Why life is never easy...

Today...clean kitchen in anticipation of two weeks worth of groceries.  Gym bag packed..list written

Walgreens first to pick up new script from doctor.  Window is frozen shut....doh!  so I have to pull forward and open my door like a dorkus. 

No insurance...expensive script...oh well..  pay, go to leave..close door, door wont close.  correction. Door closes, but latch wont latch to keep it closed.  Sigh.

This has happened before.  I used to keep a rope in the car so I could loop it around and hold the rope.  Much easier to drive that way. 

So I head to the mechanics..first turn out of walgreens is a right turn...ouch!  I almost took out a car full of nuns.  Centrifugal force and all. 

Get to mechanic..ask him to work his magic and fix it again.  He sends out jr to do it.  jr says its broken..I go in and ask if jr knows what he's talking about cause he's kinda young. Jr does....sigh....

Ok...Mechanic says he will give me his loaner car.  An eight hundred year old van with bald tires and a so so exhaust system.  I'll take it....

Part costs 70 bucks. ok not so bad...labor will probably me 400...sigh...I was saving to get the wheel bearings replaced on the dumb thing...  At least I got the grocery shopping done.
