GRRRR! No sooner do I get motivated, excited or otherwise inspired to get off my butt and make this business work, something HAS to come along and try to slow me down! I experienced a dead battery on Monday evening, so yesterday spent a lot of time calling around to different garages and auto parts stores trying to find the best deal on a new one. Today I went to the Kia dealership (lowest price by a couple of bucks - go figure) and they recommended I get an AVR test done first. Alternator Voltage Regulator test, that is. Just to make sure that it really was my battery that was the problem. Good thing I did! The battery is holding a charge just fine! The problem? The alternator isn't providing enough power to keep the battery charged while driving! Sooooo... instead of $100 to replace the battery, I'm now looking at over $350 to replace the alternator! AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGH! The main issue now is... I can't afford it! After being on temporary lay-off for the last 2.5 months I'm tapped out! I'm out every day trying to make some sales on my own business, but companies don't make purchases on the spur of the moment. So... anyone have a couple thousand I can borrow for a month or so???
Didn't think so.

Holy cow, sounds like me. Was backing out of the drive way the other day, stomped on the brakes and nothing hardly then this horrid grinding noise. A thousand dollars later my breaks were fixed.
Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
