JJ’s accident keeps on with its repercussions. Not only did Dani lose her vehicle, but JJ will be out of pocket for getting the car towed and then likely have increased insurance premiums. Now, there are repercussions for us too.
As you know, we loaned our ancient, 2010 car, Hermione the Honda, to Danica to help her get to her final exams. It was a nice thing to do, but they say that no good deed goes unpunished, and they appear to be correct.
Danica hit a road hazard on the expressway, or the road hazard hit her. I am not sure which, but she was fearful that she had blown a tire. Thankfully, she hadn’t. That would have been frighteningly awful on that busy, urban highway.
Unfortunately, on the weekend, we saw that there was some damage near the passenger door: a bit of a dent and loose molding.
I took Hermione into the auto body shop just around the corner. She’s a 2010 model with many scratches and scrapes, so we just want to keep her functional. There is no way that the car needs to be restored to pristine condition.
The estimate is $200 to refasten the molding. We’re getting off easily compared to what could have happened. Nevertheless, it appears to be very true about good deeds and their subsequent punishment.
Yikes...so sorry that all these chain reactions seem to be happening. Accidents happen, and then we have to live with all the repercussions.
ReplyDeleteI'm really sorry to read this. Poor all of you. On a lighter note, I say this to Gatto on a daily basis. I let him in and he causes lots of trouble.
