Car Trouble

My mom and I have had car trouble.

My car got stuck in reverse in a business parking lot. Cost us $300 with towing, parts, and labor. The gear cable came loose when I put the car in reverse. I was so scared it was the transmission. Luckily it wasn't. I had to buy brake pads which was part of the bill.

Mom's car tried to crank, but would not. We had to have it towed to the local Chevrolet dealership to get it fixed. Luckily it was the ignition switch (or whatever) that quit. That was $300. We let the lender know we had car trouble and would be making the payment next paycheck.

Seriously. Always something. I have no air conditioner in my car. I have a fan that plugs into the cigarette lighter which circulates the hot air. I still sweat going to work. I smell by the time I get to work which makes me anxious.
