So once again almost to the garage home with lots of groceries a "light" goes on. UGH,,,I swear when one thing goes they all do.......This however was not under the warrenty. A four year old car with ten year old problems.......What can ya do? It could be worse. So the conversation of asking the husband for a new car did not go as planned. I tried to point out it is "only money and ya can't take it when you die"...Yeah that did nothing. His idea of a car that is paid for has to be fixed not replaced. Well I never heard such a thing...Well I have but I am being me and if you really know me well enough I am semi-joking about being a brat.....I do value all we have and work had at having the boys learn the value of a dollar. At this point I even think they have it more down pat than I do. So after a day of waiting and waiting and waiting somemore, it is fixed. Boy do those waiting rooms remind me of the hospital....the car hospital that is........

My hubby is the same way. One day while I was living up here in NH ( we lived here for 2 years) and he was down working in MA my 8 year old Blazer (which was constantly in and out of the shop) broke down on my way to Loon mountain (I took a job in the Children's center and got FREE SKIING). I had to walk over the windy bridge in -12 weather and was almost dead when I got to the Children's Center. I finally put my foot down (with tears and all) and said I NEED A NEW CAR AND I NEED IT NOW (talk about a brat).. but it was a horrible experience. Needless to say, we went out that weekend and I drove home with an nice new (and SAFE) GMC Envoy that I'm still enjoying to this day. I will probably be driving that into the ground. Hope its finally fixed. Sometimes you have to be a brat. :)
