Hi all--sorry I haven't been around. I haven't yet checked my journal, but I know from e-mail that someone has probably been looking for me.
After women's retreat and Grand Canyon visits, I was in a bad car accident. My new (2001) car is totalled--I was hit right on the driver's side, hard. My mom says God had a protective bubble around me...the doctor's can't believe nothing is broken. I had a concussion and had to stay at mom's for several days. I'm bumped and bruised and scraped and sore...but thankfully that appears to be all.
At the retreat and Grand Canyon I managed to stay on this WOE. Surprise encouragement from my aunt who came out from MI....she was LC-ing too! But she'd given it up for the trip. She's retired and they are spending two months travelling around country to see her 4 kids, friends, and other family members (like me). She said it was too much to expect everyone to change what food they serve in their homes for her. But she was encouraged by my sticking to it while we were together
Unfortunately, after the accident I had to stay at my mom's and at first was really queasy---all I could stand the thought of eating was crackers. Then, of course, she made all those wonderfully starchy and sugary mom things that are comforting. Yikes
Today is my first day back home and first day back to this WOL. Wish me luck. I'm off work until at least Thursday--doctor's orders, so I hope to spend some of that time catching up with you all. I missed you all and could hardly wait to get back to your smilies and encouragement.
Yikes! Car Accident
