April snow brings....?

I had a new adventure recentl.  I went snow boarding with my car.

 I was 5 blocks from home when  it happened.   I had just passed through the intersection when I saw him more in the middle of the street.  I instinctively moved right to give him room if he couldn’t stop.  When I saw him continue to slide I braced myself for the impact.  No air bags or anything too dramatic.  My car ended up  mostly on the curb. Thanks to the bumpy ride my new passenger side tire blew out.  (See below)

The driver side has most of the damage.  The window has small cracks, mirror is gone, huge dents and paint scraped off as well.  (See below)

I dropped off the wounded this afternoon.  Guess who is now driving a rented convertible…. in 30 degree weather.  (See below)

The guy took full responsibility and his insurance saw the police report stating he was driving too fast for conditions. It’s not like he was driving like a maniac or anything.  Oh the fun freak winter storms.

Remember the lovely view of the last bit of snow, I posted last time?  Here's the reality check. 

Stay warm and Happy Easter!

Love Sarah

Updates

Hi!

Thought I would update you all while I listen to our first spring thunderstorm roll in.  The picture below shows the remaining snow from our late blizzard (17 inches of snow fell that day).   The pile was 5 feet tall only a few days ago.

I am training again for a new 5k.  I will run with my Aunt and cousin in Minnesota on May 21.  I am not used to running outside... I like the temperature controlled gym :)  I am working on it. 

I also thankfully survived the layoffs at work.  My job will look very different next year. We will all have to be more dynamic and versatile to the students/college.  Soon the school year will be done.  In summer I will be working some in south east WI and just enjoying a very flexible schedule!:)  There are some nice perks to working where I do. 

Hope you are doing well.  God's blessings this Easter season.

Sarah
