Broadway Bound

So I couldn't get my car on Tuesday like I had hoped. The salesman called and said that the mechanic had called off sick and hadn't finished putting in a part for me. So I was supposed to pick up the car tonight and well it snowed like crazy so I couldn't go and pick up the car also the salesman called and the mechanic was off sick again today. So I am a little frustrated to say the least but I'm hoping that I can pick up the new car tomorrow. I can't wait to take the new bug on the road and take the boyfriend around town!!

In other news, I am feeling like crap physically. I have a sore throat, sometimes an ear ache and my voice is very scratchy. I'm so tired because I haven't sleep good since I can't breath with my throat feeling like it is closing up. AHH...I hope that I start feeling better.

Lately I feel like I haven't worked out much. Besides hiking in the snow and sledding this past weekend my workouts have almost come to a complete halt. I feel completely gross and feel so frustrated. I'm working really hard this week to watch what I eat and to track it all and to not overeat. So far its working better than I thought and its going pretty good. Since it's sleeting out and there is snow on the ground I couldn't run outside or do anything so I decided to do my workout in the apartment. I did my weightlifting with the weights my thoughtful bf got me for Christmas, ab workout, leg stretches, toned, and danced/jogged around the room for about 10 minutes until I realized that I might have taken it a little too far. I'm pretty proud of myself for trying to get back into the swing of things and hopefully I can keep it up. I have the last 20 lbs to lose by April I hope because I want to fit into a bikini for the summer. Hopefully everything will work out and I can keep up the routine.

So I'm in the process of buying a new to me used car. I hate looking for cars, figuring out to pay for them, researching, all that junk about looking for newer cars. It is just a pet peeve of mine. Any who I don't have much choice seeing as how my car is almost completely dead. :(

I got my car my Oldsmobile Ciera 96' (Green/Gray Color) almost 3 years ago and while I didn't really like it I didn't have much of a say since my Step mom helped me with some on the money till I could pay her back. I was only 19 at the time so I couldn't really afford a loan or anything of that sort. So I got the car and not even 2 weeks later the lights on the outside went completely out over and over again. I finally got that fixed but I had more problems. About a month into the car my exhaust pipe had hole in it and I had to get that repaired. Then in the summer time since I got the car in the winter my air conditioning stopped working. Air conditioning is always nice when you have roll up windows and its really hard to put them down or up on the other sides of the car! So about a year after I had the car I was working late a night and some jerk hit my back driver's side door and that lead to me not being able to open the door ever again. Yeah fantastic! Doesn't that just sound like such a great car? Actually I had gotten a CD player from my ex-boyfriend for one of my birthdays and he installed the CD player and that was one of the only nice things that was in my car. Needless to say I kinda have grown attached to that car even though I secretly hate it and it has a mind of its own (hence the service engine soon light comes on and goes off a day later). I have 181 thousand miles on it and its time for it to part ways with me but I am feeling a little sad about giving it up knowing that this car is just going to go to the junkyard. My dog was sick a few days ago and I was so worried about her that I decided to start my car and drive to the vet hospital for what might be the last time and boy I was emotional driving home thinking that this might be it for the little car. I'm sad and excited at the same thing thinking on a new car and the new possibilities ahead for a newer car but I just can't seem to stop thinking about giving up this car.

Am I crazy or does others feel the same about giving up your car?
