What I wore the day I got hit by a car

But before that story, I first wanted to thank you all for the kind words and support from my last post. It meant so much to me to see all of the comments and emails that I had received and to know that I've got all of you to help me through whatever may come my way.

Now onto my "I got hit by a car" story. Man, I've had a rough week. :)

On Tuesday, I woke up and put on this pretty dress thinking it was going to be a good day. I had a good attitude and was ready to turn things around.

Instead of the good day I was hoping for, I got hit by a car on my walk to work.

Yup. It happened.

I'm fine. The driver was going slow enough because he was rolling through a stop sign (and crosswalk. that I was very clearly half-way through). So no injuries other than a slightly twisted ankle from jumping out of the way.

After crying from pure adrenaline for at least 30 minutes and making a fool out of myself in front of my coworkers, I realized that I'm still wearing this pretty dress.  And the day got a little bit better. Thank god for pretty dresses.

  1. Oh my goodness! I am glad they were going slow and that you are ok. I probably would have cried for more than 30 minutes, so you are pretty brave.

  3. I'm so thankful you are okay. I was hit by a car in 2007. The driver was not going really fast, but hit me at maybe 20mph. I sustained a knee injury (Patellar Subluxation), but since then I have run 3 half marathons!

    Good thing you have such a great dress to cheer you up!
