So Unbelievably P*ssed Off! Crashed My Car & Stupid Ignorant Neighbours!
 

Today I had to go to take Amelia to the Dr's for her 12month injections. It was snowing when I left but not really that bad but when I left it was coming down pretty fast and the roads in my village were quite bad.

As I was coming down the hill to my street a kid ran across the road in front of me... how I didn't hit him I have NO idea... my car skidded and there was a car coming up the hill and a parked car in front of me, I knew I was going to hit either one of the cars or the wall at the side of the road. Seemed I had no control over which I was hitting and I hit the parked car pushing that down the hill into the car parked behind it! The kid and his friend saw me crash and ran off... the man driving the car coming up the hill was level with me when I crashed and he didn't even stop! Don't kids have common sense anymore??? Who runs across a slippery snow covered hill infront of a car???? Really???

It took me a long while to stop shaking. I phone my mum and cried to her when I got home.

Then a so-called friend of mine gave me a load of crap about women drivers... seriously! Great way to make me feel worse!

But no, the days not over yet...

Amelia's got a fever from her shots today and doesn't want to settle well in bed, so I'm upstairs settling her, she's crying and my neighbour starts BANGING on her bedroom wall!!!!! WTH!!! She wasn't even crying that loud! It's not like she was screaming!!!!

I never say anything when their dogs bark EVERYTIME I open my backdoor, for the entire time me or the girls are in the garden and until I shut the door again! Not one word!!!! They also have a daughter a couple of months older than Amelia... I've heard them letting her cry later than this - it was like 10.15!

So now Amelia is downstairs and because she's downstairs she's stimulated and wide awake and all the toys I not long cleared away are all over the room again and she's just having a ball.... but I have things I need to do on the computer and I can't while I have one eye on her!

Seriously, I just want to curl up and cry!

I'm sorry your day has been so awful :( (((hugs))) But I am glad you and Amelia were not hurt . I swear , kids make me nervous as I drive past them playing on a dry road , never mind a snow covered slippery one !

I hope Amelia is feeling better soon. Don't worry about your neighbor...bang the wall back :mad: If she cannot understand a sick baby cry than she isn't much of a mom.

I hope the rest of your night gets better and tomorrow brings only good things :)

OMG, seriously - your day could hardly be worse!! I am so glad your both okay though, how scary!! And what was that kid thinking??? ANd the man who didn't bother to stop? Wow.

I am so sorry you had a day like that, what a mess. :(

I'm so sorry you've had such a bad day! Thank goodness you or darling Amelia were not injured...and that you didn't hit that stupid kid. If you had, you'd be feeling even worse, even though it wouldn't have been your fault.
Sorry about your cranky neighbor. I think you should pour yourself a glass of wine and have yourself a nice and relaxing bubble bath! Hugs to you!

Oh gosh, Vicky! What a horrible day! :( I'm very sorry!

As for the neighbor...ignore them. What a JERK. and that's just stupidity....who thinks, 'Oh, the baby is crying. Let's bang on the wall to see if it shuts them up!' ? MORON!

So sorry your day was so bad. As everyone said, thank goodness you and Amelia and the kid that ran in front of you are ok. Hang in there! Take Connie's advice!!

I am so sorry you're having a bad day. A kid running in front of the car, what was he thinking!!!! Same thing happened to me once, I got out of work early and was in front of my building when a kid ran right in front of my car to get across the street. I don't remember doing anything, but apparently I turned into the upcoming little street without thinking. I pulled over to make sure the kid was ok. My mom came running from inside the building and I thought for sure, I'm going to get an earful from my mom. When the mother of the 4 yr old kid showed up (yes 4-ish) my mom let her have it!!! It turns out he had been running between the laundromat that's infront of my apt building, where the little boy's mom was washing clothes, and my building where he has a little friend. He had dogged another car before I came along that's why my mom let her have it!

Sorry it's kinda long, but I just wanted to let you know that I've been there and I'm sorry it's scary and I hope Amelia and you are ok. I hope she feels better soon and you have a chance to collect your thoughts. Sending many many HUGS!!!:ghug::ghug:

Vicky, I am so sorry you have had a rotten day. Those days DO make you want to crawl up in a ball and cry you eyes out. I sincerely hope that our sweet baby Amelia Grace gets to feeling better and that you have a better day tomorrow.

So sorry about your day:(, :big_hug:to you

Sorry about your day, Vicky. I'm glad no one was hurt. And as for you neighbor... What a jerk!! :mad:

Aw girl, I'm so sorry you had such a horrible day!!! I'm so glad no one was hurt though!

I wouldn't tolerate your neighbor banging on the wall!!!! That is awful! We can hear our neighbor's kid (not baby) screaming and crying all the time and we NEVER bang on the wall. Goodness! Hope things get better for you asap!

So sorry today was such a rotten day....glad noone was hurt in the accident. Try to relax for the rest of your evening and hopefully your tomorrow will be a much better day!! God Bless;)

I am sorry you have had such a rough day. Try and relax.

I am so sorry you had such a cruddy day. I hope a good night's sleep will bring you to a much better day.

How bad is your car? You and Amelia must have been ok - I sure hope so

Awww I'm sorry....hugs to you both, I'm glad you weren't hurt.
