Odd things that happen in our lives some times
Did you ever look up the meaning of your name?
I just had something rather weird happen.I know I have looked up my name before but I didn't remember what it meant so I looked it up again tonight. The thing was I found two meanings, but that wasn't the weird part.It was that the two meanings put together happened to be a screen name that I used for years and wasn't chosen due to any meaning of my name. It wasn't even me who came up with the name, at least not by myself.It was always my favorite screen name and have thought of using it on here but thought it would be silly to change my name on here at this point.
I just love finding odd things like that. I seem to find many odd things in my life that I wont get into at the moment.lol
So have you ever had a weird coincidence or other weird thing in your life?

OMG I'm glad you're ok. I thought that the dangerous part of a motorcycle was supposed to be when you're ridding? Good thing someone was around to help you.

Re: Odd things that happen in our lives some times
Over the weekend, I lost a friend of mine that I went to High School with. She was out on her 4 wheeler and under negotiated a turn and fell into a 5 foot deep ditch and the bike landed on her. She was with her 6 year old grandson. He went to get help and she was still coherent when they got there, but no one knew that she had shattered her ribs and it had pierced her heart. By the time they got her to the Hospital, the Doctors said there was nothing they could do and she passed. 53 years old. Too soon. Too sad. Im going to the funeral in the morning. And the irony is that she had just fought a long Court battle to gain legal custody of her grandson because his parents were meth addicts. She only had him a week.

Re: Odd things that happen in our lives some times
Ah, Free, that is just so sad. Wow, don't even know what else to say.
Ash, hope you're feeling better today.
All of you, no, nope don't ever want to hear about any of ya crawling under your vehicles doing your auto maintenance, that is how I lost my brother.
I just can't stand to see some one laying uner their car even to change the oil, hubs use to do it himself but he understands that since the accident to just take the cars to the shop up the street.

Re: Odd things that happen in our lives some times
Thanks guys. I found out things about her at the funeral that I didnt know about her. She was a more amazing girl than I ever knew. The priest said that in the 6 years that he has been at that church, it's the first funeral he's ever seen that was standing room only.
