...so last week I was leaving in a big fat hurry, and as I was backing my enormously wide Tahoe(when you compare it to the VW Passat I used to drive) out of the 10 foot (my husband reminded me) garage door, I sort of tapped the drivers side mirror against the door as I backed out.....
....this resulted in a smashed mirror that was dangling by a cord from it's original position. The good news is that the blinker, which is on the mirror, still works, and I can still basically see out of it.....
...the bad news is every time I shut the door a little hard, it falls out and again resumes the "dangling by the cord position". Also bad is that I found out from the Chevrolet people that this mirror costs almost $1,000.00 to replace......
.......and to add insult to injury Carter was with me when it happened and now every time I start my vehicle he says, "Don't break something, Mama! Hold on Lilah!!"
Little Stinker!
I wish I could blame his smart mouth on his dad.
I Can't.
And you better believe my dad loves every second of it!

Apparently, Greg decided that my Tahoe might have the same fate with small garage doors...we have a 16 footer. I can park anywhere in the middle according to him. LOL
Bummer! I did that 2 weeks after we got our van! I've been driving 4 years now with a cracked mirror to remind me!
I did exactly the same thing, except I was driving along a road, and somebody had left something in the middle of the road which I clipped with my mirror.
Ok, it was a traffic cone....
and it was in a row of traffic cones......
protecting drivers from some roadworks......
But even so, what a silly place to leave it! :)
