Last month, Sophia and I got in a nasty car accident. We were headed to my mom's house before work. I was turning left and dummy ran a red light and hit me pretty much head on. All 3 airbags on the driver side of my car deployed. Baby's car seat popped out of the base. Thank heavens we had someone watching over us that day! Sophia cried for a quick second after it happened. I think more because it woke her up than anything. She did not have a scratch on her. I had a really nasty bruise on the back of my arm from the side airbag, some seatbelt bruising, and some chemical burn on my hand from the airbag. Everytime I think back on it, all I can think about is how lucky we were to walk away from it nearly unharmed. The guy who hit us had no car insurance and no driver's license. Go figure. He walked away with a ticket. A slap on the wrist. Anyway, my car was totalled. Which sucks. I wasn't quite ready to give up my Civic yet, and I was really close to having it paid off. So I'm still a little sad about that. After much fighting with the insurance company, we got a settlement on my car, as well as some compensation for personal injury. So I was able to take that money and have a pretty decent down payment on a new car. I got me a brand new, pretty white Toyota Yaris! Yep, Scott and I now have matching cars! Aren't we cute?!? Here is a small taste of the damages...
In other news, Scott has been working since the beginning of summer now! He works 1am-10am, which we hate pretty bad! So he comes home, goes to bed until I get home from work. Then we hang out until he has to leave at midnight. We still get the same amount of time together, but I'm home alone at night. It gets pretty lonely. But, it's a pay check for the time being. We'll keep looking for something better, but until then, we are happy that he is back to work.Not much else to update on. It really has been a pretty uneventful summer! Peace out!
