Okay, so school started yesterday, and all these parents are taking their kids to school on the first day. We all have the same purpose - Do they ever stop and think? We all want our children to get there safe, but how can they with STUPID parents. These kids are doomed, parents doing crazy things like pulling into the parking lot and stopping in the left lane - hello - the left lane is for thru traffic. Okay, so maybe you cannot read, you should go back to school to. After leaving the school there are two lane going west, I'm in the right lane, a huge SUV is in the left lane and decides to park right after the stop sign - HELLO - I'm the little gray/silver car that you almost hit.
Okay - maybe it's the car - does it still say 'Please Hit Me!"
So my sister and I have always had our differences, but she is the only sister I have so when something happens to her - I do feel horrible for not being a better sister. Guilty, for not living closer to her. My sister was coming out of a grocery store with her daughter, when a very impatient teenager or young adult driving mom's car decided to go around some slow moving people and hit Shari and Bailee. Thankful, neither of them had any major injuries and my sister took most of the impact while protecting sweet Bailee. Lots of bruising, swollen, cuts, scratches - no broken bones - very sore. So this punk looks at my sister and drives off - someone who witnessed the accident followed this punk and called 9-1-1. He had been arrested and now faces several charges including a couple of felonies, so he is in jail. It is nice to know there are still people in this world to do something nice. I feel horrible for my sister and her children, who all saw my sister covered in blood. She was in shock and it was hard for the EMT's to calm her down, she is now recovering at home.
Yesterday, I also had my meetings with my staff - what a huge difference. I am so proud of the effort everyone is doing. They are working together and are nicer. I just had to tell them - how to do it and give them advice. I am totally impressed - delighted that I have made a difference and ready for their challenges that I have given them. I cannot wait to see their responses now.

Jody said the same thing about the first day of school - the parents were maniacs and totally not thinking!!
Sorry to hear about your sis, Deb! However, don't worry about being a "better" sister! Your relationship is what it is and because of the two totally different people you are, you will never be that close.
Congrats on the goings on at the office - it's awesome that you are making so many positive changes!!
hi debbie! i like the pink color of your blog. from cassidy.
People these days are so focused on their own shtick that they selfishly ignore the needs of others.
It's nice to see the punk rotting in jail. This being the U.S., I smell a lovely lawsuit too. And if he never drives again, it'll be too soon.
Thank goodness everyone's OK.
Great blog you have here, BTW. I'll be back.
