TIMING IS EVERYTHING....

Many things have transpired since my last post - it feels right to be posting something new at last!

I have a pocket of time - 20 minutes - and will talk about as much as I am able to in that time-frame.

So the last time I posted was early December 2010. Thank God that year has gone! It was not the best year for me at all.

The year finished up with me having a terrible auto "hit and run" accident when I was travelling up to spend the holidays with my family. It was pouring with rain - had started two hours before - and visibility was bad. I was in the 3rd lane and a truck came up to my right side, attempted to come into my lane, and clipped me. I lost control of my car when his truck clipped me and careened across the freeway like a mad thing. My car smashed into the concrete middle divider, and careened back across the freeway fromn the impact. I ended up on the shoulder, facing the right way.

It was a miracle no other car hit me. It was a miracle I didn't hit another car. The cars all waited. A miracle. The most blessed miracle of all was that except for a bruised right breast from the tightness of the seat belt,I was unharmed! Both seen and unseen Angels surrounded me and helped me - the paramedics who left when they saw I was fine, the darling couple who stopped and remarked on how calm I was, and Officer Matthews of the Highway Patrol who was so kind to me I will never forget him - a seen Angel.

When things happen to me, both good things and bad things, I always look for the lesson. This accident was no different.

I will write more about the lessons I learned in my next post.

Be Fun Fit & Fabulous my sweethearts!
