I am very ready for November to be over. I'm tired and exhausted and it just has not been a good month for me. I can't completely say the WHOLE month has been complete shit but that's only because its not over yet. Sigh....
Some of you seen my post back on the 13th.I had described to you the most horrible week i have had in a long time.
I found out that insurance WAS going to pay off the rest of what i owed on the car (THANK GOD) but i would only have 600 dollars left over to either buy a car out right or put down on another less expensive car. I ended up finding a car i really liked that would have been 1195 after my down payment, I got really excited about it until i found out NO ONE would finance me for it, as if i was asking for a 15,000 dollar loan! NO just 1500!!! SO I went on with the rest of my car search. I looked and looked and looked. and looked. and nothing. I searched everything i could find on Craigslist for what i could afford and yet still Nothing!
So Saturday came around and I had to take my rental car back. Great. I got nothing. Im sitting at home on a saturday night by myself bored. I then entertain myself watchin shows online and catching up with blogs that i have not had time to read when i decide 'Hey im gonna go grab me some smokes and come back home and crawl into bed and watch some friends" I pop on my shows throw on a hoodie and grab me keys. Out the door i go to walk outside and realize I have NO WAY TO GET THERE! I turn around and come back inside and sit down. Then here comes the water works. You see i have had my license for going on 8 years now and never once have i been without a vehicle. When all of this hit me i just lost it. I dont know why it didnt dawn on me before but it slipped passed me. Im just sitting here crying wondering what could happen next.
Well here comes the Silver lining. Yes there is a silver lining sometimes you just have to look for it or be patient and wait for it to appear. Well damn it I got mine,
When my dad was on his way over Today to help me go find a car i was looking online. He got here and still nothing was popping up that was even worth looking at. I decided what the hell and typed exactly what I wanted into the search bar on Craigslist and BAM an add i hadn't seen once popped up from 11 days ago. It was in the add for 1000 and i decided what the hell im gonna call them and see if its still there and if they are willing to work with me whatsoever. I got lucky. When i talked to them they told me that i could come look at it but they weren't sure if they could let it go for 600 because of the fact that it was a pretty good car and worth a lil more than that. So we haggled a lil bit and Thanks oh so much to my dad (helping me out til payday) We settled at 800.
It has a lil bit of paint missing and the bumper and hubcaps don't match but what the heck i got me a car!
I have sooo much more to say but maybe you will all get lucky and I will do me another blog tomorrow
Goodnight
