This Saturday marks the 1 year anniversary of the unobservant, neglectful woman who almost ran over Jordan and DID run over his motorbike to the point of bending the frame. Jordan got a call from the lawyer today and, without going to court, it looks like we're settling for $17589.08. Up to $11k of that will go to pay the medical leins the hospital ( Read more... )

The latest drama with the other woman's insurance company is that they had to re-assign our claim a new insurance adjuster because the old one was not responding to the lawyer's phone calls. The other insurance has run out of time because their first adjuster used it all up (and they've been taking the MAX time to respond to anything). They've ( Read more... )

Just a quick update on things... because I haven't written anything in a while.

I failed at trying not to be a grumpy-gus this weekend, and I kept going between devil-woman and ( Read more... )

I've been keeping mum about motorbike accident stuff because I haven't really had the energy to talk about that. Firstly, it's still frustrating to know that one day everything is going fine and then in a single moment someone's random mistake/neglect can so suddenly and completely eviscerate the little joy out of life that we had going on for a ( Read more... )

I know people are trying to relate to Jordan's motorbike travesty from yesterday, but if you could please save your vehicle crash stories for another day my sanity and I would greatly appreciate it.

I don't know why post titles sound more interesting when you just list three things. Three things that can have a completely unique story. This story starts out with a backpack ( Read more... )

As I was in the office typing the last entry in my LJ, Jordan screamed "Oh, No!" from the kitchen. I stopped typing and ran out there to see what was going on ( Read more... )
