Well, the truck is not getting fixed. At least not just now. It's a bigger job than we thought and the neighbor doesn't want to try to do it in his driveway. So, at least I know and will deal with it later.
My daughter's surgery is tomorrow.
Can't afford to have a meltdown over the truck! I had a cry and that will have to do for now. Not looking forward to driving the highway in the dark, in a car. Several years ago I was driving the same stretch of highway in my Chevy Blazer when a herd of deer decided it was a good time to run across the road! I hit one of them doing about 60 mph! Was able to get home before the truck gave out. It took the impact and I was shaken up but not hurt. Had I been in a car, it would have been a different story. I phoned the police who determined which town needed to be contacted. They found the deer, dead on the shoulder of the highway. At least it didn't suffer.
So, as you can see, my upset isn't so much about the repair needed, it's anxiety about driving that part of the highway in a car. She will be in the hospital for a minimum of 2 days, so that's at least 3 trips in the dark! Ugh.
As if stressing over her surgery wasn't enough!
