There are various emotions that one rarely experiences, I suppose the mind tries to analyze what is happening when the control does not appear to be working. I would imagine it was very slippery everywhere, quite a lucky escape, makes a good story though.

I know exactly what you mean about the difficulty describing how you felt after the car landed. I don't panic either but I've certainly been disoriented for a moment and that can bring senses so sharply into focus while they all settle back to normal and your brain puts the pieces together - amazing how that all happens in a nanosec but it seems like slow motion. Again, your description had me right there with you....glad you brought us a warm jacket!

I imagine that I myself would have been panicking. I tend to be a worry wort even at times when it is not necessary...I wonder how long it took to get help.

Wow. I am glad you warned me ahead of time that you were really doing the talking. Don't worry about my believing I may hear you from Hades. No way. If I have the way the Lord wants you will never go to Hades. Nobody dies and you do not want to spend a long time without any books to read or adventures beyond your imagination. I am glad you are fine. I want to know the rest. At first I thought you had gone to sleep driving and this was a dream but I guess it was real.
