Thats how my day went. See this morning started out with some sad tears as little car was in need of some repairs that were well....quite pricey. So I basically spent the entire day crunching numbers, panicking, trying not to cry at work and figuring out every single worst case scenario I could come up with in my head. Needless to say by this afternoon I was a nervous wreck, sick and frustrated. However as I have done everyday since my 18th birthday and being on my own, I reminded myself that I would get nothing solved if I didn't keep a level head and remain calm. So I weighed my options, made some calls and when I walked out the door at 5 I had everything taken care of and my car will be all fixed tomorrow. No thanks to my mom. But that's a story for another day. Or week....maybe month.
Anyways, so as I'm on cloud 9 driving home thinking that this day couldn't possibly get any better I get home and grab the mail and what do I see??? A little package for me from Minnesota.
(Larabars and iPod car converter)
Drew sent me some good snacks and the capabilities for good music for my next road trip, since I complained that the only radio options in Minnesota are Jesus or country. After the terrible stressful day that I had then the relief of getting everything figured out, coming home to this was icing on the cake. Lucky for me my day ended with happy tears :)
Whew, that is all I have the energy for today folks. It has been a roller coaster of a day and I am spent. Hope everyone's hump day was far easier!
Cheers!

Cars are such a money sucker, aren't they? I'm continually stroking my car, whispering sweet nothings to it, in the hope it won't throw a tantrum that costs thousands. I'm pleased you came out a winner!
ReplyDeleteAnd country or Jesus music? Good Lawd. Praise baby cheeses for iPod converters (and good friends)!
P.S. I just saw that you've named your archives Tardis! I'm not a Doctor Who fan but that's gold :)
ReplyDeleteYay LARABARS :)
ReplyDeletei hear you. i've been stressed about money lately and the new tires i had to buy for our vacation next week did not help the situation!
ReplyDeleteSo glad it ended on a high note!
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, I think I'm going to have to look into buying one of those converters!
ReplyDeleteCar expenses are insane. You get a little ding on one of your doors and suddenly you're shelling out like $800....
ReplyDeleteI think I may hate it worse than the dentist.
the only radio options in Minnesota are Jesus or country?~!?~? THE HORROR! i would just die!
