This morning, I really didn't want to drag myself out of bed at 4:30. I did get up, turn the alarm, off, and then started feeling guilty b/c I skipped the gym yesterday and didn't feel as good. So, I got back up and headed out. I worked it out doing some abs and arms, climbed back into the car and headed back home. There is a red light a block from the gym. It was red. I was sitting there, FB-ing, checking tweets, checking my words with friends-my usual redlight stuff and caught green out of the corner of my eye, and put my foot to the pedal. I crossed half-way through the intersection before I realized. IT. WAS. STILL. RED. Thats right, people, I got so distracted by Facebook, that I ran a redlight that I was actually stopped at. 3 cars came through the intersection after I did...God was watching over me this morning. I immediately threw my phone down and vowed that nothing was more important than( even beating my brother in law at words with friends) my safety in a car. WHAT IF the girls had been with me? WHAT IF those cars would have hit me? All because I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings and playing on my phone. It was super scary and quite the eye opener. So, if you see me around, I'll be sure to have my blue tooth on, and no texting while driving! FB can wait too!!!
