Funeral Arrangements for Betsy


















Yes, sad but true, but Betsy the Beast has gone on to a better place (actually, she is sitting in a towing lot in Nashville)

This morning my dear husband drove her to work because today was bike day at summer camp (this is the last full week for the kids to go). After dropping them off at camp, he proceeded to work. On his way, a lady hit him. He is ok...really he is...but the lady is at the hospital with neck/back pain. The police determined the wreck was her fault. I picked him up at Mrs. Winner's where the police dropped him off and we went to the visitation of Betsy at the tow in lot. She ain't pretty.


I'll miss you Betsy, but you know what, you are just a car.....and I am so thankful that my husband is ok.

Now to find a new car and a new name, sounds like fun huh?

He was listening to The Fray, wasn't he? Or maybe the lady driving the other car was listening to The Fray. Don't you just love saying The Fray? I'm glad Jonathan is okay. Maybe now he'll stop listening to The Fray. The Fray.

Actually, he was talking on his cell phone to a client, Mr. Smarty Pants. He said he felt so bad after he realized he had dropped the phone (he dropped it as he realized she was getting ready to hit him). He called her back to let her know he wasn't dead on the side of I-65. And you know what else? I was talking to your wife on the phone when he called to say he had the wreck....I'm sure I freaked her out!

I just discovered you're in TN. My fave aunt and uncle are in Old Hickory, TN. We love your state in general...go there all the time for vacations.
