She doesn't drive, but decided it couldn't be too hard. She put the gear in reverse instead of forward and backed into the big old (very old) stone wash-house and collapsed it. Oddly enough, the car was fine.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-51704968842688450312012-11-27T19:46:09.651-07:002012-11-27T19:46:09.651-07:00Our teenage daughter had a fender-bender and put t...Our teenage daughter had a fender-bender and put the bumper back on with twist ties:} What a child.

We went into the garage, got into the car, and she told me to put my foot on the brake. I did. Then she told me to put the car in reverse. Somehow it got stuck in "D" and lurched forward. She's screaming "brake, brake!" I pushed in the brake ("push" - now it would have been helpful if she'd used that verb when telling me about the brake in the first place) and we came to an abrupt stop. Up against the garage foundation. It took my dad a really long time to knock the garage back onto its foundation with the blunt side of the axe. True story. If you want to hear it firsthand you are welcome at my parents' house any time the family gets together. I'm told they regale strangers with this story when we're not there too. I'm pretty sure that's true. Always love my visits with you Diane!

Oh my goodness! The visual of both bumper mishaps had me giggling non-stop! And how considerate of Husby to laugh. I don't know many men who would have such a reaction, so you are indeed blessed! ha! But the bumper tied up with cable ties? Priceless! :)Bellahttp://gypsyroxylee.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-87851921028992722862012-11-27T15:07:25.277-07:002012-11-27T15:07:25.277-07:00Ahem, I'd like to thank all the people that ma...Ahem, I'd like to thank all the people that made this award possible....Jenhttp://www.jen-blessthismess.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-16623320345628012602012-11-27T14:51:27.479-07:002012-11-27T14:51:27.479-07:00There's one crown you can happily do without.There's one crown you can happily do without.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
