This car was made from the devil himself!! The turbos are dead and it would cost me 7k to fix it, and I owe 8200 on it... not worth it.
So I got approved yesterday for a ford explorer. It was kept in mint condition and only has 13k miles on it. So Im going to pick that up tomorrow.
Thanks for the book idea, I will get it when I can, definately would like to read it.
Then H got a call that the work he did out in Ohio is leaking, we think the product he applied is failing... The inspector watched them apply it and all was good, so that means the product inferior. So H is way stressed right now, that means we may not get paid, even though its not our doing per say.
We just can't win...

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
I swear nc.. if god or the gods were testing us in strength or stress that is, I think my H and I would win.
Anyways... didn't go for the ford. I just couldn't buy another used car. Too many nightmares....SOOOO I got my mom to watch the kids this morning and went down to Saturn and Got a Brand new Saturn Outlook. It is beautiful. They came down about 5k on the price... all by myself. H came at the tail end just to see how I was doing, Told him I had it under control. We both went for the test drive. Its so nice. I have to pick it up on Monday.
One thing down... a zillion other issues to resolve.
S5 birthday party is Saturday, I have to make chocolate lollypops for the gift bags today. I can't do anything else because my brain is fried from the last 4 days.
H and I have been ok. Sometimes our stress brings us togeather faster, since we deal with it so often.

Nice job on the car, TAL! I'm going to guess that you would have relied more on H in the past for the car buying - good for you for handling it yourself!!

Congrats on the new vehicle, Tal. I'm sure you're very excited and happy about it, and relieved.
And I am certain that your little boys are absolutely ecstatic -- let me guess, they want you to take them for a ride in it every chance they can get, right?
