Problems Resolved

I was finaly able to resolve a problem with my blogging software, and a couple of postings that I THOUGHT had posted are now posted for real. 


In One Second....

It's the friday before memorial day weekend, 2 days before Steve's 41st birthday. I've planned a busy weekend, a trip to West Virginia on Saturday for a visit to the Fiesta Ware Outlet, and some slot machine action at the Wheeling Island casino, with Sunday spent celebrating Steve's birthday, probably dinner at our favorite sushi place, and cake at home. To start the weekend, we decide to go out for dinner, before coming back home and relaxing after a long week of work. We are 2 blocks from the house, and about to turn onto the main road when all the plans we've made for the weekend, and indeed for the rest of the summer, are changed for us in one horrible second. 

I saw the car out of the corner of my eye before Steve did. I had just enough time to yell his name before the front end of the Cavalier made contact with the drivers side door of Steve's Focus. Then there was the crunch of metal, and shower of glass, and the acrid smoke of antifreeze and oil burning on the hot engine block.
