Welcome, read the new owner stickies.
Blinking CEL means misfires, usually bad coils.
Coils plugs & wires should be changed every 30k miles.
Misfires kill catalytic converters, if you still have one, you should drop it & inspect it.
Places like AutoZone check your OBD codes for free, get that checked too.
Good luck.
