Life a little easier being able to move

So yes I was finally able to get some type of transportation. It's been tough not having enough for gas and where I work well the little I do I don't get paid for sectionals but do for the lessons I teach. I guess I just feel as I'm leaving a footprint and gaining experience is more important except I couldn't quite make it all the time. luckily I was being able to go with my dad but since I was I would have to be on a campus all day and wait until after school, it was time being wasted. My mom had been saving some money so she let me borrow it to get my self a car. It's going to take me a long time to pay it back but in the bright side we have a more affordable car. I did well in maintaining interest yet not seeming needy from whom I bought it from.   I drive approximately 56 miles one way (times it by 2 both ways) and sometimes I go twice a week... imagine if I had a full time.
See when I was going with my dad I would have to wait around all day. Sometimes I would get time to chit  chat with the director because I've known him for  12 years but you don't have time. If any time it was a minute at a time. He was one of my encouragements to go into music when he was my teacher.He pushed many of us into the school we went to. He wanted to see more diversity in that campus ans sure enough we added.
So when I am able to drive I do errands, deliver orders to my mom's clients and run my personal errands which sometimes need to get done but I don't disclose what I have to do. I just do everybody else's and do what I can about the time with mine.
Now, wednesday was the first time I was able to drive in a while. I felt such an urge to leave I forgot my purse and my wallet at home. Lol!!! I was extra cautious.

So this is it. It's a 2002 White Honda Civic. It will get me from point A to point B-I back to point A again. The best part is not having to depend on a ride or to take care of business, I can just do it when it needs to. The best part is I no longer have to ask to use a car to leave.
I have my other car but it's still being used and it's in a bad condition. And even though I bought that one, I bought it with out help I feel I can't use it. Even if I asked to use my car I wasn't always allowed or I was frowned upon...
Well, it's easier (a little now) to focus and getting what I have to do now and not being as stranded.
