GRRRRRR! That about sums up how I feel right now!!! So today has been full of running around trying to get things read to head up north tomorrow after Todd gets off work. We had to run out to my moms, about 25 minutes from here to get some dog tie outs that she had, and since we were so close I had to go to my in laws to drop off a set of keys to the house. (I gave one to my parents, and since they only live 5 miles apart, I had to run one over to the in laws too!) Then we were on our way home, on the highway, and I hear this CRACK. It sounded WAY louder. So I started to scan my windshield, and sure enough, the truck that had just zipped in front of me kicked up a large rock, and created a CRATER in my windshield. Not only that, but it had nice little spider cracks coming off of it. AND WE ARE LEAVING TOMORROW ON A 4-5 hour drive!!! I can't have a cracked windshield for that! Cause what if we get hit by a tiny rock, in the same spot. . .and it shatters? Then we're screwed because we're 4 hours from home, in the middle of no where.
So, I came home, filed the insurance report, and all fingers crossed, they'll be fixing it tomorrow morning, and we're leaving tomorrow afternoon!! It'll be close, but should be do able!!!
Here's a cell phone picture of the crack.
That's a standard drive through napkin behind it so that it could be seen. (I have a stack of them in the car because I refuse to be without something if we need something, so I always keep the napkins!) You can't really see the full size of it on there, but you can see how big the
divot is, and then imagine the spider crack all the way to the right, as long as the napkin.

Have I mentioned lately that I'm done with being an adult???? Sigh.

Yep, this whole adult thing is a crock.
Hope they got it fixed for you.
OH NO! That sucks! Hope you got it all taken care of quickly! UGH! I hate it when rocks go flying and end up hitting your windshield..then you gotta get new stickers(in TX), etc. It drives me CRAZY!
Hope everything turned out ok!
