Nothing like a crash to come to your senses

So, how did you get on Busy Girl? Manage to prioritise just 3 things to do yesterday? Hard isn't it? I really struggled to get back into it yesterday - with being away on hols last week. I managed to get 2 of the 3 things done on my list but then on my way to lunch someone decided drive into the road without looking and ploughed into my car, ripping the back end off. I spent the rest of the day trying to change the tyre, sort out the insurance and get it booked into the nearest garage whilst shaking with that instinctive panic that envelops you when you have a crash.


Makes you think doesn't it. One minute you're there worrying about your to do list, the next life slaps you firmly in the face and makes you realise that actually there are more important things than being efficient - like being alive.


Don't mean to dramatise, but it really hit home (excuse the pun) yesterday - I realised if he'd hit me a milli-second sooner, I may have ended up mashed into the car, because he would have hit me at 30mph directly on the driver's door.


Today I'm going to get the car to the garage and then make sure I actually enjoy my day whilst getting things done without worrying - because let's face it, today could have been a different story.


See you later Busy Girls
