The "NO CAR BLUES"!!

Ya know, all things happen for a reason, I truly believe that.

I advertised my car, thinking it would take a week or so. Was lambasted with inquiries, people wanting pictures, you name it. (Oh, and if you use craigslist.com? You can't delete the ad for a while, so now I have email every day... do you still have the car?)

A lady emailed me, and I responded. She called. Ok, we'll call this Point #1. She was a nursing student. Has 3 weeks before graduation. Has children, is divorced, and trying to make her own way in the world. That's Point
#2. She had a car. It was totalled while sitting in front of her parent's house while she was out with her parents. Thank Goodness she has insurance! Her mom let her use her car........ for a month, while she looked for a decent vehicle. She had an offer for a part time job while she finishes school, and they will work around her school schedule. She was to start today. That would be Point # 3, and is also the reason that I am now carless, and still have over two weeks to survive here! (She paid cash, which is Point #4.)

Ok, I can walk to work. It is only 3/4 mile. That I can handle. However, everything else happened so fast, I have money that I need to put into the bank, and I'm not walking 5 miles to do it. I have bills that are ready to go out, but am not mailing them because I don't know when the money will be there. And talk about smoking! This may make me quit! I count my cigarettes out, and lay them in a line...... I can't have THIS one until, oh, say 10 at night. If I smoke all before them by 7, then its a loooooooooooong way till 10!!

I have done such a good job cleaning up all foods in the apartment, that I may starve to death. I am not walking to the store for food.

Tomorrow I'm going to check into renting one for a week. After all, I still have to get my PPD at the Health Department. ( The new job said I could get it here, and bring or fax the results, so that there won't have to be a break between when I get there and when I start work. Hmmmmmmmmmm, starting to think about that now. I might have wanted to take a break between moving, situating, breathing, and starting a new job. But never mind.)

I'm tripping over boxes now. And I am OUT of boxes now too. And with no car to go get some, today I took a nap! lol

Anyhow, things are moving right along. As I said, all things happen for a reason. At the present time, I'm just looking for the reason!!
