18. Well, the damned thing is acting up again.

I drove it this morning for an errand, and it behaved fine. Then, my hubby gets in it and it starts jumping around in reverse and first gear, which is new as first was never acting up so badly, it was just very loud when the the vehicle was in first gear.

My husband is stressed out beyond belief now. So am I. We are supposed to be working on moving out of here and instead we are even more trapped.

I told him. My curse will not be denied. I love him so much. I am destroying him with my bad luck and my inability to do much in the way of being a breadwinner.

I may be forced to ask for help here. I have mentioned how absolutely loathe I am to even think about doing that. But, I will run the risk and deal with the consequences if I can get some help for this situation. I suppose I will have to really think about it.

Damn this. And right after Christmas as well. People are already broke and barely hanging on and I am supposed to ask for help?

Great...
