Current location:the freezer I call home
Current mood: cold and BLAH!!!!

terrible horrible miserable rotten day!!!!!
well my morning started at 6 am with it being below zero windchill car covered in ice and me having to be to work at 7....In my fight with my passenger side car door...(for those thqat don't know drivers side door handle already broke) I snapped off my door handle...so a 2 door car with no door handles is an issue, so i started to try and pry the passenger side window open, which of couse shattered it. so I head to work as open passenger side door (no window makes it easy :) ) and open the drivers side door, move glass out of the way and then head to work...on my break I went to a car wassh to vaccuum up the glass and in the process the bar that holds the window fell and now passenger side door doesnt open and of course i had closed the drivers side door and didnt leave window rolled down so I squeeze through the window to open drivers door, (now I am not the smallest person in the world and had to be quite a sight, plus my fingers were purple and burning from the cold and the couple cuts didnt help either) so I got back to work and left window of drivers side down. I was not a great person at work today thanks to these adventures but thanks to weather we had 3 people call in and I was stuck. one of the kids (freshman in college) that works with me was in between classes and stopped in and he was kind enough to go get me a couple estimates for my car as I was working...one place the window alone was around 500 and the other the window and the 2 door handles would be a little over 800. I asked around and have a couple more places to check from those that have lived in this town longer than 8 months and know people. I plan on doing that tomorrow as when I got off work I went to home depot, bought duct tape and plastic and wrapped up my passenger side window...I could afford to get car fixed after getting paid next friday, but there goes my savings and my ability to pick up my boys :(. That has brought me to tears more than I can count today and still is...I am sure that it will all work out but at this point I don't see it happening...I'm off to crawl in bed and cry some more...its not the car that bothers me it is the fact of disappointing my kids yet again and feeling totally helpless...I think I am done for the day and at this point I'm tired of all the challenges and obstacles in my life...just sad and blah!!!!!! I hope everyone else can stay warm (apt about 40 degrees right now :( as landlord was blowing insulation and had door open and I always shut the heat off when im gone ... 2 electric heaters and the stove!!!!) and has a better day....sorry for the length also!!!!
