The rain was coming down in torrents! On the way to the study, I started to hydroplane a couple of times. My heart skipped a beart, but nothing too serious. However, it was much different on the way home. I'm not sure how fast I was going (our speedometer is not working), but the RPMs were well below 2000. I couldn't have been going more than 35 in a 55. Other cars were flying past me. In fact, there was car passing me when this happened.
There was a second where I truly believed we were going to hit the guardrail. I said ok God. The car is just a car, but keep Lily and I safe. I took my foot off the gas and didn't hit the brakes just like they teach you in driver's ed. We were sliding diagonally. I turned the wheel ever so slightly, the car started to veer into the left hand lane. We fish-tailed a bit, but soon we were heading straight again. We didn't hit anything or anyone.
