my mom

How's your mom doing now?

well... last Friday she called me in the morning to say that she had been in a car accident the night before. Apparently, she decided in the evening that there was some item at a store somewhere in Sunnyvale that she required and decided to make a go at it. It was dark and rainy and she got lost. While trying to find a recognizable road home, she rear-ended someone. She said she's Ok as is the other driver. Their car wasn't damaged and they drove home. Her airbags didn't deploy, but the car want drivable and got towed away. The nice officers on the scene gave her a ride home, but she needed to get to her car in the wrecking yard before the weekend to get her belongings. 

I spent the morning trying to figure out how to get her from Cupertino to Sunnyvale and back. 

Now, I'm busy w/insurance and softly trying to suggest that she doesn't need a car (the struggles of getting her to the wrecking yard and back say otherwise). 

I guess we're muddling thru.
