I was at parking lot at a supermarket. I was putting all my groceory inside the car. When I put my hands on the cart and was about to put the cart back, I felt some push on my celltei bag (Haruka was in it). I was like "oh no..." Yes, someone was backing up and hit us! Good thing.. Haruka was okay.. and it was a little push.. so I didn't give her as hard time as I would have. I was just so upset. The lady wasn't looking. If I didn't raise my voice, she could have hit both of us...

I am so glad that Haruka was okay... I just said a few words... she was leaving anyway... My few words were very mean.. as you can imagine.

Phew, glad you both are ok, and sometimes people just don't pay attention. You have to drive and watch your back for the other person, because they won't.

LunasMomma · 01-17-2007, 07:56 PM

Ain't that the truth

! It makes me ILL how many I see that are chatting away on their cellphones. I love to count when there are cars turning left in front of me, as they go by

Average----50% of them have a phone in their hand, I bet that person did, grrr!

I'm so glad that you are both okay, that could have been so bad

kalina82 · 01-17-2007, 08:00 PM

OMG i would have been furious! glad you guys are ok. I would have been yelling at that lady and up in her face. I get mad enough when people aren't paying attention while driving, but for her to be so oblivious while driving to actually back up into a PERSON is unexcusable. I would have been all over that lady.

good for you for handling it better then i would have.

poor haruka, bet she was like 'what the hell???'

How scary

I'm glad you are both OK. Some people definitely should not be driving.

chattiesmom · 01-17-2007, 10:41 PM

What a scary experience! I am so glad that you are ok.

LuvMySissy · 01-18-2007, 05:06 AM

How scary for you!! I'm glad you were both okay. Actually backing into a PERSON means this driver needs some serious help. My words wouldn't have been too nice either!

FlDebra · 01-18-2007, 05:15 AM

Parking lots can be dangerous! Glad your little one was not hurt!

The only accidents I have had since I was a teenager were in parking lots. One lady backed into me (just like your situation, she did not look at all! But luckily I was in my car). The other, someone shoved their cart across the lane while I was backing out and it hit the side of my van. They just said, oops, ran to their own car and left!

chachi · 01-18-2007, 05:37 AM

Yikes! Sorry that happened to you. I have been about run down in store parking lots a couple of times. One time with My 6 yr old Daughter. You really have to be careful

Michiko can be very not shy when it comes to Haruka!! I am so glad she didn't hurt either of you and you didn't hurt her!!! I don't want to get a call from Jail!!! But seriously, what is wrong with people.

Jaxon's mom · 01-18-2007, 06:13 AM

OMG, Michiko I'm glad you are both ok!!!!! How can people just not look??? GRRRRRR.

Yorkie3 · 01-18-2007, 06:24 AM

So glad you both are okay!

Some people just don't have a clue and it makes me so angry. It's bad enough if it was just me, but when it's one of mine, skin or fur, I would have been furious and let them know it!

Yorkiedaze · 01-18-2007, 02:43 PM

You really have to watch the old people too. They can't turn their heads very far and often times just run into things. I'm glad no real damage was done and I can understand your emotional outburst. I may have done the same thing.

Dena · 01-18-2007, 03:15 PM

thats ridiculous!!
I'd be sooo upset. If she was going any faster at all.. you wouldn't have had time to look around and yell

Glad you two are okay
