Oh no, not again ..... : Nov 22, 2010
Just got rear-ended on the highway while waiting at a red light. The guy was running from the DPS and hit me going 60-80 mph. It stripped my driver's seat from the track and broke the gears in it. My car is fixed now, but my back and neck and left knee have a long way to go. The docs think I may be able to go back to work by February, 2011.
On an up note, my wife and I just opened our custom design jewelry business. We are specializing in rare and exotic colored gemstones other than diamonds that can't readily be found in chain jewelry stores. WE officially open with our booth at the Festival of Lights in Smithville on December 4th. Look for the Purple Parrot Studios booth on Main Street. Ciao for now. Stan.
