And here is a scary photo of our car after last Thursday's accident. My dh was on his way home from music practice at church, doing 40 mph on a main thoroughfare when a lady pulled out from a shopping center parking lot without looking. Larry's calf muscles ache from the effort he put into trying to stop; he swerved into the next lane, but the woman kept coming! The right front of our car hit the woman's car, which then swung around and hit the back door of our car!
Thankfully, no serious injuries. But you are looking at our transportation to Minneapolis and Milwaukee this week!! I am hoping the insurance company officially declares who was at fault (the policeman cited the traffic rule that says anyone exiting private property must yield to oncoming traffic) so we can rent a vehicle for our trip. Our second car is a "rough rider" and I can't trust my temperamental back to it's shenanigans. Life is never simple. We know this will end up costing us money, but have decided to set it all aside until we return from our trip.
The good news is you can no longer tell where I bumped into the mailbox!
Thanks for your visit! We are more grateful than we are upset!!

Ouch on the car..good news that Larry can no longer see the small dent from the mailbox incident. I swear, you should do stand up!
Oh, yes...your card...how very Halloween like. Stitched moons, burlap new die cuts...it's a winner!!!
Even when you're telling a scary, serious story, you always seem to put a smile on my face! I am so relieved no one was hurt badly!
Love your adorable, fun card, my friend! Sending hugs! ♥
Oh, Judy! This could have been so much worse!! So glad Larry was not injured seriously. I hope the insurance company comes through with a rental for you in time for your trip.
I must remember to go to Tuesday Morning more often - there is always a good bargain or two there. I love this card you made; the burlap is the perfect substrate.
lovely card Judy but what a shame about the car. At least your hubby is okay. Cars can be replaced, people can't.
so glad know one was seriously hurt in the accident...scary though. luvin your card BTW, I got wrapped up in your accident story...lol. Hope you have a wonderful week.
enjoy *~*
