Car problems in Since OD is shutting down....

Anyways so I’ve contacted an agency that helps with car repairs and it’s a lot of hoops to jump through. Apparently they need 3 estimates and they could decide not to cover the bill if it’s too much money. So I could have my car towed all over after making appointments at 3 different places and them decide not to cover it.

I’ve spent the last 2 days on the phone calling around asking the cost of estimates and trying to make an appointment but everyone is booked up at least until the end of next month. It’s crazy how you are just to be without your vehicle for an extended period of time!! How the hell am I going to get myself and my daughter around for who knows how long!!!

My brother’s friend is going to come look at both of my cars this evening and hopefully just fix them within the next few days. I have to wait for a part for the one which should be here tomorrow and then figure out what’s wrong with the other one and get the part for that. I’m hoping it’ll just be available at a parts store and not have to order it and wait for it to get there. The part came today but they never bother to knock and they won’t just leave it so now I get to hope it comes tomorrow.

This has been an absolute fucking nightmare and I’m going to be glad when both cars are up and running again. I’m hoping I’ll get a job right away and start fixing the rest of the shit that’s wrong with them because once they break down completely, it’s hell trying to even get them somewhere to have an estimate done!!

I just don’t get how these places offer ‘help’ but don’t exactly do that. They want you to be carless and struggle for what could end up being several months and then may not help anyway. I wonder how many people are without a car because they just gave up. I am grateful that I still have one but don’t trust it. I am seriously so sick of being in this predicament but I gotta keep pushing because it’s going to get better.

My daughter has her kindergarten screening in the morning and I’m hoping someone there will be able to help me get her registered because I’m having issues getting some of the stuff done. I also have to take her BC, SSC, shot records and proof of residency. I’m definitely having some anxiety worrying who I’m going to run into there and have to be friendly to. I’m just hoping my time there will be short and I can go off and enjoy my day.
