I'm happy to hear all is okay! Well, aside from your car, that is.
Like others have said, the important thing is that you and others are alright. It could have been much worse, I'm sure.
You don't like driving in the snow now? Come to Arkansas! Snow hasn't even touched the ground where I am so far this year. (But believe me, I'd do anything for some snow... as long as I won't have to drive in it.)

Anyhow, I hope you get things sorted out job-wise and such.
