So far it's not going to well. Two days ago I was driving home from Costco, and my engine in my wife's car started making funny noises, still running but it sounded like a spark plug had blown. So I take it to the shop, knowing that they would look into it the next day. The next day comes and I don't hear from them all morning, I start to get nervous. I give them a call around 2:30 pm and the guy on the phone said that Paul the owner would call me when he got off the phone. Two hours later, he tells me yes it's a blown spark plug, and my two options are 1. $5,000 dollars for new heads or 2. $6,800 for a new engine, plus all the labor that goes with it. After I freaked out, I told him that I would get back with him. Knowing that they would closed on the 4th I had to make the hard decision, and decide that this car has finally killed itself for good. So now it's the 4th and we are down one car. I have the rest of the week off which is great, but I'm a guy and I can't relax until this issue is fixed. So now it's loan time to get enough money to pay off our existing car loan and now this new car loan that we will have to have now. So my hope is that we get everything locked up soon so I can enjoy the rest of my week. Of course that means go see a banker and go to a car dealership and have to go through all of the stress of trying to purches a new or used car. So long story short,I am stressed out of my mind at the moment wishing this was over so I can play guitar.
