One Second things change

I was tired but had to shop. David had work to do in the office. He offered to go to town for me. I told him "No I am fine, I will just be right back" (I really was tired)
As I backed out of the garage I heard a metal bucket sound, I thought, "oh that darn bucket was left behind the car". I looked at the car and thought "Oh well I am not hitting anything".
WRONG!!
.
When I stopped I got out and walked around the car. I wanted to throw up.
I walked to the door and told David, "I dinged the fender of my car" (almost in tears)
He said, 'How did you ding the fender?" Again " I just dinged the fender of my car"
Again "How did you do that?"
By now I was totally frustrated. I DID NOT KNOW HOW!!!!!
So he goes around to the car, We see the damage, We then search for the culprit.
The Freezer has Red paint flakes on it, Lots of red paint flakes. Again I am sick.
However the freezer is not even dented. It took the scraping and scraped my paint off. (car only)
:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
OK I am sad and I am stressed and I am mad at myself. How could I be so foolish?
David says, "Quit beating yourself up, that happens to all of us." Yeah but not me, I try to be observant. I pride myself on my driving abilities.

I chalk it all up to being sick and tired and stressed. I was not paying attention. I am getting bad at that. I ran a stop sign, (pretty as you please) I just ran it and never gave it another thought. I heard all the horns but I never even wondered why, until I had driven about a block. Then I thought "Oh Crap did I just run a stop sign" I could not remember stopping but things you do naturally you can be programmed for.
My mind has been on other things
I have to start focusing.
I have to call the insurance and have it fixed. I already have one estimate. I guess I will get another but I don't want a company that may not be here tomorrow. I want a stable company. Like Miller Auto Body, who does Great, Fast Body work. Guaranteed for life.
How bad? $1500.00 bad. Because they have to remove the front grill, and the entire front panel and mess with lights etc. Then a new paint job
Oh man I am stressed. Not a good day to have this on my mind.
I Have rolls to make and a luncheon to set up.
