Short Story: I was in a car accident, just a block from home. Everyone is OK, and the car is drivable, but needs some work. Or just lots of duct-tape to hold in the still operating headlight and turn-signal.

Recently I was talking about how I don’t regret selling our second car and only having one. I may take that back. I’m doubtful repairs can be completed before the travel we were planning for Thanksgiving, and I can’t imagine trying to get a rental around the holiday will be cheap.

I can’t wait to see my rates go back up. It may also make sense to add the rental option to the insurance since we don’t have a backup.

Maybe I can just give up driving completely.
