I hate diaryland. I hate that I never remember to just write out my damn entry in notepad and paste it. I hate that I type and type and type an entire entry and then hit the backspace button thinking my cursor is in the text window when it isn't and my page goes back one. I lose everything.
I had several paragraphs. *sigh* I'm just to tired for this!
Ok, recap: Everyone is still fine. I feel drained and tired with no amount of energy but heck, that could just be pregnancy. The left side of my neck is a little stiff but I was sitting on the couch kind of weird and that could of caused it. I'm not sore or anything like I thought I would be when I woke up. The Kidlet is fine although he keeps saying he's hurt. I think he just means that he was hurt in the accident. He's completely acting himself. The Hunk's wrist is slightly stiff but nothing that he feels the need to take pain meds for and went on to work this afternoon.
We went to the car today to get stuff out of it since it is going to have to be towed somewhere. I think we are going to send it to the F0rd Dealership. We also took pictures of the damage. Sometimes I think that it doesn't really look that bad and that the car accident wasn't as major as it felt. Other times I look at it and think of how lucky we were to walk away with virtually no injuries.
The pictures are big so I'm just going to text link them:

After we were finished in the emergency room last night, we could see a Care Flite chopper just a short way accross the parking lot. It was getting ready to take off so we waited to see it leave. Those movies don't lie! That wind caused from the blades really, really blows. You feel as if it could knock you down. The Kidlet thought he was going to blow away. Poor guy, so traumatized yesterday! Anyway, today the winds were blowing around here and it felt like a chopper was right above us.
Eventually the sky broke loose and the rains came down. I didn't want the Hunk to drive to work. You couldn't barely see outside your own door. I have never seen anything like this before. By the time that he left though it had calmed down and passed over us. There were some winds and light rain but I felt better about letting him go.
About half way to work he calls me. I see his number on the caller ID and felt my heart sink. He said that he wasn't at work yet, but he was stuck in traffic behind an accident. He called his boss to let him know what was going on and his boss told him that the accident was one that another manager who works with the Hunk was involved in. Apparantly she lost control of her car and started spinning and hitting other cars. He wasn't quite sure that it was the same accident but he was almost sure. He called me a few minutes later and said that he had just passed the accident scene and it was her. She was talking to a cop and was visibly shaken and crying. He wanted to pick her up but saw another employee that had been sent to get her already there. He also couldn't get over to her.
He said that her car is demolished. The front of it is just almost gone and that there were about 8 to 10 cars total that were involved. Some had very minor damage and some had some pretty good damage to them.
Is there something in the water?? Please, drive carefully out there people! I mean, in bad weather sometimes things are just out of your control. The Hunk thinks that someone might have clipped her, causing her car to spin out of control. He said she had her work clothes on, and was heading in the direction of work so he doesn't think that her baby girl was with her. He didn't see her holding a baby at all. Thank heaven for small miracles.
Our day was so good yesterday too. I mean before hand. We had gotten the car inspected, oil changed, fresh tank of gas, cleaned out the trash and put a new really good smelly dolphin (I mean a dolphin that smells good, not a good dolphin that is smelly) from the rearview mirror. We were just talking about where to go out to eat for dinner because my MIL had given us 20 bucks to pay us back for buying her computer some speakers.
I didn't even mention yesterday that I had two packages arrive. The first one was the Swing. Now, mind you. I hate when I'm not home to get a package because I hate waiting to get it! I have no patience. But um, please do NOT leave my packages that cost me lots of money on my door step. In the rain. With my Welcome mat standing up against the front. Who was the delivery man trying to fool?
"Oh is that a package just sitting there?" says hooligan #1."Yeah man, look it's a package! We should take it." says hooligan #2.
"Naw guys, what are you thinking! It's a welcome mat standing on its side." says hooligan #3.
"You're right! Boy I was totally fooled. I thought that was someone's package that they had spent money on and had just been left infront of the door for deliquents like us to take." says hooligan #1.
Sheesh! Thank goodness the box wasn't wet or anything. After the accident, emergency room, McD0n@ld's, and some shopping at W@l*M@rt, we arrived home to find a note left on our door from UPS stating they tried to drop off a package but left it in the office. How polite! Finally! Leave the package in the office, not on my door step, and actually let me know that you were here! Novell idea.
The second package was an unexpected diaper bag! Here I had none, now I have two! That works out well so that when I'm washing one, I can be using the other or something. Or possibly both when we go on our New Mexico vacation in June. It was sent by a family friend and I think it is adorable.
I think that I have caught you guys all up on what has been going on. I think that I'm ready for this baby to come home, necessity wise. The house still isn't organized but I'm working on it and the crib isn't here but he doesn't need it just yet. I have all the packages of diapers that I need, wipes and other important necessities. The only thing that is left is getting the dresser and storage cabinet for the Kidlet's room so we have a place to put his and the baby's clothes. They are both white and I'm going to get some of those wallpaper cut outs to put on there to decorate them. Bears for the Wee One and Spiderman for the Kidlet. I think it is going to turn out so cute. The last major "getting ready" thing I have left to do is pack my hospital bag. That totally makes me feel like this is just right around the corner! It's almost time!
Thank you again guys for your love and support. We're doing fine here. Sometimes I really feel there is something in me that needs to break down and cry because I haven't and other times I'm just so glad that we're ok and I don't want to cry. You are amazed at how brave your body and mind will be when your child is scared. I just knew, even without thinking it sometimes, that if I fell apart so would he. You just worry so much more about them than what happened or yourself. He was the one holding me together without even realizing it.
