Meeting Wynonna

This is my first blog post. I must say that Google makes this very easy for anyone to have their own blog and to get started writing. It is a wonderful thing. It is 4:49 in the morning.

 I woke up so early this morning that my dog and cat didn't even try and get me to feed them, just went back to bed themselves. I am really loving being married to Dale, loving the house that we live in next to the park and living in Franklin.

I have a few new friends and even met Wynonna Judd yesterday. She was in an accident that I happened to witness. She was just driving her daughter to go shopping for school clothes and she was stopped to let another car turn. Another car driven by an older woman plowed into the back of her. I pulled over immediately and got out of my car to help and realized it was Wynonna. I found out no one was seriously injured although both women were shaken. I called 911 and within 5 minutes an ambulance, police and firetrucks arrived.\

Wynonna was most concerned to see if the other driver was injured. There was some blood on the other drivers hands and her arms were beginning to bruise from the airbags. Wynonna got her out of her car and we put her in my back seat. Wynonna was very calm and down to earth. I noticed that she wore no makeup and that she has very beautiful skin. We talked a while about our daughters and I told her about my recent move to Franklin.

About this time, my husband Dale drove past and saw my car. He was at first alarmed that I had been in the accident and then releaved when he saw I was okay. He didn't even notice Wynonna and I introduced him to her. She told us of her favorite restaurants in Franklin and we chatted very casually about our daughters. I realized after I left her that I should have given her my name and contact information or at least gotten a picture. Honestly, she felt like an old friend who I'd known forever. I hope I see her again because I feel like she is part of my future life in some way.
