Car issues....
I am hoping that today I will be able to get a new car. Mine broke down last Wednesday and I am holding firm on not pumping any more money into something that keeps breaking down. Over the past three years Vera and I have put $8000 into it. One thing after another happens to it...and low and behold we have to fix it. So Thursday we went to the Hyundai dealership to see if I could get into something. After four hours of looking around and test driving cars they want me to put down $1500...uh um I don't have that kind of cash. So I pull together $500...(which I was very proud of btw.) They still want $1500...and I walk away with no car.
After taking the bus to work for two days Vera and I are keeping our fingers crossed that I can get into something today. Our friend Pat is going to get us and take us over to Drivetime. He said the down payment I need is just $600 which is what I can do. Well...wait I can do $500...I need to come up with another $100 in the next uh...hour. I'm not sure how I will do that. I am waiting on my cousin Jason to call and tell me that he wired the money to me. I really hate having to borrow money from people. I am trying really hard to stay positive. It has been hard the past week...but I have to say we have both done a really good job.
Anyway I need to get going...I'm looking at what the dealership has to offer. I know that I will have a car tonight. I can feel it.
