Oops
I wish I’d taken a picture, but I managed to get my car in a deep ditch today- Calin and I were driving home from church when the car started fishtailing. I tried to compensate and thought I was handling it pretty well, but then I saw a car coming in the opposite direction and stupidly touched the brake which caused the car to go sideways and into a steep ditch.
Maybe it was the spirit of Christmas, or the fact that I’m off work for two weeks, but I didn’t freak out, curse or anything- just calmly called AAA and they got the car out. We were also fortunate that some church friends saw us and waited for the tow truck with us. We also got a visit by a Monroe County Sheriff’s Deputy who kept calling me “Bubba” for some reason.
Now I just need to see if I can have the car looked at before we leave for vacation- it should be fine, but I’d still feel better if I can have someone look it over to make sure I didn’t break anything during the fall.

Glad everyone’s ok. Hopefully the car is too.
Rochester Snow will do it every time.
