Car totaled? Who's worried?

Well as great follow up to my previous post in which I expressed gratitude for not feeling worried about certain aspects of my life I get to tell you all about the accident Ryan and I got to on I-15 complete with pictures of our sad car.

We are fully insured and we are very grateful for our health which was very much protected during this accident. We were dropping me off at work and on our way a gold car decided he wanted our lane NOW and didn't look to see if we were in it. We were. Ryan noticed that he was coming over and tried to dodge him so he didn't side swipe us. He lost control of the car and we pulled a 180 and ran passenger front corner first into the cement median and then continued to drift and hit the passenger side up into the median as well. We sat facing the oncoming traffic of the carpool lane who didn't even pause as they passed the car facing the wrong way and called the cops and my work to try to get someone to cover for me.


We have a lot of guardian angels in our life. I just wish we had a financial one at this point to tell us what to do. We are grateful we didn't hit anyone else and so grateful we both walked away. Thank you everyone that was very concerned for us. We love you all.

PS the wheels you see here don't move, they are permanently bent in that position.

Oh my gosh, Kimi! How scary! I'm glad to hear you are okay. You didn't happen to have "Bad Day" playing at the time, did you?
