Home and Auto

I am not impressed with certain elements of my life right now.
My car is ill. She may not live through the winter. I’ll be taking her to the car doctor soon, but I have a feeling that I’ll have to buy a new(er) car before the winter is over. This would not be such a bad thing if I had more money.
Part of me does want a new car. As much as I love the Integra, she’s old and slowly dying. A newer vehicle, with better fuel efficiency, more power, and a better heater would be great. But, again, that costs money.
It’s not that I don’t have the money to buy a semi-decent car. But, I have debts that I’d rather pay off instead. And, any car that I buy would likely have to be less than $1500, in order for me to avoid taking out a loan (yet another debt, hooray!). Bah!
Then, there is my housing situation. The rent is going up next month, and I’m not looking forward to it
I was going to give my 30 days notice to end my lease at the start of this month, but I’ve decided to hold off until at least January 1 to do that. I may even wait until the winter is over, just so I’m not trying to move in the middle of winter.
Moving, though, sucks. I really doubt that I’ll be able to buy a place in the next 12 months. So, I’ll be renting. Ugh…
I’d like to rent a house, if I can find a couple of people who are willing to go in and split the rent with me. But, pretty much everyone I know is already locked into a lease, and I’m not too keen on living with strangers.
Hmm…I suppose this post is little more than me bitching and whining, so I suppose I’ll just leave it at that for now.

Bitching and whining on posts is about all I do, so no judgment coming from me!
Sounds like you need a few more beers. If I wasn’t poor and in debt myself, I’d buy you several beers!
If it makes you feel any better, my car is slowly dying too. (misery loves company, right?) My car’s been hooked up to life support for several months now but I don’t know how long it will be able to hold out. I’m hoping for another 6 months at least. **fingers crossed**
