Impact

When you're going through any kind of a breakup - you have good days and bad days

You have times where things that shouldn't affect you do and things that should bother you don't

There may even be things that sneak up on you that you never thought would impact you like they do

An impact to take your breath away

An impact to stop in your tracks

Even an impact to bring a tear to your eye

Today I needed to do a quick run to the Dollar Store and to Walmart - I went alone so I could blast my music and be by myself

I began making my way towards the register and the aisle that was directly in front of me was where all the cards were

Christmas cards

Ones for mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, grandparents, and husbands

Husband - such a funny word

Of course, out of all the cards I laid eyes on the ones I saw had to be the husband section

Which was hilarious in itself because usually I am struggling to find a good husband card - this year it seemed they had more of those than anything else

Then I ran to Walmart to get something to make for dinner tonight - something that starts with a crunch and ends with a wrap

And although the action itself didn't seem to bother me too much - seeing all the couples shopping for Christmas and the wives buying their husbands and children things and the husbands buying their wives things - I'm not going to lie it was depressing

Then I was almost home when the unimaginable happened...the golden Toyota corolla was traveling down the hill in my direction

I knew all too well who it was - for hubcap reasons and all

That was about the last straw I could take today

Thankfully that was the end of my journey for the day - but those couple hours were definitely all I had in me for traveling out and about today

Looking at the outside we made sense - Taco Bell, classic cars, horror movies and more - but...I guess we didn't make as much sense as I once thought we did

Stay safe out there && as always, I appreciate ya!
