Ever since the accident, I haven't had a vehicle to drive around, and that means that I've been stuck at home a lot. If I want to go anywhere, I have to either pray that Mom or Dad don't need the car, or mooch a ride off of someone else (which I really hate doing). I just wish that I could take myself places without needing to get permission or without having to bother someone else about it. I miss being able to hop in the car and drive down to Wal-Mart just because I'm bored...I don't have that luxury anymore. Now if I'm bored, I get to walk places, which I really don't enjoy doing because it takes so long and my foot still hurts pretty bad.
So, I'm basically stuck in the house all the time, which isn't great. I've been getting on the computer a lot lately, which is not a good thing because I never have anything to do when I'm on here, so I just poke around on some websites and pray that someone logs into their messenger so that I can talk to them.
My Mom said that she's going to get her van up-and-running so that I can use it until I can afford to get another car, which will be cool...only I don't know when that's actually going to happen. And she informed me today that she thinks it would be a good idea for me to use her van during the Fall and Winter quarters so that I can save up money for my new car....which is a good idea, except I'm not comfortable driving her van in the winter and I need something that I'm comfortable with to get me to and from campus every day. I just don't think it's a good idea, but I told her that I would/could use it for a couple of months and save up as much as I can then.
As far as what car I want to get, I'm not sure. I haven't even really been looking around to see what's out there because I don't have the money yet. I'll probably wait until the week before school starts back up and then go out and check some of the dealerships in town to see what they've got. I hope that I can find something that I like that also fits into my budget!
