On and On...

 

If you said, "A song by Stephen Bishop, 1976, from the album Careless," you get 50 bonus points.  If you said, "The saga of the hail storm and all the dealings that have transpired over the last two months," you are right on, but no bonus points.

I think we are getting close to wrapping up one part of that insurance claim: the Honda CR-V.  We were finally told that someone will be picking up the Honda today.  We have sent the title for it to Progressive, taken more photos of the title and the FedEX receipt, and sent that to them.  Now, we have just been waiting to hear from a local towing business so they can take it away.  Well, that and Progressive can pay us for the claim.

Just now (1:30 am), we got a call from my new friend Francisco, that he is on his way to pick up the Honda.  Another hour and a half and we should be able to move on from that.  AND, I will be able to have my phone block numbers it doesn't recognize again.

Francisco called us from the parking lot at the entrance to our community (where I told him it would be easier to load); we took the Honda down to him and watched him load it on his flatbed truck...

In the grande scheme of things, this has taken way more time than it ever should have; I put 80% of that on Progressive and 20% on the dumbass they sent out to do the evaluation.  Had we not stayed after them, it would still be going on... and on.

Yes, I had a bit of sadness as the Honda (on the truck) drove away.  It has been a good vehicle and this is a sad way to see it go.  So, we have given up possession of the CR-V; the title has been signed and shipped to Progressive via FedEx; we have some space in our driveway again; and we'll wait to have Progressive transfer the funds... should happen relatively soon.  "Relatively" compared to how they've handled everything to this point.

We've had other stuff going on, so we haven't been driving the Equinox much, but we are certainly enjoying it so far.

Time to move on.
