It was scary driving to work this morning. I have to be extra careful as the roads were flooded and i want the kids to get to school safe and dry.
But sometimes, it is not up to us. We were hit by a car this morning along the CTE. . Linn was startled by the bump and immediately let out a cry. (Yes, she is a little dramatic). The guy came out of the car to inspect the damage. He assured me that there was no damage. I got out of the car in the pouring rain (after my umbrella refused to work) and checked to see if everything is ok. As I didn’t want to cause another traffic jam, we got back to our cars immediately. I should have taken his number as i discovered the damage only much later.
Linn was ok …she even asked me when i got back into the car ‘Is that your friend mummy?’ which made me want to laugh even though i was soaked wet.
We managed to get to school and work in very very bad road conditions.
I started to wonder if these freak thunderstorms exist in Sweden. At least, it is not cold here. I can imagine it being both cold and wet in Sweden…and how dreadful it will be. On the brighter side, we just make sure that we will be cuddled up together in a fireplace, toasting marshmallows and drinking hot chocolate during these times!
