Cars, cars, cars

Cars are so stressful and drive me crazy! Things could go wrong at any moment... With mine and Peter's schedule being so opposite and crazy it was such a blessing to have two cars. We were lucky enough to find a car for pretty cheap and then my dad was nice enough to give me the truck. But, sadly one day on our way home from the dog-park we pulled up to the house and the truck died.. of course. Well at least it happened right in front of the house. We tried figuring out what was wrong and was hoping it was an easy fix, but every time we tried to have someone look at it it would mysteriously start up and then later when we would try it again it wouldn't start again. So we decided to just try and post it on craigslist and see what happened. After just a couple hours we got tons of replies and ended up just selling it 'as is' to someone who wanted to fix it up. Then we were able to find a cheap Bronco on craigslist and we are back on track. I am so happy every thing worked out, even through all the stress.

  1. I hear you - I hate the whole car thing - should I sell - should I fix it etc.

  3. Glad it all worked out. Having cars is a pain in the neck but unfortunately it is a necessary evil. Good luck with the new car!

  4. I think I'd rather have a horse & carriage than have to worry about cars! Except in this AZ heat! :) We're having to put a new engine in our van which is costing us so much money we've cried over it, but such is life! I always remind myself that worse things could happen. <3
