It started out okay... DH and I spent some time with our daughter and went to walmart to get some fans for our room. On the way home, I was driving and someone stopped in the middle of the lane right in front of me, so I honked at them and DH got mad and we argued a bit. When we were over that (a few blocks later, lol) we came home and cleaned. It's just after 10:30 and DH wanted his shrimp, which was frozen solid in the freezer in the garage. So I got annoyed and went upstairs to thaw his shrimp for him (We live in my parent's basement right now). I heated myself up some lasagne and when I came back downstairs I had a new email in my inbox. Here's where it gets good, lol.

About half an hour ago I was looking through craigslist for a cheap, but working, car for me to drive so DH and I don't have to fight for the van. I sent out an email and made one call, though I had to leave a message. So, I opened the email and it was a reply about the car I emailed about! I had asked if they would accept a down payment to hold the car and they said yes! We will be able to pay the rest next Friday, and then I will have a car!! And the best thing is, it's only $450! AND there's only minor hail damage, none of the windows were broken and the a/c works, too, lol. There is a dent on the rear passenger side door but it doesn't affect the window at all, and the fuel injector needs to be replaced, which hopefully DH will be able to do that, or teach me how to do it. I wasn't expecting a 100% working car for cheap, but that's not bad for the price, huh?

I feel like a kid on Christmas!!
