You Just Have To Be Grateful

Well, what a week it has been. It has been a hard one, but worth it, I guess. On Wednesday, I had a school dance, and that caused even more drama that I have to sort out. For the past weeks, I have been kind of depressed at school. I didn't like talking to pretty much any of my friends, and I was having a really hard time. Then, to make matters worse, at our Ward Christmas Party, I was kinda left out of the group with some great girlies, which I understand, because some things aren't meant for everyone to hear. So, I wanted to be brought home, but my dad couldn't. Later, I was with the same group of girls and Riley. [Of course, I was trying to remove Riley from that picture.] My mom came rushing to us and sounded mad. She told us that Connor had been in a car accident, and of course, I asked if he was OK. She said he was, but our car wasn't. She rushed off with someone in my ward to the scene. Then, it all just came down on me. I was freaking out, mostly at the time because we have lately been struggling with two cars, and one just wouldn't do. I was pretty much holding back tears until I got home, and I ran to my room and just let the water-works run free. I started BALLING! After a while, I had enough strength to go call my bestie, Abby. I started talking to her and I don't think she could even understand a word I said. I had such a hard time saying anything! Seriously, it was bad. I hardly got any sleep at all! The next day, Abby couldn't come to school, so that made things worse for me. All of the rest of my friends could see that I was not like normal, and finally at lunch break, I told three of my friends what happened, and I started crying again. They all gave me hugs and then, after weeks, I felt normal! Oh, and about the car situation, my uncle and aunt are letting us borrow their truck until our car is fixed. And that's the other thing! Wednesday afternoon, we went to the place where our car is, and they said they can most likely fix it because the damage isn't that bad. And our insurance will help us pay for most of the fixation fees. So, my life is back to being good!
