Writer's block and a new car!

So I wrote one of my two stories on Friday and have been having major writer's block on my club spotlight story.  I am trying to get more of the member's voices in my stories and I wasn't able to get to the meeting for the club I am trying to write about.  So I have emailed my editor and the club's advisor and given them an update on my issues, witing to hear back, probaly tomorrow.  I am also going to start another spotlight story this week as well.  Trying to not overdo it this quarter with loading my work up so that I go crazy with exhaustion.


And I bought my friend's car from her today!  I drove it to the store and I drove it home by myself and then went for a drive with my boyfriend.  He has determined that there are several things I need to fix/replace.  Suspension, timing chain, oil change, possible radiator issues...plus a window that doesn't work, brakes that need to be flushed and dashboard lights that need to be fixed...


Just for the timing chain and the suspension (if it is in fact the ball bearing things with the suspension)...it is going to be close to $200 just for those two things!  Great way to welcome me to car ownership!!!!  Fun times!!!
