From the Box of the Kittybird:
So here’s the deal.
Last week Draggy’s car broke down 2 hours in to her delivery shift. The car now currently in the shop. We thought it was gonna cost a couple of hundred to fix, which would have been tight but manageable for us but now it’s seems that the issue was the fuel pump or something and we are looking at a bill of something around $1,300. Now we can’t afford that up front so we are having to look at some options to cover that. But the thing is Draggy can’t deliver and earn money with out a car.
I don’t know what to do as I’m not a mechanic.
So here is what I am going to do. This coming Saturday from 8pm central through Sunday and until I cannot physical do any more I am going to hold a gaming marathon stream to help cover some of this cost as well as our Normal bills etc.
Also commissions are open. And I’m offering pre-orders so if you know you would like something from me and can’t think what you like or want to have some time before asking me for it, you can pay upfront and pay for a commission slot in advance.
Tips and gratuities are also welcome.
This journal will be updated as and when I have more news.As well as details about the marathon.
Update: So the repair guy was awesome and found the pump needed cheaper. So it looks like it’s actually only going to be around 700 with labor.
Edit: Forgot to put the Paypal Addy: ShineyKittybird[at]Gmail.com
Update: 2 so, the price is back over 1000, as labor and a couple of small parts have to be seen to. Right now its the low end of 1000.
