tue: more frustration!!
had a good saturday at the beach with Matthew. then grilled steak and sausage. mmm....sunday had a really bad day at sharks cove even tho it was so beautiful out there. but he forgot all his swim gear (fins, goggles, reef shoes, etc) and it was just a mess. we got cut up on the reef cuz all of a sudden while we were out in the deep end, a swell decided to show up and start bashing up the reef! we tried to swim around it, but he isn't as good of a swimmer as i am so i decided that we try to climb up on it to cut through but that's how we got cut up. anyway... yesterday the mech that towed my car said that they think the head gasget is blown. i'm sorry WHAT??! the HEAD GASKET IS BLOWN?????!!!! i asked him, "i thought you said you fixed the over heating problem??" he said "well i thought we did" WTF??!! if anyone reading this knows anyting about cars, a head gasket job for my 94 chrysler convert 6 cylinder 3.0L engine could cost anywhere between $1,500-2,000!!! so ...i think that these guys are at least partially responsible for this blown head gasket so i think they should pay for at least half of the bill. i just gotta figure out how to go about this so that my car actually does get fixed AND THEY PAY FOR A DAN GOOD PORTION OF IT! and you know what... did i mention that i'm trying to buy a house right now??? i'm right in the middle of making an offer on a 4 bd room house i really like! how the hell am i gonna get money to fix my car when i gotta pay money down AND closing costs??? GRRR!!!! anyone got some advice? or just some prayers for me?? i'm sweatin here. well thanks for reading my frustration. God bless everyone!!

Buy a lotto ticket friend ;) I hope it all works out for you.
lol i like ozfm\'s suggestion. Actually- you\'ll find that things usually work out one way or the other, in the end you\'ll get exactly what you need my friend. ((hugs))
Hi, it might not be a bad idea buying the lotto ticket,my husband wins a lot,on the scratch offs,the $5.00 ones.He wins a lot,but who knows how many he actually buys before he wins.lol I don\'t know about where you are, but maybe you could try small claims court.Here it is $15.00 for a few thousand dollars,it may be worth it.Unfortunatly most things require something in hand writing,and a lot of us don\'t ask for that,because we trust,that\'s sad,but true.There may be someplace that could help you out and give you a car,because some people donate them for a tax write off,and some really want to help other\'s.Here it is a Jewish organization that does it,for any people of any faith,and probably some that do not even believe in GOD,they don\'t ask those questions of that nature.There may be also a helpline number that you could call.Here it is 411 and you can ask about anything in the book.I will keep praying,that you get some help.You deserve it,with respect,love ya lot\'s,and THANKS MARINE,SEMPERFIDELIS,connie
well shit, when it rains it pours. I hate it when that happens. I know when my dh thought a head gasket was blown on our car, we planned on just trading the bitch in for a new one. Sometimes the cars value isn\'t as much as the repair job. You gotta weigh your options. Whatever you do decide, I hope things work out for you. Buying a lotto ticket is worth a shot cuz you can\'t win unless you play, right? Good luck :o) xox
things will turn out!! positive thoughts your way are coming!! where is the house at? hugzzz
