I don't know how many of you have heard about my vacation plans I have been working on. I have been hoping to visit my brother in Augusta, Ga. to see their new baby, and then I was hoping to go to Disney World in Florida because I have never been there, and I am a huge Disney freak.
Well, all my hopes and dreams may have come to a crashing halt tonight. I went out to my car to leave for work, and my driver side window is broken. I got in the car and realized that the window was down. I tried to raise it, I have electric windows, and nothing happened. Just a little groan. I felt down in there and I can feel the window so I don't think the glass is broken. All I can think is that sometime during the day the window just dropped down some how, because it was up when I got home Saturday morning. All I can see in my future is a several hundred dollar window motor and several hundreds of dollars of maintenance charges. And my vacation plans literally flying out the window. :(
I am so depressed. I was looking forward to this trip so much.
I have been working all this over time to keep myself out of bankruptcy and now this. Kick me when I am down. I do have some extra money in my checking but I was hoping to save that for a real emergency, and possilby to cover some of my trip. So much for that thought. I guess a lot more over time is in the works.
How many nights can one work before going crazy? I work Mondays through Fridays and I have been picking up every other weekend. So I have been working 12 nights and taking 2 off. I guess I can start just working every night and see how long I can last.
Keep good thoughts for me that it isn't any thing too major and also that it doesn't rain any time soon before I can get it fixed or at least get the window raised back up.
Sometimes life just sucks doesn't it? :(

PS: Anyone know a good but cheap mechanic? lol...

Thanks Derek. Keep sending those "cheap" thoughts across the ocean.
And pray for no rain for awhile. :p

I hope your party went well?

Thank you so much. I have been rummaging through every possibility to pay it off and still have the money for vacation. Fingers crossed. :)

Should get fixed today, Tuesday. I am guessing for somewhere in the $600-$700 range. At least I am hoping it isn't more than that. YIKES...
I am still holding out hope for Disney World. Not ready to give up on it yet.
Thank you for your good thoughts. :)
Hugs, Jon
