strange times

so, it's been a weird week, and it's only wednesday!
i got in an accident on monday. thankfully, no one was hurt. i was heading home from wic, when i hit some black ice at an intersection and ran into the back tire of a dump truck. there was no damage to the truck, of course, but the front end of my van was nearly torn off. ok, that might be a bit of an exaggeration. but it was a bad day. it nearly tore off my front bumper, bent the frame a little under the hood, and smashed off the headlights. the cops came and took statements, and pics, and then i headed home. when i got home, i called the insurance and we got appointments set up to fix the van and get me a rental. the van should be done early next week. my rental is an 08 dodge caravan. it doesn't have a traditional key!
i started school today, and that was an adventure too. i was worried that i might be doing the wrong thing, since everything seems to be working against me going back. but as i was sitting there in my class today, it felt right. i was only enrolled for 11 cr, but the class that i need to fill out my schedule isn't open at all right now. i'm going to keep trying. in the meantime, i signed up for a fit for life class. it helps you create a plan for staying healthy for the rest of your life. it sounds interesting, but i really don't have credits to be throwing around.
i've learned the hard way that when i eat too much chocolate, we have a bad night. chocolate gives shannon some serious belly aches.
