  • Its been another week without a car.

     So, this week has been very boring because its been another week without a car. Yes, our friends car went back to the shop and long story short, the part didn't come in until Tuesday then due to an alarm system hang up the car took a little longer to get done then planned. It was literally mid-week when we got the call saying it was done then the hubby asked if they fixed the cars starting problem which they hadn't so he had them fix the starter issue just so that he wouldn't have to deal with the starter issue when we were barrowing his car..Yeah, that ended up costing another day of repairs and well, on Thursday the hubby didn't feel like going to pick it up..so, he picked it up today on Friday..All in all though we have managed pretty well without a car. We've also been just getting by because of the grocery delievery that we've been using..

     

     Basically, its been a rather boring week..plus the hubby still has a pulled muscle in his chest from when he had to use the cane. He's spent most of the week sleeping on the couch..Well, okay there was a few days here and there where he did try to come to bed but that didn't pan out too well. In short, we're all getting a bit stir crazy and we're all ready to get out of the house. We have a list a mile long of stuff to get done and this is getting pretty insane and out of control. We also have some of the hubby's books that need to get sent out to people as well..Needless to say we're all pretty happy with the fact that we're going to be exchanging cars back tomorrow..Yay! Oh well, the working plan for tomorrow is that we are going to use our friends car to go out to Target..Yes, the hubby hates driving that car but we do have chores to take care of at Target..Seriously, I'm sick of rewritting the list of things that we just can't get through grocery delievery.

     

    Oh and in other news, we did find the title for the blue brick and it was able to be taken away today at the mechanic for a while we thought the title would never be found but at the last minute it was infact found and we were able to wash our hands of that car. We know now what type of play car we want to get and fix up..now its just a matter of saving up some money(after all these car issues) and purchasing another one that has only been living in Arizona within the valley so we can insure that we don't get a snow damaged car.

     

    At any rate, thats my ranting for today..hopefully, next week will be more exciting..
