Good morning, everyone...<br /><br />I am back, a little the worse for wear, still VERY sore and down in the dumps about having to find<br />another vehicle but glad to be alive.  I can&#39;t seem to get warm enough.  54 hours without power and<br />shivering for all those hours sure made a grump out of me.  No matter how many blankets how many blankets I piled on, I had the shakes - probably as much from my close call as from the actual temperatures.<br />I&#39;m off today and tomorrow, still waiting to hear from the insurance company about payment but it won&#39;t be much.  Have to talk to the credit union about financing.  <br /><br />The pictures of the car are in &quot;Carmen&#39;s near death experience&quot; - it doesn&#39;t look too terribly bad but<br />the auto body pace totaled it.<br /><br />Glad to be around to cruise again, that&#39;s for sure.<br /><br />
