So a week went by without hearing back from the car rental agency, and it was annoying me slightly. But I thought that it wouldn't be much longer before I got the car back, so what would be the point of having a rental for only a couple of days? Well, I decided to call the body shop to get an update on the car. Well, they found out there's more damage than they thought and that implies it's probably going to take longer. After getting that information, I called the rental place and asked for a car they had promised. They had one. One of the agents picked me up and I signed a bunch of papers when I got there, and they put me in a Hyundai Sonata since I'm used to driving a Honda Accord. Let me tell you that it was freaky to be behind the wheel again, especially since the rental place was on a very scary section of State Street that I am not familiar with. So, I was driving a car I wasn't used to driving; it had been a week since I had driven; and rush hour was beginning. Not a good mix! I was a nervous wreck, but I managed to get home all right. It's nice to have a car, but now I'm kind of a nervous driver and I don't want to be!
It's been getting cold around here, which has been nice, but this morning it was so cold that Stephan didn't want to ride his scooter to UVU. He asked if I would drive him, and I didn't want to be so selfish that I wouldn't drive him. Marriage is about sacrificing for the other, right? I managed to get him to UVU with little difficulty. My difficulty was the sun. It was about 7:45 or so in the morning and the sun was getting in my eyes! It hurt and I had difficulty seeing! My transition lenses were not helping very much. But all was well and Stephan got to UVU and I managed to get home in good condition.
It turns out Stephan just wanted me to drive. He could have gotten to UVU on his scooter. Oh well, it got me back on the road. I think for now, I will try to do most of my driving with him and I will stick to familiar areas. I have never prayed so much while driving in my life.
P.S. We have seen our wedding pictures on our photographer's website! We should be getting the CD really soon. Be expecting to see pictures on this blog really soon :) :)
