Car "fun"
Well it turns out that having mornings off is only half great. The good part is that I get to sleep in - the not so good part is that I still have to go to work. As I lay in bed this morning I was berating myself for choosing this particular method of burning off my extra vacation time - since I still had to get out of bed and get my buns to work. Oh well, next time I will know to take full days off and not half ones.

Our car had been releasing small amounts of steam through the dash vents. It was a little annoying but not unmanageable - until today. Well now copious amounts of steam pour out of the vents as soon as the car reaches normal operating temperature. And since that only takes about 5 minutes, the car is pretty much undriveable now as it is really hard to see where you're going when you have a jet of steam in front of your face fogging up the windows. So I put in a call to our trusty mechanic - it would appear that he has closed down his TNT Automotive business. I left a voice mail with him asking him to suggest/recommend a new mechanic; I am still waiting to hear back. I am toying with the idea of renting a car for the weekend so we can do our errands - but that might be a little too expensive for my taste. We'll see what develops.

Just another crazy day in the Thibodeau household.

I'll be thinking about you all day, Trish! (so same-O same-O :-) )

Good night!
