So, today, hot as it was, and feeling sick, I drove to the bank to deposit some of that survey money I've been making. The bank is only a few blocks from here. So, I pull up to the drivethru window and........my window won't open. It's stuck. Then I try the door, and that too, won't open. I did manage to get it open turning the lock. But the window, just won't budge. So, all that survey money I've been making, it's all going to go to fix the window and door lock. It never fails.
So, the good news was, I made a hundred and ten dollars in just about a month. And the bad news is, every single dime will go to fixing the car and then some. It just does not end. I can't not fix it. That's potentially fatal. If I was in an accident and couldn't get the door or window open, it's too dangerous. So I have an appointment with the mechanic for next week. I did price the parts online, so hopefully he will be reasonable, even if I have to order what he needs and just pay the labor. We'll see.
We live in such an incredibly cruel world. I finally after years and years, was able to make alittle bit of money on my own. And I can't keep a single dime of it.
If you haven't already, read my blog on where I go to make money with the surveys. It really does pay to do them. http://carrigon.blogspot.com/
I'm not ready to give the car up yet. In spite of the side effects of the levothyroxine, I have more stamina. I can do more in a day than I used to be able to. Not tons of stuff, but I'm not struggling to take a shower like I was or dying with doing the laundry as much. And I can wash more of my dishes. I have more stamina when I'm out with my friend, too. I don't feel like I'm dying when we go places now. I'm nowhere near fine, but I'm better than I was. And I'm not ready to give up driving just yet, if God will let me keep the car a bit longer.
The only thing I can attribute to having more stamina is the change in the levothyroxine. Since they changed manufacturers, I have more stamina. Like I said, not fine, but able to take care of daily things more. I still have problems with POTS attacks and flareups, but I have more stamina and a bit more energy for the daily stuff now.
