Update - Good news, and bad
14 years ago
First off, I want to thank all of the people who have taken commissions with my mate, lucca
Through your donations and commissions, and our own work at saving, we've managed to raise just a little over 200 USD.
Under normal circumstances, this would have been just enough to afford a trip for Lucca and my self to visit her mother and children in Yakima for a day or two, including a hotel for the duration. A nearly 2 hour drive to the east from here, through Seattle and the Cascades.
However.. There is some bad news...
As I've mentioned in a previous journal, the transmission in the Explorer had dropped second gear, but was still mostly functional.. Enough to run to the store or drop Lucca off for her college classes during the week. I went to the auto shop today, just to ask the general running price for a transmission repair, or replacement, in light of the upcoming trip...
The cost of repairs, is more than we payed for the vehicle itself... Where we were hoping it would be under 1000..
We can't take the Ram.. That's my dad's only commute vehicle.. And I don't feel comfortable taking the Caravan, in case there's an emergency, and my mother needs to get to the hospital, or doctor's office. (She refuses to take an ambulance) This leaves me with little to no safe options for transportation outside of Kitsap county..
One solution that was presented, was to rent a car for the trip.. This would mean, however, that we'd need to raise as much as 5 or 6 hundred, to cover the cost of the rental, gas, and lodging for the time we'd be spending over there..
As Lucca has stated in her journals, money is extremely tight, and we don't have extra to spare between bills, food, and payments for various outstanding debts, so options are further limited...
If you can help out, we would both greatly appreciate it. Even if it's just to link to this journal.. The farther out the call for help can reach, the more are likely to hear it.
Lucca is open for commissions, and any donations are more than welcome.
If you happen to need help altering an avatar in SecondLife, I'm also open for work.

OP
Yeah.. A couple people re-posted, but not much actual feedback. *Shrugs* Hardly anyone ever comments on my journals, except for the silly memes that I rarely do.
