Reality

Mon, March 9 2009

4 days ago, while heading out of town with Wendy, I was caught between the trailer of a semi who had cut me off and a car in the passing lane. With nowhere to go, I had to swerve to miss the trailer which would ultimately do more damage. Luckily, no one was hurt and our auto insurance was up to date and they have been very cooperative. Unfortunately, I was informed today that our car is considered totaled. Trying to look at the bright side, insurance will pay off the remaining balance on the car and we’ll have a bit left over. However, when Ryan gets back, we will have to look for another car again. I feel like utter crap, you can bet but I know we’re lucky – that it could have been so much worse. Still, it really makes me grateful that we had insurance and I definitely have a greater appreciation for insurance whether it be car, home insurance, life insurance or whatever.
