Can you believe that in a time of sheer crisis, a Ford Focus got me around town without any problems? When my insurance provided me with the car, I was like, “are you serious? A Focus?” But I eventually settled into the car and it became my way of life. The little burgundy treasure never caught fire or caused me any trouble. I just returned it, nearly 40 days after my car was totaled due to an electrical fire. I can’t believe I don’t have a car; this entire situation has been a nightmare. Since this scenario started, my son has had two ear infections and I’ve worked an average of 6 days a week. And now I don’t have a car. I am so stressed out! How am I supposed to function? I might be able to borrow a car until BMW replaces my car, but that’s not a guarantee. I really hope BMW doesn’t disappoint my family.
If this situation has taught me anything, it’s to never take anything for granted. What you have today can be gone tomorrow. I know it’s cliché, but when such a huge loss happens to you–it smacks you in the face and it doesn’t seem so trite. Simple things like going to the grocery store to put food on the table now seem like an impossible task. I have a baby and no car. His undeveloped immune system should not need to be exposed to all those people on the bus. And yet, I don’t have a choice.
AND how am I going to get him to daycare? I hope BMW fixes this!
