My car died on Friday while I was in Lafayette, heading to the whole foods over there. Sigh. I think I have a cracked head gasket. Which means it won't be worth it to fix. Which means I need to buy a new car, which means... I need money. A lot of it. Real quick. :-P Gosh.
I walked to work yesterday- 5.6 miles. Which is fine for the beginning of the day, but I can't imagine doing it at night, it wouldn't be safe. So- I don't know. I could buy a bicycle but, those cost money that I want to be saving for a car. I really don't know what to do.
I'm supposed to go to Colorado in 20 days.... sigh. I just need all the money I can get right now.
I rented a car for the next few days just to solve the immediate problem, which is frustrating enough- because of my lack of credit card. But I got one yesterday, because I need to start building back my credit after my bankruptcy. Especially if I have to buy a car for real and make payments again.
Basically I'm just stressed as far as money and transportation goes.
There is one cool thing though, the people I know around here have seriously come out of the woodwork to help. When I got stranded in Lafayette, when I needed a ride to the airport, twice, when I needed a major credit card to rent the card.... It's just been overwhelming.
I have a real problem with asking for help. It's SO hard for me. I'd rather just figure it out myself.
I dreamt again this morning of Micah singing How Great Thou Art, somehow, it made everything better. I miss him.
