UPDATE: All for nothing

Monday's venting post, re: crazy food chucking lady is now resolved. God saw fit to resolve it by trashing my car. Transmission needs to be rebuilt, front brakes are gone, and it is leaking exhaust...exhaust pipe needs to be cut and welded. So...no more food pantry runs.

I tried to buy a new car today, and my credit isn't quite good enough. They told me to wait 6 months and try again. I still plan to drive my car, holding my breath and praying, to get my own groceries, and go to Dr's appointments. But nothing extra. No weekly food pantry run, and no trips to my friend's house to bring him food.

I feel a bit sick to my stomach...and I hope and pray my credit settles out in the 6 months I have to wait.

Fixing it is a waste of money.

Try to see if you can get a co-signer to help with a new car loan. Six months likely won’t make a material enough difference in turning a “no” around.

@Adogslife I hadn't thought of that at all! Maybe my son will co-sign!!! I will text him! THANK you!!!

@4meAndyou You won't believe this! My son just called me, and he wants to BUY me a car and have me pay HIM back, instead of me getting a loan and him co-signing it! He says he has to run it by his wife first, though.

Also, he wants to buy his sister-in-law's Honda CRV from her, for the remaining payments she still owes on the vehicle!!! Naturally he has to okay it with both his sister-in-law AND his wife...but it is looking like all my troubles will be solved VERY shortly!
