Wow, this has been the week from hell. Tuesday evening I broke a tooth, but that's ok, because I knew it had to be extracted eventually, it just wasn't causing any problems at the time. But, because I'm scheduled to undergo cataract surgery next week, I didn't want to risk infection and so, I made an appointment Wednesday morning to see if I could just get a temporary filling until later. No dice; prepping the tooth for a filling would probably expose nerves, so made an appointment for Thursday morning to get said tooth removed. Ugh! I hate dental work, but better to get it done right away. Tried not to think about it since I had two more appointments that day. First appointment Wednesday afternoon was with a neurologist/sleep specialist to see if we could get my sleep patterns fixed (I have awful insomnia inherited from my mom). We decided to try ambien again (hurray), so, after that went to my pharmacy to pick that up along with penicillin to make sure I'd be ok for surgery next week. Got the meds and a spiced pumpkin latte at Starbucks before my next appointment. I'm cutting it close timewise, because I'm catching every light red. Waiting at a no turn on red traffic light with 5 minutes to spare, but I can see the doctor's office from where I'm sitting. Finally! The light turns green and I start to make my turn (wait for it...) SLAM! I get hit by a woman driving a big-ass Buick Escalade. We both pull over and ascertain that nobody is hurt. My brand new 2015 Nissan Rogue has major damage to the driver's side front bumper; her big-ass Buick SUV has a scuff mark on the passenger side front bumper. One second plus or minus and either I'm seriously injured, or her young daughter with cerebral palsy sitting in the front is seriously injured. Thank Goddess nobody was hurt! To be continued after I give my fingers a break...🐨😱
