My muffler

Got a toothache, can't sleep. Decided its blog time.

I finally felt relaxed today. Not pushed, not overwhelmed, not rushed, not stressed....just easy going and easy flowing. No ball games, no car pooling-cuz the girl was sick, no real housekeeping to do---

So I actually remembered that it was the day to pick up the accident report--which I have been so curious about. Since I was dismissed, and had no information.
I was wanting to know how fast he was going when he hit me, and all the report says is "23 feet of skidmarks"...some help that is.

And that reminded me I had time to peek under my SUV, to check out the muffler--bec I knew it had been moved in the impact. A quick peek revealed that my bumper was melting from the muffler being stuck (more like jammed) to the bumper. Good thing I never went out of town!

So a call to their ins agency--got everything set--rental car for when i need it, check will be issued for wherever I choose to use for repair--medical taken care of--so next step is to get it inspected and get estimates.

Ofc, I made time to make a stop at the muffler shop---they couldn't unjam it, so they had to lift it, took some fire to it--my first time to see a torch being used on a car! Sweet! Had to bend it in two places, to get it to unjam. 20 bucks. Definitly affordable! Now driveable! So now I can drive to OKC Thursday without any worries of catching on fire.

This mom wears seatbelts. All times. I hope you do too!
