    Glad your toe isn't truly busted, silly Bri! Hope the fuel pump comes soon!

    Join the club Bri!! I had new brakes and tires put on my car last winter, and had to take it in to the shop on Monday to have a slow leak in one of the tires fixed. When the mechanic asked if my brakes were grinding, I told him they sure as heck better not be, or you can repair them for free since I've only put a few thousand miles on the car since the new ones were put on. Well come to find out, that the brake calipers are sticking and need to be replaced (they aren't part of a new brake job) - to the tune of almost $500. Merry Christmas car!

    Ouch Pom - I feel your pain. Just what you need at this time of year. If you had a neighbour who worked on cars as a hobby and for much less money you could go that route but I guess not every neighbourhood has these handy guys. We're lucky enough to have one of them and while we have our regular garage for maintenance and stuff he does come in handy for so many things. Sometimes will just trade off the work for a favour he needs, now there's a good deal for both sides. He loves doing body work too so he does our son's and daughter's cars if they happen to get a dent or what not.

    My dad is fixing mine, so I'm not going to a shop or anything . We are just waiting on the part to get here. Then hopefully my dad and my brothers will be free so he can get it installed pretty quickly!

    Update...

    My toe is almost healed, there's still a very small amount of pain there, but it's almost healed and it doesn't hurt to walk on it anymore or anything.

    ANDDD...

    The fuel pump for my car came in yesterday!

    My dad called me today and said he was going to try to get it put in between now and Monday... So let's hope that this actually fixes my car and there isn't something else going on too.

    That sucks! I know how you feel! Our car seems like something is always going on it. I think we still owe $600 for when they fixed it last and it seems the breaks are going AGAIN. We're getting a new car soon... I hope your part gets here quickly and you get it up and running again soon!

    edit: I should probably read all the posts before commenting lol! Glad the part is here!
