Lately, part of my brain is missing. I've had trouble remembering things and whats worse, is I continue to do absent minded things. Texting a friend so she could have my number..... I sent her a text with solely my number in it. Attempting to place milk in the pantry. Backing up in the school parking lot and hitting a fellow parent's car. And today, I backed up from dropping off Tarryn's friend from school and hit their mailbox!
I immediately called Brandon who had just picked up Corban from school and was headed home. He has bluetooth in his car so the call goes through the speakers for all to hear....
Brandon: Hello.
Summer (crying): I should be grounded from driving.
Brandon: What's wrong? What happened?
Summer: I hit the Starr's mailbox when I was backing out of their driveway.
Brandon: Is everyone okay? Is the mailbox still standing?
Summer: Yes, we're all okay. The mailbox is crooked but still standing.
Brandon: As long as everyone is okay...... at least it was a mailbox and not a kid or something.
Summer: There's a big old scratch in our car though now.
Brandon: Good thing we haven't gotten the car fixed from your other accident then huh?
Summer: Yes.
Brandon: We'll talk when we get home.
As soon as they got home, Corban, who had heard our conversation and was very concerned said, "Mom, I still love you even if you hit other people's mailboxes."
.....And the world was set right again.....
