To catch up on things:
I received word Friday the 18th that my car was a total loss (I KNEW there was more than just $2,500 damage on it), a sizeable check would be given to me that day, and I would be responsible for the rental car if not returned post haste (Wednesday of last week).
I've never felt "obligated" to purchase a car before. But I was clearly being pressured to return the rental car or I would "be charged the remainder of the bill". Not having a car for me to get to work is not an option. I was given a check that day by an adjuster that came to my house after work to retrieve the title and was told again about the rental car. He also told me to "go see a doctor" even though he was on the car side of things I was complaining about my neck and back and told me it was important to get it looked at NOW. (but that's not his thing so don't quote him, heh)
So on that Saturday, I deposited said check that, just for the car, was for enough money I didn't have room to complain at all. I then proceeded to look all day and night for a car and did not find one. I then looked all Sunday without the hassle of the used car salesmen, but it was the first time ever I wished they were open so I could buy one. I took off work Monday and looked again, hitting possibilities I found Sunday. With the light waning on another day without a car I just up and bought one, a 2007 Dodge Caliber with 49k miles, and signed the check. I didn't even care much for the car, and I didn't even haggle with the guy. I felt so bad and wanted it all to just end. (see below)
As for my neck and back, they are sore all the time and even hurt quite a bit sometimes. I'm going to a doctor soon, but I have so much going on right now I don't know when I will have the time. That and I'm suffering what I would self diagnose as clinical depression. *sigh* Too much shit going on I guess. Such is life tho I guess.
Anyway, thanks for the kind thoughts you guys. I hope you all can by-pass ever having to deal with this shit. It sux.
As an epilogue to my tale of sadness, my new car was broken into last Friday while I was in Houston with my entire family on my mom's side (an annual family reunion). They busted out the glass in a rear door and stole a backpack my daughter had left in there. Which caused us to spend a good portion of black Friday shopping for a new window in Houston and then canceling my daughters bank account since her checkbook was in the backpack. *double sigh* _________________ For with what measure you measure it will be measured to you.
