7/28

hi guys, my day started off pretty good. i got all my requirements done in the morning and then just hung out with my sister. i had a shift from 3-7 and i couldn't find any parking near my regular spot so i parked somewhere different, then this is where my day starts going bad. i'm right about to end my shift and clock out and it starts POURING rain. i hate driving in the rain but i'm like "its ok nothings gonna happen" i walk out to my car and what do i see. a shopping cart. so i walk closer and it's FLIPPED OVER on top of my car. so i'm assuming the wind and rain smashed that cart onto my car. but i roll away the cart to assess the damage and now there's a dent and like 5000 scratches and my front bumper is messed up. i started panicking and crying, obviously, and then i face timed my dad and i was SO SCARED yall dont understand. and i got home and my parents looked at my car and just started telling me there's nothing we can do about it and just make sure not to park around that spot again. i'm SO irritated at the rain and the cart omg. anyways now im gonna cry for the rest of the night cuz my baby's been damaged ugh i'm devastated ☹️☹️
