Spooky thought...
So, you all know that I'm driving a little over an hour to my new job training, right...Well, it's coming to a close (Friday being my last trip). Everyday that I drive TO Augusta, there are little memorials for people who must have died due to some sort of crash or mishap along the highway. There must be at least 20 along the way. There is even one where the family members have rigged up lighting to shine on it during nighttime, too. There are flowers, ribbons, and one even has a helium balloon on it that makes me wonder how long it will stay inflated - maybe it was recently put there? Well, there is this one. It's really pretty. It's simple and white. Just a little white cross with a little creative woodworking on it, but simple. The scary thing is the three letters on it. All capital letters, all in large black letters...YOU. Every time I drive by it I try not to look at it as if it's a premonition or something. Then I get my senses back and just assume that maybe the letters stand for someONE - Yolanda Ortho Unez or something...Whoever put it there sure makes me want to drive careful, defensive, not take any chances...It's a spooky thing to be driving past it and reading YOU on this little cross...I wonder if someone is 'paying it forward' and making me a little cross BEFORE I need it? But I WILL be needing it???
Okay, maybe I'm just tired and reading a little too much into things...But the one good thing is that it makes me think about my driving - in a good way. So, someone is making a difference by putting it there even if it isn't for me!
Food for thought...

Your little car goes 120, so if you go 90, then you won't be going 120 and reading the signs. Slow down and smell the flowers in the median...or is that "medium" (que spooky music)
