Was in a car accident yesterday . I am everyone else are fine I've only hurt my knee . I couldn't feel any of joint pains because of the shock . It's amazing how that happens . Yesterday incident has made me realise that I need to take gloves and a jacket wherever I go from now on. I had a jumper on and took my waterproof . I didn't take any gloves . Luckily had my jacket otherwise the 2 hours on the road side would have been a lot worse .

Today is my 17th birthday . So had quite an unusual weekend that I weren't expecting .

Happy birthday LouLamb .πŸŽ‚πŸŽ‚πŸ°πŸ°πŸΎπŸΎπŸΎ

Hope you have a brilliant day and do something lovely.

Sorry about your accident yesterday and glad you weren't hurt,still it shakes you up all the same.

It's amazing how that adrenalin kick puts all pain out of the way temporarily it's a good feeling.

Good idea to be prepared so nay be a good idea to keep a "warm bag" of stuff in the car boot in case of need.

Take care,stay well and have a great day.

Did you get it checked out? Or did you clean it up yourself? The shock of an accident is not nice. Take it easy the next week or so. Enjoy your birthday evening. πŸŽ‚πŸŽˆπŸŽ

Didn't get it checked . Weren't bleeding or nothing . I went to work today but felt sick and I'll . I'm not gonna go in tomorrow to work . It might be the shock that is leading me to feel ill so a day of rest would probably be best

Sounds like a good plan. Us lupies need rest after something like that. Put your feet up. x

Sorry to hear you were in car accident but glad not terribly hurt.

Delayed shock can be a funny old thing, put your feet up and rest. 😊
