Not my time or to quote my daughter "God knew we needed you around a little longer" Then corrected it to "A LOT longer dad, a lot longer!"
Driving to work last week and was passing a flat bed truck hauling steel beams, when out of no where a white blob came flying at my face. (Later found out it was a bucket that was on the road) Swerved to the left to avoid the bucket and spun out on the loose gravel, I went under the flat bed far enough to dent the passenger side gas tank, then was in the median with the steering wheel in my hands. I still can see the underside of the flatbed but the next thing I knew was in the median kicking up dirt. How I got from under the truck when I was spinning towards the rear tires with out being run over is a miracle. Even the truck driver could not explain how that happened, he felt the back of his truck lift up and then I was not under his truck anymore.
Only physical injuries were some airbag burns on my right forearm, but mentally I am having a hard focusing so have not been out to the shop for a long time.
