car crash

[alexseanchai]

I'm okay. Other driver's okay. Our cars are not okay but Dad says he can fix mine and my insurance will doubtless pay to fix other driver's. I'm shook up good, though, still shook up nearly four hours later, and I got ticketed for "failure to remain stopped", and I owe the city money and I owe somebody else money for the tow and another somebody for repairs though I'm not clear yet who these somebodies are.

Thank fuck I have emergency money.

Hugs? Reassurance that I can rebuild emergency fund and that my car will be fine and that the world is not about to end?

(How in hell do I tag an email post? I know I have instructions somewhere but apparently I forgot to star them in Gmail...or possibly they're in the old Gmail...)

Glad you're ok. Car crashes are scary. This is what emergency funds are for, and you built it once, you can rebuild it.

*warm drinks and being kind to yourself*

Hugs. Thanks.

Being shaken is normal.

[alexseanchai]

I figured, but still.

Thanks.

That must be feeling horrible in so many ways. Sympathies. :( I hope you can find lots of ways (and that those around you find lots of ways) of being good to yourself right now and in the next while. So glad that everybody's unhurt, and yes, of course you'll be able to rebuild the emergency money!

I have tea and ice cream. It is good.

Thanks.

I am glad that you are physically okay, I am sorry to hear about the car. For me, it was important to get out and get back to driving quickly, although I was very cautious thereafter, at least for a while.

And yes, you will be able to rebuild your emergency fund - you've already built it once, this means you're now a pro at it. ;)

Nod. Thanks.

Hugs, tea, sympathy. :(

Scary and stressful, but you're okay, and this is totally survivable. You have survived the worst part already.

[alexseanchai]

Hugs. Thanks.

Yow.

I'm sure you can and will recover in all respects.

But how horrid. :(

[alexseanchai]

Thanks.

You are okay, which is the important thing. You can rebuild your emergency fund, and this kind of thing is exactly what it's there for -- congratulations on your foresight (god knows I don't have much of an emergency fund). ♥

The somebodies will doubtless make themselves clear in time; you just focus on what you can deal with, starting with self-care, and take everything else as it comes.

[alexseanchai]

Thanks.

Oh my gosh! I'm so glad you're okay. Car crashes are always really scary. ::hugs::

Also of course you will rebuild your emergency fund! This is what it's there for, also--car crashes are like textbook emergencies.
