Grand just grand!
Actually, now that I think about it, a little put in my place... wherever that might be.
I feel ever so incrementally elevated.
Can I have more than 1 word please? I need a virtual hug....:(:blush::bawling:
embarrassed, humiliated, sad, and more than a little annoyed with myself.
:)Thanks Janine, I needed that. I pranged my car this morning, I had an argument with a wall, and my rear end lost! I only got my licence very recently, and now I've damaged my lovely little car. It's being tended to by my local garage, and I'm hopefully picking it up tomorrow. Luckily, it wasn't badly damaged, it was a bit battered and bruised and one of the lights was smashed, but no-one was hurt, that's a blessing, as it was at school, and none of the kids were around, (thankfully). A couple of staff heard the commotion though, but I had escaped into the Library to lick my wounds, (not literal I hasten to add) hence the embarrassment :blush: It's a horrible car park, on a hill, and I rolled back into the wall, making a terrific noise on impact! I think I have a mental block with it, as I panic about it every day, and now I'll have to drive in there again :bawling:
Anyway, it could have been worse, so I must try and forget it, but I was really upset with myself, and kept thinking about if one of the kids had been there and shuddering at what might have happened.
I'm sorry you're not feeling well. I hope you're feeling better soon, and here's a *BIG HUG* back from me :). Have you tried peppermint, as I think that's good for indigestion and stomach ache, but I may be wrong?
Is 'pranged' a British word? I guess we call it 'cracked up' our car or 'smashed' it. I am good at backing into things, as well. I went to a concert at a church and backed right into a small tree; it was tricky parking and I swear I did not see it. I did some minor damage and was annoyed by it emensely. I know the feeling. When I first started driving - think I was 18 - I had a number of similar incidents - don't we all? Once, I went to a lake and took a carload of kids and coming out of the lot, backed up right into a very large tree...."those darn trees just seem to grow." My mother used to always say that!
I know that 'panic' feeling, but in my case, it was over me possibly drowning. That happened to me a couple of times; later on I got chills thinking about it. Thank God, I did not drown. Needless to say, my time water-skiing was a very short one. I switched to snow-skiing instead; at least, you can't drown.
Yes, glad it wasn't tragic. What happened? Did you forget to put your emergency brake on? Were you in the car at the time? Glad you did not get hurt either.Quote:

It's a weird day here today. I was out all day yesterday, in the drizzling rain and cold; today I just woke with such indigestion/heartburn. I thought maybe I forgot to take a pill that controls that. I actually now may have taken two, but it won't hurt me. I have peppermint tea, but sometimes, that will even make my indigestion worse. I read where chamomile was better for indigestion and longer lasting. I should drink some tonight. I think something I ate yesterday brought this on. Thanks for the *BIG HUG* ...I can use it today....still rainy here. I was suppose to go somewhere, but canceled out. I am glad. Too miserable out.Quote:

Invigorated :)
Janine- Hope you're feeling better!! *hugs*
Sleepy, but productive.
I think "pranged" might be a British word, we use it a lot over here I think, but I've only heard it in relation to having a bump in your car. It's not as serious as a crash.
I'm not actually sure what happened. I have been reversing into a parking bay which is on a steep gradient, with a building behind it, and have been stressing about getting into the bay without straddling the lines. I did that fine, but then I think I must have hit the accelerator instead of the brake, as the car shot backwards into the wall. I had my handbrake on, but it all happened so quickly I couldn't stop it. I've been getting in work really early, so that I can park without stressing myself too much, so I'm glad I didn't hit another car. But no-one else seems to park there, and I know why now, as a few members of staff said they won't reverse there for that reason. I don't know where I'm going to park in future, space is very limited, but I'm worrying now in case I do it again. I may have to try and park off site and walk in, but there's nowhere else really to go. Why did I learn to drive :(? I've only been doing it for about a month.
It's funny you've mentioned chamomile, I had a cup of tea this afternoon, as my colleague has it as a calming tea, (my stomach was doing cartwheels). I have some peppermint tea too, but I haven't tried it yet. I am having a glass of wine at the moment, that's more like it!!!! Go for that :).
oh i am feeling estactic! We Will Rock You was amazing!
HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGS
and have a virtual cup of tea and a brownie tooo!

Tired. It's been a long week at work. And now ticked off from commenting in the Legalisation of Drugs thread. The thought of having worked just to support druggie rehab ticked me off. :D
Insecure :(
I'm feeling common.
