After work last Wednesday night I decided to pick up a bag of treats for Boemee before going home to prepare for a dinner with McDreamy. And as I was driving, an elder lady driver made a quick left turn, cutting through both of the opposite direction lanes, not stopping in the median and driving diagonally through the direction I was going then hitting my car on the driver side. It was like in the movies where you see everything happening in slow motion. I was so scared and shaking for a good while. I just sat there in my car for a few minutes and then called 911 and my sister then texted McDreamy who came to the scene. It was a blessing that neither the elder lady nor I got hurt.

So my lovelies, no matter how careful you are as a driver, you cannot be sure about the other drivers on the road. Always be alert and be safe.

xs: I had a fine time with McDreamy during dinner.

Have a great weekend lovelies!

xoxo,
T

Oh dear! Good to hear you are okay! I'm terribly frightened about driving.

As for the outfit, it's darling. Cool bag!

Ela said...

Oh how scary! I'm so glad you were watched over and protected that no one got hurt. You really do just never know as careful as you are, what other drives just might do.

That dress fits you so perfectly! And I just love that belt. Glad you had a great time at dinner :)

Unknown said...

So relieved that no one was hurt! Everything else can be fixed or replaced.

Very chic black dress and the belt is the perfect accessory.

Love the gorgeous outfit, and more importantly that you are okay!

So true, you've gotta watch other drivers regardless of how safe you are as a driver.

And who is McDreamy? I'm intrigued.....

Cafe Fashionista said...

That LBD is fabulous - I love the slight cap sleeves; so rarely do you find an LBD with a splash of uniqueness like that! :)

I'm so glad that you're okay. I still don't have my driver's license - it is things like this that petrify me about driving; but I'm glad that you weren't hurt! :)

Midtown Girl said...

OMG - thank goodness you are ok darling! Wow..

And on a lighter note - LOVE the LBD & your pretty face!!

XOXO MG

Haute World said...

Sorry to hear about your car scare! So glad you're ok! I know what you mean about things happening in slow motion. I've been in some minor car incidents and it's like you're seeing everything but for some reason you can't stop it.

Love that outfit by the way! You can't go wrong with a LBD and the shoes are gorgeous!

Unknown said...

the LBD is gorge on you, love!

btw, i'm really glad everything is okay and nothing serious happened. totally know how you feel by that as i've had several run-ins (when my friends drove, i can't drive lol) like that... glad youre over it safely..

and i am so sorry about your accident. scary!!! i had one a few months back, and the slow-mo feeling was so weird. and scary. but i am glad you are ok, and i hope you have witnesses to the whole affair in case the lady that hit you is a cocksucker like the guy that hit me (he is trying to sue me).

how lovely you are in all the black, xoxo

Ashley said...

Ah I know what you mean about just sitting there and shaking! My mom and I were in a car crash when we were stopped for construction once and a car hit us from behind going 60mph. It was like everything was in slow motion and we were being hit and sliding across the road for hours, when it was really only a few seconds! Then we just sat there and shook and cried until the cops arrived, it was awful! I'm so so glad that you are ok, what a horrible thing to have to go through! You've had a rough few weeks! You and your family are in my thoughts, and it's about time some good luck come your way!!

So sorry to hear about this!! You are so sweet to always do kind things for Boemee. (-:

I have almost the same marks from being hit by a food delivery driver...while I was in DogDad's car last month. Don't tell him, but I stopped @ Target and superglued back on the trim that got knocked off so that it looked a little better before he saw. People drive like maniacs!!!!
