On my way home from work tonight I had forgetten to pay my moms telephone bill she ask me to .. So I stopped at HyVee, hubby called when I got off of work to ask me if I would stop at the local Whiteys to get him a Hot fudge sundae.. hmmm if only I could eat one .. oh well back to the story.
I went in paid the bill for my Mom and then headed out to the car , it was sprinkling rain at that time .. I got in the car and proceeded to leave the parking lot.. As i got up to the exit which by the way I never take it I always go out the back way because its hard to get out of the parking lot , just a stop sign for people coming out but not for the side streets..
Well to make a long story short .. I was getting ready to exit the parking lot and I looked to my left which there was a motorcycle comeing but he had his turn signal on to turn into HyVee , then I Looked to the right to see if there was any cars assuming that when I looked to the left the bike would of been along side of me but to my surprise I didnt see anything and just took off out of the driveway.
Well the guy evidently must of lost control and went to turn he was driving to fast for condition instead of making the turn he slid right in front of my car and hmm I hit him, it all happen so fast i was in a state of panic .. I got out to see if he was ok and he jumped up and was cursing and throwing stuff parts of his bike and his helmet thus scaring the shit out of me .. I made a bee line back to my car and called 911 and spoke to the officer all the time im scared to death this guy would come over to my car and continue to scream at me .. locking my doors still parking halfway out in the street.. i was terrified , the dispatcher was very nice lady she kept me as calm as she could all the while a full fledge Panic Attack was on it way. she wouldn't let me off the phone , I wanted to call my hubby but she said no stay on the line till the police officer came,
she said she would call my hubby and get him there for me finally she heard the office was there I ASK DID YOU GET AHOLD OF MY HUSBAND.. She said no but would keep trying ..
Finally she let me off the phone and the officer came up to me and said are you all right ,, I said im in the middle of a panic attack he said don't do that I have had one and never want to go through that again.
kind of made me laugh , I'm talking to a Police office big strong man who you would think would not have those.. but I guess big people have them too..
Well after calming me down he told me to move the car back , I was shaking so bad he ask if i could do otherwise he would .. I managed to back up were he told me to..
then and only then did I try and call hubby myself it was taking him way to long to get there as we only live less than 5 blocks from were I was at..
He said he was on his way.. ok im all stressed i cant for the life of me find my dam insurance card its there I know its there but were is it , its not were it is to be .. he said lets just start with your drivers license so I gave it to him.. then continued looking for the insurance card.. found it not were it was to be but found it before that I called my life savor daughter .. Christy she is my salvation my rock she keeps me straight..
finally hubby is there i give him the card to take to the police man as I sit in the car shaking and crying and just trying to breath .. thank god for christy she came and saved the day calming me down telling me to breath..
Then my other daughter showed up and then there was two of my girls.. my son called hubby spoke to him I dont know much was said I was way to upset to talk to anyone..
well what seemed like hours which was only one hour the driver of the motorcycle refused treatment , still holding his arm i ask if he was ok he said yes ..
All I could see and still in vision is that man laying in the middle of the street floppy around and thinking omg I killed him, till he got up ..
My bumper is messed up and then I have blue paint on my hood of my car.. I drive a 98 blazer it sets up higher than the motorcycle..
So that is why I didn't see him .. the officer suspected that when he went to make the turn in HyVee he lost control and went down just as he got to me thats why I didnt see him anymore and thus hit him and he skidded on down the street..
My mind keeps seeing that over and over again .. when you hit another person all you can see is omg I hope he dont die I could not live with that..
The officer spoke to him and then came over to me and said tell me your side of the story sweetie lol. he was so so nice trying to keep my mind off of having my panic attack .. I told him what happened and he said thats good , its exactly what he told me . so you don't have anything to worry about ..
The driver of the motorcycle tried to change his story and the officer said no you said this the same thing the other driver said .. he got the ticket for not having his motorcycle under control and I got nothing .. just a police report to fill out .. And a warning that my license plate was expired .. I was going to go up there today but decided not to and wait till tomorrow .. should of went today.. grrrr anyway he said it would be ok..
You can bet I will be up there tomorrow getting them . man.. things happen for a reason .. if I did not go to Hyvee to pay my moms phone bill which I should of did earlier today , and if my hubby didnt call and want a Hot fudge sundae I would of been home safe and sound.
I'm glad the man is not to badly hurt , I dont know what I would of done if it was more serious.
Bad thing about it is I had the dispatcher call my hubby she wouldn't let me off the phone I was so stressed out and she kept me calm.. or somewhat. Hubby didn't know the number and didn't answer the phone .. when they left the message he called the number back and soon found out it was me he was there in minutes..
What a night I hope I can sleep tonight we have to call the insurance tomorrow and get this police report filled out , and then we have to have the car looked at and a estimate done on it . Once I get up in the morning will take a picture of it for you all to see ..
Its so sad that we are having so much trouble with this car ,, im beginning to think that we should have it . first the motor and then other things going wrong on it.
Here is a little tip check your car out and know were all your buttons are and what they are all for .. it took me forever to find the hazard lights .. lol
Well even though i had my seat belt on both of my shoulders are hurtting me and the back of my neck.. I suppose I was tensed up when I hit him the jolt and back and forth reaction .. What i am happy about is that the air bag did not go off. I would of really freaked.
I hope something good starts happening for us very soon.. we want to move to a lower apt .. will that ever come true.
Well im so sore now and just got out of the hot tub and need to go to bed.. and relax , i'm going to be sore tomorrow from tightening up ..
I feel so bad for that man he got a ticket and got hurt. I have to keep reminding me that it was not my fault.
I got to go im tired.. write more tomorrow..
