Backed into a foot high pole that I didn't see

I still remember the sound it made. I have nightmares about it everyday.

^^Didn't mean to 'sand'...I was using the green side of the sponge to get the glue off and rubbed through.

Woops.

Recently, I was coming home from work second shift, it was dark, I park right along my house and only a small flower bed separates the house from the driveway. I backed in a little too over zealously and scraped my rear on my house.

I blame it on the dark tint and reversing at night when anyone asks me about it. It's not a large scrape i'm going to grab some touch up paint for now.

I remember that too.

I got a little too impatient when rolling/pulling my rear fenders. End result is no paint on the inside lip and cracking paint.
Then I came home from work one day to find my daughter and her friend washing my car with a scotch brite pad. Her intent was good, but she missed on the delivery a bit.

Hard to get upset with her, she thought she was doing a good thing. In the grand scheme of life a few scratches that can be buffed out are a small price to pay for her doing what she thought would make you happy.

I wish I had kids.

As BD said. As upset as I was, she didn't know better. Luckly it was only the hood (which stuck out like a sore thumb on hot summer days). I do remind her of her "good deed" and we laugh about it now. Needless to say I pass on current offers from her to wash my vehicle.....I

That's awesome, how old is she? You guys had a moment that will stay with you forever. When she's 40 you'll still look back at this and laugh your azz off.
