Ouch

Todays headlines are as follows.

1) Hubby's grandad is out of hospital and doing well again. He has lots of pills so we are hoping he doesn't have another bad side effect like last time. He came out on Tuesday but went back on Wednesday due to his medication making his blood pressure too low.

2) Hubby had a little slip on the stairs yesterday. Bruised bum, scraped thigh. Nothing too serious.

3) Hubby's step-mum had a fall on Thursday, She's not old but had a trip whilst shopping, put her arm out to balance herself and ended up with a broken shoulder.

4) I crashed the car. Yep, me, big bad me. Accidentally touched the accelerator rather than the brake and hit a stationary car in a supermarket car park. Minimal damage to my car but a bump and 2 nice lines down the back passenger seat of other car. No-one was about for the car and after 20 minutes I left the car park as I had to collect Liam for school. Fear not dearest readers, I do actually have a conscience and have sent my details off to the supermarket in case anyone wants to claim on insurance. I also phoned the police as I know it's a crime to "hit and run" though I personally don't think waiting 20 minutes for someone to come out is exactly running away from the scene of a crime. Anyway, I don't the rules of car parks and prosecution nor do I know if there were security cameras or witnesses so I've covered my arse so to speak. If I get fined and points on my license I deserve it. I was entirely at fault and fucked up. End of. I was so cool and collected it was unbelievable. Even owning up to the police was fine. I work TOO well under pressure, maybe I should become a spy...... Anyway, that was Friday. I couldn't hide the damage so I told hubby someone else hit me and didn't stop. I was generally feeling very down and upset with myself. We had to fix part of the bumper back on and there was a little paint damage but on the whole all was fine. I eventually told him the truth this morning. He was cool with it.  Told me that car parks often work on different laws as private land and that I could have probably gone immediately and not owned up without any repercussions. However, I am an honest person and I know how I would have felt if that was my vehicle so I owned up. I didn't sleep hardly at all that night through feelings of guilt and paranoia of police turning up etc. My conscience is too huge.

5) Liams school application is in. I submitted it all online and got an email back instantly to say my admissions application had been received.

6) I have now lost 33lbs with Weight Watchers this year. I want to lose 9 more by Christmas and new year so I can say I've lost 3 stone this year.

7) My kids (the little ones) have learnt how to play movies through the tv.

8) It's only 6 more weeks until the schools finish for Christmas. That's CRAZY! Where has 2013 gone? Not that I'm particularly gonna miss it. It's been a bit of a forgettable year.

9) Hubby and I are going out for dinner by ourselves tonight. I think I deserve that large glass of wine that I have my mind set on. No idea what to eat, but boy, do I need wine.

10) Happy Week ahead to one and all.
