Sometimes I just want to give up!

Everytime I get the money to finish the Dart something else comes up. Fixing up my 98 Dakota to go on vaction in June, brakes haven't been up to par lately. Pulled the rear drums, leaking axle seal, shoes are worn down to about 1/8 inch, run to auto parts (40 miles one way)get shoes, drum, seals, shocks. Get one seal pulled wrong seals, look them up and they gave me for front axle, mine is just 2 wheel drive, look up the correct seals, call another parts store, discontinued item, wtf, would think they where the same seal used in all 8 1/4 Chrysler rear ends (correct?). Hop in another car back to another auto parts(40 miles one way again)they are able to cross reference and get me seals. Get home get the shoes off, wheel cylinder leaking, back to yet another auto parts(yep 40 miles again), get home almost dark, so put everything away and get ready to start again today. Tuesday it goes for tranny fluid and filter change, Friday for oil change and tire rotation, check alignment. Then need to get ac fixed.
Think I'm going to borrow against my 401 K to get the Dart put back together(I know you shouldn't finance toys)
