Okay, so here’s the thing. I ran over the dog in the driveway this afternoon. She didn’t die but it is still not quite clear whether or not she’ll keep her leg. She is in a 24 hour emergency care facility for the night.
My mother witnessed the whole thing and had a complete breakdown on the gravel and in front of my kids. The children were screaming. The dog was writhing and my mom was yelling and flailing her arms. Bad scene.
Were it not for the NaBloPoMo this would be the sort of night I would tuck it in and lick my wounded soul.

Oh, Heather, I am so sorry! (((Hugs))))
Yeah, me too.
I did that once with even worse results. Luckily my boys weren’t home. It’s one of the few times in my life I ever lied to them.
I’ve had a lot of bad days – that was almost at the top of the list for a long time.
Accidents happen; the dog had the habit of sleeping under my rear wheel but still I should have remembered to check.
