Fear

Yesterday morning I had one of the biggest scares of my life while driving to work. I was on the I-15, and the roads were bad because of snow. I hate driving in snow!! I saw in advance lots of red tail lights go on, so I braked. I wasn't too close to the cars ahead, but I guess I was braking too fast. I started swerving all over the freeway, and couldn't regain control. In the process I got turned around, and was continuing to swerve, but backwards. Several cars were coming at me, including a semi. All somehow miraculously missed me. I couldn't regain control until I backed into the median. I was hyperventilating for 1/2 an hour.

The car is pretty much OK, perhaps a few scrapes. But I got the willies when driving the same spot this morning (even though today the roads were fine).

Again, I hate driving in snow!

Oh my goodness Lisa. I never saw this post until just now. Wow. So, so, so glad you were safe. And that that semi didn't hit you. I love you. -Anna
