the vacation from hell only gets better

So..car got towed to a repair shop and they said it’s going to cost over $600 to fix and that the part wont be in til Monday!  They called while we were walking around the musuem waiting for it to be time for the movie.    Movie was great, amazingly huge on the Imax, made most of us feel nasueas.   I chalked mine & Brooklynne’s as pregnancy related but Dean said he was feeling bad too, he thought he might have a migraine.  Got back to the hotel, ordered some food to be delivered while Dean threw up some, he’s been asleep for a while now.  So I ate alone and am bored out of my mind listening to him snore.  I’ve spent some time on the phone w/ our car insurance trying to find out what kind of coverage we have.   Turns out they will pay 80% of the hotel and car rental.  Dean’s thinking about staying tomorrow night while I get a rental car from the nearby airport to get back to the kids, he’ll come home w/ the car after it’s repaired on Monday.   But we’re not sure if the shop ordered the part yet or not; we are supposed to call them when they open at 8 am tomorrow then we’ll decide what the plan is for sure.    I dont know if the car insurance will pay for tonight since we were here already yesterday but they did say they’d pay for tomorrow night, I didnt mention we were already here since yesterday…so hoping if we can get a separate reciept for each night they’ll pay for it, as long as the reciept doesnt show Friday night, even so they might do it anyway since we only want reimbursed for 2 of the 3 nights.    So with any luck they’ll at least pay for tonight and tomorrow if Dean stays.   So really….that would be great!    We’ll get reimbursed for the towing today so that’s good.  it’s the $600 mechanic bill thats gonna kill us.   Friends are gonna let us borrow some money, but I think we can get a credit card for the repair shop and just owe them we’ll find out more about that tomorrow too.

We went ahead and postponed the baby shower my friend was gonna have for me tomorrow afternoon so it’s not stressing me out to get back by 1 p.m.   Good but I was looking forward to something fun this weekend!  I cant believe how bad this weekend has gone, and we still dont have a plan for whats next.   I wish Dean was at least awake, then I wouldnt be sitting here bored!   I’ll probably just crash early so I’m rested for whatever comes tomorrow, that and I’m exhausted, I think the stress has gotten to both of us.   I think we need a vacation from our vacation!  😉
