My daughter was in a car accident yesterday. She was turning left on an unprotected green. The car is most likely totaled. BUT MY KIDS ARE OK. I get that. and then, I settle in and think what the heck. We can't afford another car. We can't afford to get it fixed. We can't afford the insurance hike if we were to make a claim. We try so hard to be responsible with our money and sometimes I feel like - for what.
