Just when we begin to think that we are making some progress in the financial department..
Along comes another problem.
Saturday evening we were going to check out the route i was going to drive to an appointment.
Dave was going on the freeway but asked if I was more comfortable going on the local streets.
I said yes local streets are easier for me.
So we started on our way.
I asked why he was slowing down in such an illogical place,
he said I'm not ... the car just lost all power.
Fortunately we coasted to the side of the road in a wide service lane.
Could not start it for anything. There was an AutoZone store a long block away, so Dave thought maybe we were out of oil.
Bought the oil but it didn't help at all.
SO,
We called AAA and a terrific guy came out with the long bed tow truck.
We had it towed to AAA service which was close by.
Of course, it was after their closing time of 5PM and they were closed on Sunday.
Singing praises for our son Steve being home and close enough to come and get us.
We only have one OLD car and when that dies, we have nothing.
Today, Monday, AAA called and are going to do diagnostic tests and we will go from there.
Sigh
I wonder how much more money will fly out of our empty wallet.
We gotta have wheels!!!
Trying to be positive, but its difficult.
