Less than a week...

So my van didn't even run for a week before breaking down again. Most people would finance a replacement vehicle, but I'm being stubborn, so as not to end up in the "American Dream" of being so buried in debt that I can't breath. Ideally, I'm going to stick to only school and home debt. You can live without a car for periods of time, even in America, where there's gas in our veins. It's inconvenient, but life’s not about convenience sometimes. Sometimes it’s about getting tougher. The budget will balance someday.
