Darling, just from the sketches you've sent it all looks more amazing than I could ever have drawn it. =) *hugs*
As for the car and deciding what to do: In the long run, it might be to your benefit to get a new car. You wouldn't have to constantly worry about it breaking down or failing at an important moment, and getting something fuel efficient would also be a benefit in the long run. There are options for monthly payments that fit most budgets. You just have to feel out the right car dealer. We went to just look at cars one day and at the first lot we stopped off at (a general sales type), while we were perusing the selection a car dealer came over and immediately started pressing vehicles at us. We quickly left and headed down the road to an official Toyota lot. We were able to look around without anyone pouncing on us, and when we were ready to ask about a Scion, they had the information we wanted and didn't try to convince us of anything -- other than the benefits of buying a new car rather than wait for a used one to become available (it seems Scion owners don't want to let go of their cars. I think that's a sign of a good investment. :) ). It all made sense and felt genuine.
