The Car Is Finished

My son has been working hard on my car for the better part of the last four plus hours and has it finished. He found he needed one more part that he thought Auto Zone was just trying to make me spend money unnecessarily, but was in fact needed, so one more trip to the store, it didn't cost much, and now the car is finished completely and working like a dream. So he says with a smile on his face. I still need to drive it again to see the dream. He did make certain I knew to buy wires again in three months and get another tuneup in six. I just have one more thing to get taken care of that he can't do and that is get the brake line taken care of. He says they are rusted, and one is wet. He also said it won't cost much or take too long to take care of. He also said it doesn't need to be done tomorrow, and will not come between me and a new computer. So the computer is next on my agenda. I don't have anymore emergencies to deal with at the moment. Praise God! How is your day going? Thanks for reading.

We traveled 300 miles today on our way to our ultimate destination Florida. It was a bright sunny day.

Are you going to get a desktop computer or a laptop. I like desktops the best and my husband never gets on it because I am on it all the time.

Desktop. I don't like laptops and this one is driving me insane.

@Elizaby It's good if you have no problem with it. I find the cursor does it's own thing and I find myself typing where I don't want to and need to correct the text.

Glad to hear your car is finally repaired and now you can concentrate on finding a new computer. I haven't up that long but so far my day is going good.

Glad you were able to get your car fixed. I have some things to fix on my car also but right now trying to save money so I can get the parts for it.

That's always the hard part. Parts can be expensive.

I am happy for you. Maybe you can get that computer now. I still have not vacuumed and today really has been quiet.

@just4him That is awesome. Now my vehicle is overheating so it has to be worked on this weekend. Always something. Was yours contagious?

@mommaj Doesn't it always seem like everyone's vehicles have trouble at the same time? It's almost like a yawn, mention it and everyone is doing it. Sorry. Seems cars are doing the same thing. All having issues at the same time.

My bad. I read your first sentence wrong. Chili sounds good on a nice winter's night.

I agree. It gives us a chance to relax before the next one hits.

It is. I just took my younger son to work and stopped to get some necessities from the store and the car runs like a dream, though the check engine light is still on. I'm going to ask him about that when my older son gets home.

My car is being held together with a wing and a prayer. I need to set up a "go fund me" page. I keep putting it off, but have no other choice. Not looking for new just something sound that works. *be well*
