The brown car is totaled. Stupid insurance company doesn't know my daddy. Hopefully we will be able to start car shopping on Friday. If nothing else we can start looking and pricing.
Also found out yesterday that the trip was a wasted one, that ended in a wrecked car. The radiator he picked up doesn't fit the truck. So not only is the truck still broken down, we wound up with a wrecked running vechile for nothing.
So I shed a few tears for the memories that the car held. We would've had the car for 16 years in Dec. I took my driver's test in that car, as well as it followed the band bus many a time during my 4 years of high school!!! So I'm sad to see it gone because it was still a good car.
But I'm happy because I'll have a new car sooner than planned. Which will make car seat installs easier, and I won't be getting rid of the car I bring my baby girl home in, as quickly. But right now I'm having a hard time letting go. It may have been just a car but it was like a part of the family. My mom drove it for almost 16 years, I drove it for almost a year, my dad drove it for almost a year, and my husband had driven it for almost a year.
