comfort food. thats what i'm talking about.
after a few days of stressing over our vehicle's undeniable-that-left-it-undriveable problems its time to go through the healing process. so before the under estimated quote comes in i took 30 minutes tonight to whip up a batch of cookies so i could eat my emotions rather than display them.
stranded. snowing. baby in the backseat.
circumstances that leave you feeling helpless and seriously wanting to cry. in a city of over one million people it can be hard to imagine feeling completely lonely even though you see people all around.
bittersweet to watch the pathfinder crawl on the flat deck. uber glad to be off the side of the road but sick knowing that the only way to get it back is to drain our piggybank. there is always something isn't there?
this is not the first time our vehicle has left us to jump through hoops. in the summer when it was hotter than haities and i crazy big pregnant style our air conditioner cluth burnt and we were 9 hours from home.
i mentioned to lindsay that some days i just want to live and not do all of this other shit that you have to do first. today definately classifies as one of those days.
my mom used to break it down for me and set up reality-like scenarios for when i'm in 'the real world', such as make me choose between giving my loved one an anniversary gift or paying a little more on my mortgage. well, valentines day is next week and my pathfinder is in the garage... luckily it's the thought that counts :)
right?

i'm sorry to hear about your car troubles! i hope your day looks brighter tomorrow.
There will be days like that no matter how old you are ...but just remember when you wake up the next day the troubles of yesterday seem so far away.And there is nothing like the smell of hot chocolate chip cookies to soothe the soul. Mom
