappointed Zach in not finding out the sex...the baby was in the perfect position... I have my regular ultrasound next week so maybe I'll give in but I love, love, love the surprise at the end.

Well, on my way to the doctors I was driving along about to take my exit when some guy HIT me. I was LIVID and shook up! Then it appeared he was going to drive off. I pulled over right away and called Zach (even before I called the police). I finally saw the guy stop so I went up to where he was. I asked him what he was doing driving off, and I was not too happy when I asked! He claimed he was trying to find a 'safe' place to pull over so he didn't get hit...UH, buddy you just hit me in MY lane on the interstate...what are the chances of getting hit on the side of the road??? Then I called the police and the guy got mad- he just wanted us to settle it ourselves and exchange insurance info (I was not about to give him my info when it was not my fault). Anyway, my Prince Charming finally arrived right after the police. I need to call our insurance in the morning but we better not have to pay a dime since it was totally his fault coming into my lane and hitting me. The drivers side is banged up...not terribly bad but bad enough. Why oh why on our brand new suburban??? And he told the cop, "I just looked up and she was there". Where were you looking before that and how did you all of a sudden end up in my lane??? Anyway, I am fine and that is what matters.

Princess is having a sleepover at Aunt Cindy's. When we drove into the campground to drop them off it was just getting dark and she said, "Oooh its spooky in here". But she is really excited- so excited she forgot to kiss me good-bye and goodnight until I reminded her!
