Monday Funday!

I'm having a pretty good Monday, and that's awesome because this weekend was not so fantastic!

Friday night Lee's birthday was a success. Dinner was good (they even had my most favorite soup EVER! and they never have it!) and he was very surprised with/enjoyed his gifts. Nothing too exciting, but here are some pictures from the evening:

Then on Saturday, Lee went to Norman for the OU game. While he was gone, I went to the mall for a couple things, and as I was leaving, I totally slammed into another car while trying to turn left across 4 lanes of traffic :( I have never been in a car accident before so it really shook me up. And the car I hit, I hit on the back passenger side and two little girls were in the car!! It was everything I could do not to cry. The girls were just fine, thank God, and the man was SUPER nice. A lot nicer than I probably would have been. I felt soooo stupid. Like I was the only person in the world who has ever caused a wreck. The man was driving a company car so we had to call the police, so I knew that I would probably get a ticket. When the cop got there, he was soooo nice too, he kept apologizing to me that he had to give me a ticket. He was so nice that I started crying, but tried to pretend like I wasn't. Anyway, everyone was just fine so that is the important thing, but it's just embarrassing to admit to people. I mean, I just absolutely did not see him at all! My car has pretty bad blind spots in the front and back so I have always been extra cautious, but I guess this time I should have looked once more. I pretty much cried off and on all day on Saturday. And it was worse because Lee wasn't here. He kept asking if I wanted him to come home but I wanted him to have fun with his friends so I said no. Well, he ended up not really having a great time and said he would rather have come home!

Here's what my car looks like :( Ugh, I could cry just looking at it! I love my car! I didn't take a picture of it, but behind the headlight, on the side panel, it's all dented in there too. I'm very lucky that I didn't do any damage to the engine or radiator or anything.

And to make matters worse, we had JUST changed out car insurance to a higher deductible, because we never get into accidents! We did that on Oct.1! I am so mad at myself. And just as I was trying to figure out how to pay for the damage, I checked the mail and we had gotten a check from my old homeowner's insurance for the amount we had overpaid when we switched to the new company (we moved homeowners and cars all into one). It was almost the exact amount of our deductible! Seriously that was a gift from God because I was stressing out! Lee has the day off work today so he called the insurance guy and he has gotten it all taken care of :) My car is in the shop as we speak and I'm getting a rental.

I feel much better about the whole situation today, but Lee said that the insurance claims adjuster is going to call me for a statement! I have yet to be able to talk about it without crying, so I really hope that I can hold it together because that would be really embarrassing!

Lee got back from Norman yesterday around noon, and I'm not lying when I say that we laid on the couch all day long!! We never do that, but we were both exhausted from our Saturday events. The house was a mess when I left this morning, I mean, really bad! haha, oh well.

I just got some really exciting news at work, my supervisor is getting switched to someone that I'm good friends with and who is a lot better than my previous supervisor and I am SO excited!! I mean, seriously people, this is the best news I've gotten since the day I started here!

Okay, we've got a meeting (likely about the supervisor change, since she told me right when she found out!) so I've gotta run, but I hope everyone's week is off to a great start!
