So yestarday Buddy and I did some minor running around. We noticed this really weird sound coming from the front of my car and it ended up getting worse by the time we were finished. It would make the noise when I started my car up, and then when I would push on the accelerator. I had buddys dad listen, my grandpa, my step-dad, and finally my uncle. My uncle thought possibly the water pump or the motor(which he was leaning more towards). We dropped it off at a local car dealership/repair place last night so they could run a a diagnostic on it this morning.....What did they find....blown motor. 4500 installed haha. YEAH RIGHT. I could only get MAYBEEEEE 2000 outta my car haha. Needless to say, shes a goner :( I have been planning on getting a new car in a few months, but not right now. Im not in any financial state to be getting a new car right now, but in a few months I will be making double what im making now((pending that I pass boards and find an RN job)). Soooo yeah im stuck driving buddys 1989 car haha. I hate that im married but feel like im not because buddy and I do not "share" anything really. He insists that we have seperate accounts. He didnt even want to file our taxes together lol. So in a time like this when Im in need of a new car, do you think he'd help me out for a few months until my income doubles? Nope..he tells me "I have 2 vehicles that you can drive until you can fully afford a new car". This is true. Its just soo frusterating. Granted he helps me out a ton, since I've been living for free since the beginning. But sometimes I just feel like we arent even married. Ugh.
Pregnancy news..nothing really. I've been feeling FANTASTIC since saturday early afternoon and I love it!!! Im sure it wont continue like this though. Im thinking Im just going to have good days and bad days until hopefully the end of my first trimester, which at that point I'll have all good days (nausea wise anyhow).
The dog has reached 7 months...equal to terrible twos. He no longer will let me sleep in. He wakes up about 6-8 in the morning to go out than he wont let me put him back in his cage. he'll lay in bed with me for 1-2 hours but after that he just wants to wander around. Since I have to work tonight, I had to have my grandpa come get him so that I could sleep today lol. Oh yeah, Riley also slept with me all night last night. First time I've let him do this and I was super nervous. I just feel like I cant trust him enough to let him be "free" for that long haha.
by the way. Im looking at explorers, grand cherokees, or trail blazers for a "new" car. I desperately will need something with 4 wheel drive for the winters because this past winter found me stranded in my own driveway haha. Cant happen when I HAVE to show up at work lol. Why did I go into healthcare again? haha.
off to shower and get myself ready for work.

That sucks about your car! I can't believe Buddy won't help you out!!! Sheesh! I'm so dependant on Nick though, there has to be a happy medium! I like when I have lotsa photography work, because then I have 'my' money that I can use on fun things (or let Nick have for fun things) and not feel guilty about it!
ReplyDeleteJustin always says that when he gets married he wants everything seperate. I think it's bizarre- I guess maybe because my parents are not like that. I always tell him that I refuse. I think it's crazy...Boo about your car, but just keep looking and you might find a good deal, ya never know! :o) I'm glad to hear that you're feeling better...hopefully it'll last!!! XOXO
