    Default What a way to finish today

    My youngest son and I went to my #3 son's house for dinner and fun. We left for home at 10pm, as we were getting off the freeway the brakes failed on the car. We were lucky the light turned green and the cars started to go. We went in between a truck and a car. We did not get hit or hit another car. Traffic was really bad too. My heart is still beating really fast. I can thank God for keeping us safe.

    Yes I'm out of my mind. It's a dark and scary place in there.
