Aug. 28th, 2009 @ 09:56 am The ups and downs of car shopping
Down at Fraggle Rock

Mike took me car shopping last night. Myself and him knowing that my challange would be getting the loan not picking a car since anything would be better than I have now.

pro's I have light credit. not too much bad but not too much good. I am not a first time car buyer and my debt to income ratio is REALLY LOW.

Con's I have no $$$ for downpayment and am really strict on what payment I can afford.

So we go to the Nissan dealer by our old office. We go straight to the internet manager and tell them i need credit approval and payments first before we start test driving.

After about 4 hours i have decided on a car with payments i can afford. We go to finance to sign papers and the finance guy says "Wow i guess they are really going to make me work for you on this one." Mike and looked at eachother and froze. So the payment they quoted me and I am signing for is not approved by the bank. UGH! So i sign all the papers leave the car there and said call me in the morning.

They just called... I can have the payment I need if I put $725.00 down payment. How many times do we have to tell you I DON'T HAVE DOWN PAYMENT!

So tonight it is back to the drawing board.

[info]mikeyblueatlast and I got home from work last night around 7pm, went up stairs to get in comfy clothes, laid down and didn't wake up until now.

This week is wiping me out.

What a waste of an evening. but at least I am catching up on my sleep.

The song in my head: Barenaked Ladies - Serendipity
Here I am again... Bored at work... wanting to go home and work on my house.

I can see the light now. My room is almost clean. Charles came over last night and hooked up my wireless router so I don't have wires running in the middle of the room.

Once I get caught up on laundry and have it all put away. I will be way ahead of the game. It is just so hard to do when the kids are at home. I really only get 15 minutes here and there to do things. Then of course when they're not there I want out of the house to play...

This week is different... I am truly motivated and work seems like it is hindering. GRRRR. If I had know this week I would have been like this I would have saved my vacation time :)

I have to get the kids room finished before the 9th. I would like to get my room done too but it is not necessary.

My to do list for this week:

- Laundry
- Put away Laundry
- Dishes
- Mop tile
- Vaccuum
- Project my room (which includes all of the above minus the mopping and dishes)
- Project kids room (also majority of above)
- then maintain next week so I won't be rushing before my dad gets there.

I do have to say I am proud of the way my living room has been maintained. And the storage room too! So for the most part if I can get my kitchen maintained the downstairs is done! I just hate dishes, always have, dishes and laundry are my problem children.

Oh! and I broke one of my plates. The nice thick blue ones! now I only have 7. :( I was really sad... those plates were a wedding present! Can you beleive it took me 5 years to break one? That is like some sort of record for me! LOL.

I took a very blurry video of Madyson in one scene of her play. This is "your never fully dressed without a smile". She has one line and a duet at the beginning of the song. Her and another girl carry the dance number too.

So enjoy!

You Are Kermit

Hi, ho! Lovable and friendly, you get along well with everyone you know.
You're a big thinker, and sometimes you over think life's problems.
Don't worry - everyone know's it's not easy being green.
Just remember, time's fun when you're having flies!


You Were a Horse

You can't be fenced in - you long to run free.
You are good at overcoming obstacles and realizing your potential.
