My dad's words of wisdom to me were "If money can fix it, it's not a bad problem." Of course that is harder to take when you're lacking the money, but it's a good thing to remember. Donna B.s last blog post..Merry Christmas To All!

Ugh. I am so sorry to hear. Car troubles are such major headaches. I hope whatever the bill comes out to is reasonable. Crossing my fingers. Hope you're staying warm. Momisodess last blog post..Ha! Ha! Ha! Merry Christmas

My Cavalier died just outside a Canadian Tire. The guy who helped push it just happened to work in the service department so he pushed it right in. Ended up with an $800 bill for fuel pump and fuel filter *issues*. I hate that! It is a horrible feeling to be without a reliable vehicle! Mind you, we have enough snow the option of skiing around town is always there,, lol. Loris last blog post..Bittersweet, and I don't mean chocolate

Krystal McCarthy » We’ve got an awesome Nissan Maxima in Arizona that need a new engine. The way we see it a new engine in the Maxima is way cheaper and wiser for us than getting under another loan (since we are trying to buy a home).

Once we get the cash to have the engine replaced (and before I pop) we’ll fly out to Arizona, pick up the car from my mom’s house and drive it back to Indiana. It’ll save us about $11,000 and has a ton of great safety features.

Uhg… You and snow! What is it with that cold white stuff that you love so much? lol Have you and N ever thought about a new car? Something with modren safty features for Taters car seat?
Thats what we had to do with ours when we got pregnant with Aidan. We traded my Chevy S10 and C’s Jetta and now just have a Hundai and we love it! Its small, but gets us from point A to point B.

I think it was about 400 – but that was back in the early 80′s. 400 was a month’s income for me then. I do not know how much now. I am guessing that your mechanic has not gotten back to you yet. I hope that you can “forget” about it until Friday, so that you can just have fun and enjoy Christmas.
