Well I have been gone from this blog for a little while...I AM BACK! I feel like I have more to talk about in the winter for some reason. Maybe because we are inside starring out the windows thinking. I don't know but whatever. I love to share my thoughts,life,days and fun stuff so like I said before I'm BAAAAACK!

ok So Saturday Lauren sent me a text that her car was acting crazy. Great anyone who knows me well will know that is an instant stresser for me. I do not like to break down in any way. Yea I know really who does BUT I start to panic! I have always been that way and honestly its not so much the breaking down it is being slammed into by a driver not paying attention. OK so when she said her car was not "acting right" I thought oh great it has to be something easy. Well they pulled up and that thing was so loud! I swear to you it was like 15 angry men sat under the hood with hammers beating the engine. They couldn't get the car over 50 on the highway and it was struggling bad. Well my husband is ALWAYS great at fixing everything and I could see the look on his face. You know the look right? The OH GOD THIS ISN'T GOOD LOOK. The ones Dads and Husbands get when they know the outcome but don't want to say it. Well we just knew it was the end of the road for little "Sally" yes her name is Sally the Saturn. He tinkered with it,turned stuff,looked,scratched his head and shut the hood. I don't ask much other than "how much will this cost?" He just shook his head. So I began to imagine dollar signs flying out of our pockets. He started the car back up,which left huge black marks from the exhaust in the driveway. It didn't want to move but we finally get it on the street. I know way to many details but 2 days later and the car starts up and is FINE! What the heck is the deal with this car? How can it be fine after that? I think it is a sign to trade it in and FAST!
