"Come out of the clouds Erin"

Friday morning I was brought out of the clouds. Traffic was light so I was having a good morning. As always the loop was a little slower, but it didn't really slow down till right before you go under 45 and that is when it happened. I heard the tires and thought, "Not me!", just in time to look up and see a truck piling into my bumper. Thankfully I remembered to take my foot off the break on impact and then put it back on in time to keep from hitting the car infront of me. When it was all said and done I had been pushed about a foot over into the lane next to me. This guy was hauling! After calling 911 I made it over to the shoulder shortly followed by the truck that hit me. I called Justin and he sent Cameron, his brother, to my rescue. I thought it was a little silly, but after he got there and we moved to where the officer said he would meet us, I was so thankful he was there. The man in the truck called his family and by the time the officer arrived, five memebers of his family had shown up. Everyone was very nice but it didn't help my car to look any better. Considering the hit I took, my car looks pretty good.

I was really sore over the weekend and really glad that I had already gone to the doctor on Friday. He gave me some muscle relaxers and other medicine to ease the pain in my back and neck. I sure am glad because I don't know if I would have made it thru the weekend. Praise God it wasn't worse than it was. That was my first real wreck and I don't think I could handle being in a bad wreck. God has really been watching over me because I've been driving the same path for over 3 years now and this was my first real accident. Now to deal with the insurance company and reapirs. Please keep me in your prayers because I have a feeling it is going to be a mess.

Soon to be Mr. and Mrs. Lane

Wow a lot has happened since my last post. Wednesday, October 31st Justin proposed and of course I said YES!!!! I knew it wasn't far away, but he really did surprise me. It was just the two of us at home, but that made it even more special. Justin did a great job picking out my ring. It is everything I dreamed of and more. He must love me! Anyways, Thursday I went to work to show off my ring and try to get some work done which didn't happen because I was in a daze all day. When I got home we started brain storming dates and ended up finding out it wasn't going to be as easy of a decision as we thought. I just think about how much I love him and remind myself that this is only one of many decisions we will have to make in the years to come! God has truly blessed me with a wonderful man that I will soon be able to call my husband. Ahh I can't wait!
