Well. My car won't pass inspection unless I put a new tie rod and wheel bearing on one side. They called me early this morning. He said it would cost $460 total for everything. That includes the inspection and oil change. So now I have to get these other things done also. When they get done with the tie rod end they have to do a wheel allignment also. I didn't know what to do so I called my sister Jane and asked her for help. I've never asked her for anything my whole life. It's hard to ask her. She bitches about money all the time. but I did call and she said she'd pay for it. I'd rather have asked Savey but she won't let me. She thinks that it's her obligation to pay for her family's stuff. Not him. Even though they are married and he has all the money. Trouble with asking Jane is everyone will hear about it and then I'll have to hear how broke she is and it will make me feel guilty. Even though she will take any stray cat and take it to the Vet and get it fixed. She just did that two weeks ago. She spends lots of money for the animals.
I needed $300 because I have the rest. My brother Rick paid for the pipe I needed last month. Now I'll feel obligated to both of them. I've been trying to sell things and have sold a few items. That's how I had the money to get my car registered and was sure I had enough for the inspection and oil change. Never expected it to have any other problems.
I'm not ready to give up my car yet as long as I can still walk. And I sure don't want to be asking the family for rides all the time and I'm sure they aren't looking forward to me asking either.
So I'm not sure when the car will be done. Maybe I'll just wait till tomorrow to pick it up. I think Jeanne has tomorrow off anyway. That way she won't have to leave work today.
So my stress level was up quite a bit first thing this morning. Didn't need that.
I'll be back later and fill you in on anything else. Have a nice day.
