Sorry, good sir, but I am afraid I will have to bow out of this year's Secret Santa. The car repairs are just throwing off my entire budget for the rest of the year.
Still waiting to hear back on a final estimate for my car. I'll let you know if I'm able to participate, hopefully, in the next day or so. This is taking fooooreeeeever!
I'm good, thanks for the concern. It's just some unexpected car troubles. My budget was heavy on SHF and not so much on emergency expenditures this month. I should know whether I can participate by the end of the week. Sorry for the waffling!
Oh man, are you okay? Or is it simply scheduled repairs?
Do not worry about the Santa thing too much, if you have to drop out or the like let me know.
Best of lucks with your situation.
Bleargh. Sorry. Just found out I have to dump a bunch of cash into my car. I'm running the numbers to see if I can still do international (or even national, depending on the final cost of repairs.)
