Well, it’s been a year and 4 months since I had a car and at the end of last month, I got a car!!!! Yes, I’m so stoked about it and so grateful for the generous friends of the family that donated it to us. You see, my engine threw a rod and at the time, we just could not afford to replace the car and so I traveled mainly by bus, sometimes by bike and sometime by foot. Also a week before my engine blew, I had broken my foot which made life even more insane…I was in 3 different casts for a total of 13 weeks and then was in physical therapy for awhile so I could get rid of my limp! So, things are starting to get back to normal and though I haven’t taken my new car to the skatepark, I do have my deck, skate tool and shoes in the trunk and one of these days when I get some time, I shall skate! I have to be honest though, I’m a little scared of injuring myself again because last time really hurt my family financially so I’m a little paranoid about that. I keep thinking I need to shed the 40 lbs I’ve put on first….baby steps! 🙂
