Thanks Soupers

Thanks for all the emails asking where I've been. I was in a small car wreck. My 18 year old 
took a curve too fast then over corrected twice and I in the back,,,(I never wear a seatbelt in 
the back) covered every inch of the back. Im just bumped and banged and the most poetic 
shades of blueish reds. 

Moral of the story, always wear a seatbelt even in the back, and maybe don't ride with 
teenagers.

You guys are like a web family and Ive missed you bunches.

Thanks again, loveudo, Laurie

Really sorry to hear about your accident, Laurie. There are people of all ages on our roads who shouldn't be licensed to drive. Hope your bruises heal quickly. We've missed you too! Love, Carolyn

Oh no Laurie!!! So sorry to hear, but so happy you are ok, as I assume everyone else is too, thank goodness. A traumatic experience I know, and thanks for the warning as sometimes in the backseat I do not wear my seat belt either. Heal well. Love and hugs, Shar xoxo
