losing control

the other day around noon I planned to go somewhere. I got into the pickup with my sister and we started off. We had not gone far when the driver of the vehicle, (me) lost control on the slippery road, and into the ditch we went. When it was finished, the pickup was at a ninety degree angle with the road. We ran home to tell our parents of our plight and then started over.

When you are out of control there is not much you can do. {duh!}
