Thank you for your words and time. I had a very hard day yesterday and for some reason, finding your comment today mattered a whole hell of alot! You made me laugh. Especially about the car! Too funny! I would love to have a house in Vermont, but can't find an affordable one. All the rich people from NY are living there! Have any inside info? <BR/><BR/>Love you and thanks for the laughs. I can't tell you how much I appreciated your comments. Please come back, I need people like you to make my life happy! <BR/><BR/>XO<BR/><BR/>This is the only place to leave this message.

Sorry about your car.<BR/><BR/>Way back when Mrs. Skeeter was pregnant, she drove my little Toyota pickup down to Dallas to visit some of her friends. She drives a little faster than the average bear, and an ice storm developed while she was there. She totaled the pickup, but came through it all unhurt, but we were holding our breath until a few months later she had our son. All was well.<BR/><BR/>You've had a full life these last few months!

I came back on here to look, and I didn't see it, so I retyped a slightly different one because I couldn't remember what I had typed before. And yes, I did put the keyboard on the floor both time and let her step on it a couple of times, so that is actually her typing with maybe a little bit of editing done by me. BUt the message is still the same from me and from her. Because the people I care about is also the people she cares about because she cares about me.

Worry about you and get...Mark,<BR/><BR/>Don't worry about me. Worry about you and get well. I suffered depression for a few years because of chronic pain in L.A. It was horrible. Fortunately I had a wonderful phychologist at Cedars Siani. He's now also a professor at UCLA. Dr. S. saved my life. I truly believe that. I had never known that sort of darkness and he managed to get me out. My accident, the hospital visit, pale in comparison, so honey, don't worry about me. I'll be fine. Worry about you and get well. It is a journey and if you have the proper help you'll find your way. Trust me. I've been there and I'm sure many of us have. It's just something you have to wade through in order to find the other side. And you will. My depression has always been related to pain, so it's pretty easy to fix if pain is eliminated. I don't know what triggers yours, but just remember there is always an underlying factor and once that's resolved, depression usually goes away. I was never able to take meds, or anything like that to resolve my depression because I don't do well with meds, I simply had to find my way. And I did with the help of a remarkable doctor. <BR/><BR/>I don't think you suffer from depression, recover from and <BR/>and survive depression without thinking of everyone else who suffers. I love you Mark, you know that. Seek counciling. It's amazing how much it helps. And when you find someone who suffers, always support them. <BR/><BR/>I love you dear.<BR/><BR/>XOSuzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111045716713716292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525340858239216146.post-3642010934766844952008-05-23T23:35:00.000-07:002008-05-23T23:35:00.000-07:00Suze, don't worry about the whiskey, I will have a...Suze, don't worry about the whiskey, I will have a shot for you...you go out and smell the Roses and try to relax a little.<BR/><BR/>I am so sorry about your car, but am glad you are doing ok.

I swear to God, you are having more trouble than a one-armed juggler on a uni-cycle! <BR/>Very sorry to see the pics of your beautiful BMW looking so sad ;(. Gotta agree with Inner Voices - it's worth getting several estimates to see if she's fixable. She's a very pretty car and worth the effort to repair her, I reckon. Unless the chassis is kaput.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad that you and the other driver, Joanna are ok and have only had to deal with with the shock and the hassles with insurance etc.<BR/><BR/>I am going to call you Calamity Jane from now on.<BR/><BR/>And don't concern yourself about the whiskey. Even though it is before noon, Saturday I will have a coupla shots for you. All for a good cause!!<BR/>Cheers and beers, or in this case whiskey.<BR/>Mark.

Well I just went to your blog to see if you'...I.V. <BR/><BR/>Well I just went to your blog to see if you'd responded to my comment before responding to yours. I was there approximately 30 seconds. That's all. I refuse to cop to anything more. <BR/><BR/>Our beautiful 325. God, that car's been a champ. I love her color. Champagne. Would have easily run another 20 years because we treat her like a baby (aka, pour lots and lots of money into her beautiful body and soul). The repair is way more than the value of the car (because as you stated, here are lots in CA). The insurance will only pay the low blue book offer. It's pathetic, but true. If the repair is more than the low blue book, it's over. The repair is over $5,000. Hell, the bumper a few years ago was almost $2,000! It's insane and such a waste of an amazing car. There is no way that car can't be fixed properly, but unfortunately the insurance company will never pay for it when all they have to do is pay the low blue book offer to us in cash. I'm not a legislator, so I didn't write the rules. It's a horrible waste of a car. I know that car and know it could be whole in no time, but I'm just me and I don't make the decision even though I've paid for insurance for decades and deserve to have a say. <BR/><BR/>Our body shop is amazing. They're one of the best in Sacramento. They would never be able to buy the car. The rules dictate (if they're followed) that when the insurance co cuts us a check, they tow the car away and take it to a scrap yard for money. Our body shop has nothing to do with the transaction. They're simply a middle man. That's why the owner told us to take the new tires and anything else of value before the insurance co shows up to tow it away. We intend to buy another BMW, so the tires will work beautifully. It's funny because I was driving my rental to the park today and it's an automatic (the BMW's a standard shift and so much more fun) and was taking a tight turn and realized how different high performance tires are on a BMW. I take a turn and feel as if I'm attached to the asphalt with my BMW. I take a turn with the rental and feel as if I might end up in the next county! Not going fast! Woooooow nelly. <BR/><BR/>I wish everything was perfect and that our car was still our car, but it isn't. Rob has already detached himself, I'm still working on it. I looked at her this morning on the way to the rental to feed the ferals and said outload "I love you sweetie. I'm sorry." And I am sorry. I actually mean that. I would never wish this sort of fate on her. Never. She's been a remarkable car.<BR/><BR/>If you have any more advice, please don't hesitate to share your thoughts. You might know something we don't. Or even elaborate on this. You might know something I'm not thing of. Please don't hesitate. Throwing that car away seems like a complete waste. But we're dealing with the insurance company and that's a whole nother story baby! <BR/><BR/>Love you and thanks for your help. It's always welcome.<BR/><BR/>Love you dear,<BR/>Suz XOSuzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111045716713716292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525340858239216146.post-59193337807671906482008-05-23T15:29:00.000-07:002008-05-23T15:29:00.000-07:00Crikey.
