This has not turned out to be a good day. Quentin went down this morning to Harrison to take movies back to the RedBox, then called on his way home. The van was overheating and he looked, and it was out of antifreeze - we figure he popped the upper hose (he'd replaced the bottom when doing the radiator replacement) and/or the thermostat. Grrr. So I had to brave sleet and snow mixed and miserable temperatures to go get him. This means triple trips with the car and shortish sleep for a few days to get us both back and forth to work until we can figure out a way to limp the truck back home. I really don't need this. I'm so stressed out by everything now that it just isn't funny. I am so far beyond needing crap like this.
On top of this, the weather took a downturn ... global warming, my great-Aunt Gertie's garters! (And I HAD a great-Aunt Gertie, and she did wear garters ...) This is insane. Near 70F yesterday, now it's barely in the 30sF and feels more like 20ish. BRRR. And then we get home from rescuing Quentin ... and find the modem has gone out. Somehow, after an hour on the phone with tech support, we find it "lost registration" with the satellite. WAAAH! Finally end up talking to advanced tech support, and he's all about to set up a call to send someone out with a new modem, when, much like a car going to the mechanic's ... it started to work again. I don't need this. I really don't need stuff like this. I feel like crying, "Why me? We have short checks because of weather, bills that still need paying, and then things BREAK that cost money we don't have to fix." At least this upcoming week is supposed to be warmer. so that's a start.
Guess we have to look into a third vehicle even though we wanted to stay debt-free for a bit so we could concentrate on paying bills off ... urgh. I hate the idea of going into debt again and paying on another vehicle. That and I have got to get some serious internet income going instead of putzing around at it. Time to do a lot more writing than I really wanted to spend time doing, and working on my patterns like crazy, yes? Stuff has to get done, and the sooner the better. Anyhow, it's time for books. Hugs all .... things will be better in the morning!
