Under so much stress..

This week has been pretty tough already. We have 1 car to get everyone where they need to go. I had to get up an hour early today and will need to hop in the shower in a second so I can drop my oldest off at school before heading off to work myself. Hubby is hitching a ride to work so he can get the boys on the bus. School started yesterday. The twins had soccer right after school, then they had band practice right after that. They didn't get home till almost 10pm cause after we picked them up from band we had to pick the oldest up from his job. So when the twins got home I had a million papers to sign for them. We went and looked at a van last night, and we're hoping we're approved for a low down payment and low monthly payment. We don't have much to put down, and since the van died we don't have a trade in. We're hoping we can get around that because we can't survive much longer on 1 vehicle with how busy everyone is. I had to put off buying cleats for the kids for soccer because of needing the cash for the down payment for the car.. they'll have to deal with what they have for now. Yesterday was so chaotic and I didn't have any down time at all. Today will be slightly better as all I have is soccer practice for the younger boys. Hopefully we'll hear about the van and it will be good news and life will get back to normal fairly soon. It will still be hectic, but hopefully it will be slightly less hectic than usual.

Oh, I hope that you get approved for that van! Good luck! By the way, what kind is it?

@sacmom 2001, we bought it 2 years ago for $2500 so I can't complain much.

School started here today, and although we tried to get everything ready, there's always something that ends up being forgotten in the rush. I hope things straighten out for you.
