Palmer Thanksgiving

The Saturday after Thanksgiving, the Palmers got together and partied it up! We had the whole Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey, rolls, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes and of course...PIE!
We had a pie contest. There were lots of really good pies. The winner was the Oreo Cream Pie...the one I made. I won! :) After the food was all eaten, we did some skits on Thanksgiving and being grateful. Then we all played some volley ball! It was a fun day. :)

Life gave me a BIG lemon...

I was in a car accident. I was coming into Gentry to see my mom and I remember looking to my left real quick to see if my old boss was at work. I looked back at the road and then changed radio stations. I passed out because the next thing I remember was someone calling my name and holding my neck. I was in shock and had a concussion. I was the lady who was talking to me what happened and she told me I was hit by a car. Then I asked her why. What happened was when I passed out, there was a car next to me and she hit me on the drivers side and swung me around completely till I was facing the opposite direction. They took me to the hospital and did ex-rays and a bunch of other tests. Nothing broken. I hit my head and left ear on the side window. The airbag did explode and I was wearing my seatbelt. I'm really sore and I went to the Chiropractor and he said I have severe whiplash and my jaw is out of place. I'm going to have to go back 3 times a week for a while.The person calling my name was a nurse who was driving behind me. I found her on Facebook and asked her a couple questions. She said that before she could get her car in park, her husband jumped out and ran to my car and put it in park before I went anywhere else. The wreck happened right in front of a retired firemans office. He was the one holding my head and the nurse was the one calling my name. She said when she first got to me, it looked like I was having a seizure. She said I was out of it for a good 30 minutes and then I was in and out of it for about 10 minutes while we waited for help. I don't remember any of this of course so I'm glad she told me all this.
