Oh Deer...

Let me tell you a little story!
I was on my way home from work one morning.  It was about 6:30 in the morning and let's just say I was little bit on the sleepy side.  I was about home. Less than a mile away in fact.  Still dark outside. When I noticed that I was going about 10 miles below the speed limit (lucky me).  When I looked up from the speedometer, I hit SMACK into a doe.  
Oops.
Ya right!  That's not really what I was thinking.  It was more like, "AAAAAHHHH!! I think I just killed Bambi!"  My heart was pounding like a Polynesian slap dance!  Not to be morbid or anything, but I think I saw Bambi's leg go flying.  Luckily, she pranced off and I didn't have to drag her off the middle of the street.  
When I got home, I took a look at my car and my heart sank.  I don't know if I should be happy that I have a Saturn and it's basically made of plastic and cheap to replace or upset that it broke so easily.
The fender was basically gone and there was a big gash in the door.  If you look real close, you can see some of the fur that is still in the fender.
So, what happened?  Well, let's just say that I have the most amazing husband.  He found a match to the panel on the door, watched a few YouTube videos and replaced it!!!

He is incredible!  Not to mention that we had a small crack in the radiator so... he went to Auto Zone, bought a radiator and replaced it himself!  LOVE HIM!  
Wish that I hadn't hit a deer, but I am grateful for a husband who will take care my mistakes!  
Oh deer!
