Pro's and Con's to a New Job

PRO: Having a wonderful job that earns extra money
CON: Leaving a cuddly baby at the sitter's house in the morning

PRO: Having time to listen to Matt Chandler's podcast in traffic
CON: Being rear-ended while listening to Matt Chandler's podcast in traffic

PRO: Having a husband who works for the FD & can make "house" calls in the utility truck to accidents on I-45
CON: Having the other fireman jokingly ask me if I need a C-Collar once they see I am ok

PRO: Getting to miss a day of work
CON: Popping ibuprofen to help mask the whiplash soreness for the next three days

PRO: The car is repairable - in fact, a new bumper will solve all problems
CON: Do I look like I have time/energy to devote to getting car fixed?!?

PRO: It was not nearly as bad as it could have been
CON: This was the 4th time I have been rear-ended! What the heck, people?!?

THE BIGGEST PRO OF ALL: Dash was NOT with me!

Wow... that's like a twisted Dr. Seuss story with several surprises - hope you have photos of the fire brigade coming to the rescue, high five Tyler! Ditto on not have Dash in the car. Good luck getting it all resolved - car repairs are never fun, especially when you've got a family of 3 all headed different places in the morning.
