My dreary, drudgy week only got worse, I'm afraid.
On Tuesday morning, on the school run, I had a car accident involving two other cars. Thankfully and miraculously, no-one was hurt, but oh my goodness, it was pretty scary and only this afternoon have I stopped wobbling. I had my two kids with me, there was a taxi driver involved and a school minibus with three kids inside. Just cannot get out of my head all those horrid 'what might have been' thoughts. Shivers!
For this reason, I'm looking forward to a dreary and drudgy weekend with no moments of high drama!
On a brighter note, and something that's gone a little way to make me feeling better, I had a sale today to a Swedish magazine (it's rapidly becoming my favourite magazine in the whole wide world). However, if there are any other editors out there, willing to whisper sweet-nothings in my ear, such as 'we'd like to buy your story,' I could be easily swayed....
Wishing you all a peaceful and drama-free weekend.

Ouch Maddie that must have been very frightening. Congratulations on the sale and make sure to get lots of relaxing done this weekend.
oh no! You take care, will you?
That's so scary - I know exactly how it feels having experienced something similar a few years ago. Put me off driving for a while. Hope you have a peaceful weekend and congrats on the sale :o)
Thank goodness no one was hurt. I'm not surprised you shook for a few days - what an awful experience.
Well done on the sale!
Oh nasty! The after effects of something like that are horrible. Hope you have a calm weekend.
And huge congrats on your Swedish sale!! Well done!
Car accidents really do knock us for six - it's so horrible, especially when tiddlies are involved.
Glad the Swedish sale has cheered you up a little bit - have a really brilliantly relaxing weekend. Nurse Jenny recommends lots of lavender and a wee drop of the red falling over water.

SO glad you are all ok. Poor you, must have been very frightening indeed.
Congrats on the sale - they certainly love you, eh? More power to your pen, my dear :-)
Not a nice experience! Glad you were okay. Thank goodness there was a sale to cheer you up, and hope things steady up over the weekend.
Thanks, Yvonne and Honeysuckle. Feeling a bit better now.
Karen - Must admit it's put me off driving too and I'm very nervy behind the wheel at the moment which isn't good!
Thanks Womagwriter. I still can't believe we all got away without a scratch.
Lane - Thanks. I am indeed enjoying a nice, quiet weekend.
Thanks Jen. I'm not sure I have any lavender, but might be able to find a bottle or two of the other stuff!
Thanks, Tam. I know, two sales to them in the space of two weeks is unheard of. Not that I'm complaining.
Many thanks Penny. It is amazing, the recuperative effect of a sale!
Oh dear - only just read this. How awful for you, hope you're feeling better xxx
Thanks, Helen.
