Well, I got my car back today.
The far left side of the front bumper is missing. Makes me look like a maniacal driver! Also, the lower left of the license plate is folded up, do you can't see the little sticker stating the year I purchased my tags. Hope that doesn't get me in trouble.
There are things I didn't take care of, cause HEY! I'm not made of money! Neither is my mother! (hehe).
But I won't go into that here or now.
My Brother volunteered to get me back and forth ala work. Three days running he forgot about me and I was forced to call and remind him! You know I'd like to think that I could depend on him more, but avast, I cannot. I gave him a schedule and showed it to his wife and THEN I posted it on his refrigerator! He VOLUNTEERED!
$1000.00 the final tally.
I really got lucky.
Woulda been 2 grand but I didn't want to put that much into a thirteen year old car. So yeah, there's some things that still need work. But at least I can get back and forth to work! And around the twin cities again!
Then again, I could be dead. Yeah I was that scared. I cannot believe how well I handled this situation!
Emotionally,
Physically,
budgetwise,
Familywise.
Familywise. It happened XMAS eve and I refused to let it get me down and ruin everyone else's day. Oh, sure I wrote about here. Luckily only EGBERT was concerned. Thanks sir, for the support!
No one else seemed to care!
Hilda heard about the accident and lack of car and offered to instruct me in bus schedules. Then she wondered if I wanted a little comfort. (if you know what I mean!) At the time I said no cause there were too many people around and I didn't want to get hassled by anyone.
I'm thinking about it.
