I am a sad bunny.
I had all this money saved up in my bank account and then my car started making an odd noise. I thought it was just a belt. My dad thought it was a fan and then the water pump. Took it to a mechanic and got an estimate that made me cringe but I knew it had to be done anyway because I didn't want a repeat of what happened to the Seville (though there were no warning signs that the water pump was about to go out on it...). This morning got a call that it was the air compressor and that if it didn't get fix then it was doomed to go out, lock up the car (and probably cost more than what I paid total for it). What makes it worse is that the cost pretty much wiped out my bank account. I'm broke. But I really didn't have much of a choice unless I either wanted to go without a car or be daring and then just let the car go until it was destroyed (which would probably happen after a few more commutes to work).
But all of my money is gone. All those months of saving after enduring the trash and torture I had to put up with at Kroger and exhaustion of working in general...spent. I guess I'm fortunate to have had that much to begin with and not have to worry about finding a resource to fund the repair. *sigh* Now I have to start all over again with my savings. ...and I was all excited about going shopping during my two days off but so much for that...
