There are times when it is very useful that I live very close to where I work, and that I have quite a lot of flexibility in my job.
My wife called and said the car would not start. I figured it was probably just needing a jump since it sat all weekend for the most part, and it has been unusually cold the past couple of days.
We drove my truck all weekend.
Got home and gave her a jump, and the car did start. We'll see if it starts tonight when she gets off work. If not I will probably have to replace the battery.
It was a bit fun, though, right before I left to say to my coworkers, "I'll be back. I am going to give my wife a quick jump."

@porwest Now you've got me, I can picture one but how to describe it? I'll have a go without googling a definition. A plumb bob is a weight attached to a string or cord used to get a vertical line perhaps when building. The weight ensures that the string hangs vertically. Howzat?

That is really funny. I remember growing up in MInneapolis and had a car. I had to go out at night because it sat outside to start it and warm it up awhile so it would start in the morning. Winter was the pits. I hope the car starts again.I certainly do not miss Minneapolis winters. My scooter is inside when do not use it.

That's not as funny as it could have been but you have to keep things clean. Did you get razzed soon your return?
