It's about that time

MUST. GET. ANOTHER. CAR. This is really starting to get old. I'm either stuck at home during the day or I have to get up at the butt crack of dawn to take Corey to work. At first getting up wasn't that bad because I could just come home and go back to sleep...that is, if Nadia let me. lol But since I've been doing strollerobics, it makes more sense to just stay on base since we live about 20 minutes away. Corey gets dropped off around 6:30 and the class doesn't start until 9. We already fill our gas tank up about every 10 days or so, so in order to save on gas I go to the gym and sit in the parking lot and read. Then I do my work out, take care of any errands that I may have, come home, do the mommy thing, then go back to pick up Corey at five. Lately he hasn't been getting off until later, so again, Nadia and I will sit in the car until he gets off. It was okay during the summer but now that it's getting cold I hate just sitting in the car risking Nadia and I getting sick.

Corey doesn't like being with out a car either. He feels bad asking for rides to and from PT (if it's at the gym) and he hates that his supervisor can't depend on him on certain days to go to another shop for supplies or something. We have somewhat worked out a schedule on who gets the car when but I'm always thinking about the "what ifs". What if something happens to Nadia on the day that Corey has the car? What if Corey finds out last minute that he has a meeting to go to and I have the car?

I think we are gonna get something reasonable...just to get us from point A to point B. I HATE the idea of having two car payments but I don't want to spend money on an older car and then it turn out to be a piece of crap. I guess we'll look until we find something we can agree on...

Being without a car really sucks! We tried it for a time and it just didn't work. I ended up getting a used car (honda) and it's worked for me. But you are right used isn't always the best option.
