Another Day

Another long day of work and running around. And what do I find out . . .I swear every time things seem to be falling into place, something blows up in my face. I've been saving for a house and have put some offers down on a few things. And it never seems to work out. Well, I guess that's someone's way of telling me it wasn't meant to be. Right? That's what I have to keep reminding myself. So the money's saved, ready to move and then BOOM!?! Hey, guess what, you need at least 2 new tires. And guess what? Oh, right, your tires are a weird size and cost almost $200 each. Really, how the heck can rubber cost so dang much. but it's gotta be done. Not something you can really put off when you're planning on making an 8 hour car trip. So after going to the car dealership and getting a quote there I decided to take a little trek to find out if I can get tires cheaper anywhere else. So I go to Sears and they're $12 bucks cheaper there. Anything is better than nothing, right? By that time everything else was closed. So I guess I'll be making some phone calls in the morning to see if i can save more than $12 each. Guess I can't complain, I've had the car for 6 months and all I've done it get an oil change. So I guess it's holding it's end of the bargain, it's only fair I get the car some new tires for taking such good care of me for the past 6 months. Enough of my vent . . . I know it's life, but it's just irritating that every time I think I'm ahead, Bye bye $500. I hate money! But I guess who doesn't these days?
