Bad Day Yesterday

Yesterday didn't start out as a bad day. I put a quilt on the frame that needs to be done for the quilt show and got it started. I had an appointment to get my haircut so hopped in the car to go to Marti's house. At the end of my street, I turn left but this time, a speeding car didn't see me and hit me - hard.

I called 911 right away but fortunately an officer just happened to drive by right after it happened. My car got turned completely around and headed back up my street again. I have heard that most accidents are very close to home - this one was just about 1 block from my house.

Also, the fire department and an ambulance came. Luckily Bill was close by at the dentist and I was able to call him and he also arrived very soon. I decided not to go in the ambulance but agreed to go to the ER.
I don't really think the car can be fixed but the insurance company will hopefully decide that - and soon. I think the frame is bent.

I actually broke the driver's side window with my head. Once we got to the ER, they put my neck in a brace and did a cat scan, as well as x-ray's of my neck. After about 4 1/2 hours, they decided I disn't have any damage that they could identify except for bruises and abrasions. They gave me some pain pills and sent me home.

The quilt show is next week and I still have a couple of quilts to finish. I got one done today that was fairly simple but still took quite a while. I have my color rainbow to finish.

I still have a sore head with a lump on it and seatbelt bruises, a stiff neck and assorted other pains but overall, it wasn't bad. Fortunately, the young man who hit me didn't appear to have any injuries at all.
