For Mom

Hi, Mom!  I know you read this often.  Sorry I haven't written much lately.

The car accident was four days ago.  Only two business days though, so I am still waiting to see what the insurance inspection of my car determines.  The guesstimate is that it is a "total loss" and then hopefully the other insurance company will accept liability and we'll make a settlement for the car and injuries.

If they find it repairable, it becomes a decision of how much it would cost to repair vs. potentially getting a new car anyway.  The good news is that it was already paid off.

The kids seem okay.  Your oldest granddaughter enjoyed being the center of attention at school sharing her story with the class at school and answering questions from her peers about all she experienced.  The highlights seem to be the accident with my window breaking and the car tire falling off, riding in a police cruiser, and meeting the firemen.

She seems to be doing well, but still complaining of a bit of a headache in quiet moments.  Might call her doc tomorrow about that.  It doesn't hinder her from normal activities though, that's a good sign.

Your youngest granddaughter got her teacher to give her a Band-Aid over the bruise she has from her seatbelt.  A Band-Aid worn quite proudly too.  :0)

My muscles remain quite sore when I'm not on pain meds, but I've been resting and not using them too much so they will hopefully heal sooner rather than later.  The hardest part is waiting for everything.  Waiting to hear from insurance companies.  Waiting for the pain to stop.  Wondering what the next step is going to be.  It's no fun to be waiting.  Love you!
