Frustrating to not have a car that works

Spent all day yesterday in a low thought process zoned out level that prevented me getting any actual work done, because my sister had said that she was going to pick me and my dad up to go for a drive. Turned out I should have got my backlogged work done. Unfortunately I believed the invite, so instead of settling in for serious research and writing work I worked on some basic text editing and free web directory listings of my sites and stuff.

There was no surprise when we never went for that drive, but I was still a bit annoyed to have lost a full day of work over it. No surprise in never getting any notice that the outing had been canceled. Just the usual invite dad to do something, then.... nothing.

Dad decided today that he is through with the B.S. and wants to get a car with working heater and brakes and stuff. We have been looking online at the local dealerships and have found some possibilities, so now I just need to do some number crunching so that I can decide just how much we can afford per month on a car.

NOTICE: I love trying to make this a good travel journal and while I know I fall short of my dream, I also spend a LOT of time pondering and rereading comments to see if I should post or delete as robot SPAM. So... a few rules on the comments.

I want anyone, not only Blogger members or Open ID members to be able to comment, however... Please sign your comment, if you do not it will not be published. Anonymous comments help no one and are unreliable.

Also, if you have a strong enough opinion to post a comment, please take time and make it informative - if you had a good time somewhere detail what you mean, don't just say "This place was great!!! Loved the buffet!", and if you had a lousy time please detail it, don't just say "This place sucked and the pool smelled! Ruined my vacation!" I want to feel as if you really were there when I read your comments.

If you have a website or blog where you detailed your experience it is even better, include a link to your website or blog - just make sure it is not to a SPAM site made to endorse/defame a location, because I will delete any that do not strike me as being legitimate personal sites.

Thank you for your help in making it easier for me to know what is robotic SPAM and what are real personal reviews.
