Right Between the Eyes

So some of you a week or so ago were wondering why I had a big fat bandage on my forehead and a couple black eyes. Well here's the story:
We have a huge door to our shop that semi's used to drive in and when you open it if you don't hold the rope it will go all the way to the ceiling, impossible to reach. So anyway two Tuesday's ago Jeremy was running late for work so he asked if I could shut the shop up. I said I would, besides I was gonna be able to drive the Corvette into the shop.(sweet!!) Anyway, I grabbed Memphis thinking he would love to ride in the car with me so I set him down in the passengers seat and we drove in the shop. I left him in there while I grabbed a garden rake(you know the one with the metal prongs)to pull the shop door down.. I stretched the rake up, hooped it in the rope and pulled as hard as I could to pull the door down. All of the sudden it broke and I looked up thinking shoot now it's gonna be stuck up there, and boom!!! right between the eyes!!! Blood gushed out so I ran inside dialed Jeremy's cell phone, handed Madison the phone and told her to tell her dad to come home and take me to the hospital.
Needless to say I ended up with 7 stitches and couple black eyes. I'm all healed now and you can barely tell it happened. It could have been so much worse.... I could have been holding Memphis.....The prongs could have hit me.....A few inches to the right and it would have been my eye....God is so good at protecting us from serious damage huh????
