I think my car is no more. $1500 is just too much to spend on a repair for a car with a blue book value of $2500. It's a 9 yr old car, so it just doesn't make sense to do that. I've been wanting to get a newer car for a while now, and where I live it's just about impossible to get around without one. I broke down crying for the millionth time yesterday and I finally decided to call my therapist. Talking it out helped me calm down and helped me to focus on what my options were.
So I'm going to return the rental car today, tow my car home from the mechanic's and then my dad (or someone) will pick me up and give me a ride to the wedding venue, where I'll meet up with my sis in law and the other bridesmaids. We'll spend the night at the hotel and then in the morning we'll get ready together. The wedding is at 6pm tomorrow. I'm excited to see my brother get married. I'm going solo so I hope that my stepmom and other family members don't give me a hard time about it. I love my brother and my sis in law so much and I'm honored that they wanted me to be a part of their wedding.
Monday the search for a new car begins! Blah. And oh yeah I'm moving at the end of the month. Let's hope I survive.
