old farts windfall

old fart!? OK that's me. here's the tale ( true). I go to the building supply for load of lumber. the kid loading with it all bundled up, pushes it into the front of bed, and that pushes in the back of the cab 5 inches! wow! 95 3500 ram cummins, 205,000 mi. 3 estimates, each bout $5000 . wow!
insurance totals it, gives me $6500, sells it back to me for $800. I find a "real" bodyshop, they pull the panels, doesn't even need any paint. cost $550. good as ever. so I drove around with the back window bought to fall out for a month during all this bs!
first time in decades I have more than $1000 in a savings account!
