disklike object, missing time,and haunted memories.

Iwas on my way home from an oilfield where my husband worked.I glanced up into the sky and saw a disklike object. It was matalic  and had windows on the upper portion.  Inside the windows,I saw an orange glow. I immediately pulled off the road and I remember saying to myself oh my God they are real. The next thing I remember I was driving into my driveway and it was night.I saw an orange flamelike object in the sky,about the size of a basketball. I ran to get my husband which had just pulled into the drive. I pointed at the object and asked him if he saw what I saw. He said yes. We watched the object go from the size of a basketball to a point of light in seconds. I trully wish I knew what happened to me. It has haunted me ever since.I wish I knew where the missing time went. I have not been able to talk to anyone about this for fear of what they would think, but I swear it is the truth and it scares me.
