I sold my car this morning. With it, went another part of my freedom down the drain. I still have hubby's van but it's not the same. I will not be able to take his van when I want too.

He doesn't like to drive my daughter around, so I know I will have it for those time. I will have to found something else to escape myself.

I hope life is not to rough for all of you. Keep going forward!

I know EXACTLY how you feel Forgotten. I bought my first car when I was 18 and have always had my own car. When I moved to Norway I didn't have a car that I had access to until this summer. It was an incredibly hard adjustment and one I was not happy making but in time I found other ways. A car does give you more freedom. I am glad you will have a vehicle to use. That is important.

I still don't own my own car and living in Norway I probably never will because of the expense. That's still hard to swallow but I know it will be ok. I've found ways around it. I took the bus for the first time in my life here.

Hugs, hon, the loss seems great now but it will get better and you will adjust.
Big hugs,
Heidu

I sold my car because we needed money. For rent and hubby's medications. His medications cost a lot so this way we are at least sure to be able to pay for them for the winter.

We had to let one go, the car or the van. Since I'm not working anymore, he said I really didn't need my car and I can see his point. So the car it was.

Sorry to hear that, I do hope that things will be looking up for y'all soon.
I know it is really a loss, not having a car at all times, I have had that experience a few times, sometimes for months, it sucks, but try to hang in there, you know you are always welcome to come here and talk with us, so maybe while you can't drive around you can use that time here as a diversion? Just a thought, it may help take away that isolated feeling for a little bit, that is how I felt when I was without a car and my son was a baby, and just had moved to another state, it is hard when kids are infants to not have a car, hope you are close enough to things it helps. But feel free to continue to post here, we are all here if you want to talk.
Please take care now.

** hugs for hope **

My car played a big part in my escape, my freedom. I could escape from stress, home, my village, my environment. It was my safe escape.

ok I'm going to stop talking about this. I will found something else, some other way.

Thank you and take care!
