The Nightmare Doesnt End.... Transmission Dead...

OMG.... My car died today. The transmission is gone. I was driving in the car with Savannah, I had just dropped off Logan and Jayde at Kindergarten, when my car made a really loud grinding noise and died. I just lost it. I broke down and cried like I had just lost everything. It is just to much sometimes. I had to pull myself together for Savannah and get in survival mode and get us home.

I had to walk several miles in the 90 degree weather carry Savannah on my back. We were both dying of heat and thirst.

Thankfully my Mom has AAA so I was able to get my car towed to a local transmission shop.

Timing couldnt be worse. We have to be out of our home by November 30th. The check we were counting on for a deposit for a rental on the October 31st will have to go for my car. All the money I have been making thru Ebay and Craigslist and my Virtual jobs will have to go for living expenses.

Creating Cash has never been more important than right now.

Today Brandan came home excited like Christmas. I had applied for a "free" lunch card thru the school program. I was approved and Brandan got both the "free" breakfast and lunch cards. He was so excited. He got to have Ballpark Pizza for lunch that day. He never got to buy lunch before because of the cost. It is amazing to see how going thru this makes one appreciate simple pleasures, simple blessings.

I need to have a kick ass week and make cash or I will not have a car and my family will be homeless.

No Pressure, Brandy! :)
