Quick update on our car




I didn't take a picture of the actual damage, but here is what it looks like after being partially dismantled by the repair guys. They said it should take a week. That's it! We'll see when they actually call us to pick it up.
I suppose our tax return will come in handy to cover the deductible. Don's always very prompt to get our taxes done. No procrastinating on that one. Every year I get hounded by him to get my translating business info together. I was good this year, I asked him to lay off until Janurary 15th, and I would have it ready for him if he let me be.
I tend to be resentful or pit myself against it, if I'm forced to do something.
I'm pretty sure I was one of the first in line in the pre-mortal life to vote "yes" to keeping our free agency! Tell me I can't do something, and I'll prove you wrong and tell me to do something and I just won't. I can think for myself and make my own decisions. I have trouble with blind obedience and controversial orders. I like to know the why of things. Even when I disagree, a "why" makes it so much easier to understand and obey if the case may be. I had a hard time with that sort of attitude when I was on my mission. One of my mission presidents like to issue "rules" and I passed for a rebel because I resented him so much for not giving reasons for apparently unnecessary restrictions. That's probably why my dear husband says I have a problem with authority.
After rereading what I wrote I have a feeling that this blog might serve for more personal introspection than I expected. Read at your own risk!!!
