This week is moving week.

This week is moving week.

In order to be ready for the move. We needed both my car and Judy‘s car to drive those things that are not going on the moving van. Not to mention Bendix, and we ourselves!

The biggest issue with that is that my car was T-boned the first Sunday in May. And has been in the body shop ever since.   Even though I let the people fixing the car understand that I had to have the car back no later than 11 July, the work dragged on and on and on and on.

In fact, we were not able to pick up the car until this Friday at 4:30 in the afternoon. Talk about getting it just under the wire!  We do not seem to do things in simple ways around here.

Those of you who follow me will recall that this is a new car. That is, new to me. It is a 2014 model, that we found in Rochester, New York, with the help of our nephew, from whose car dealership we bought it. We owned it exactly 2 weeks, when the accident occurred.

Here's how it happened...

Mom and I were on our way to worship at Shadyside Presbyterian Church, when as we went through a green light at the intersection of N. Negley Ave. and Stanton Avenue, were T-boned. The other driver had run the red light. We were fortunate that no one was injured. I later learned that this particular model gets a five out of five for crash safety. I believe we would not have fared as well had we been in my old car.

So now, all we have to do is wait for the movers to pack up the house. 

And then we will head for Florida.
