This has been kind of "one of those days". You know when everything you set out to do didn't get done??? Started off by taking Jordan and Janae to summer school at 9:00, then off to Indianapolis with Jordan for his ear recheck appt. at 11:45. Found out that he needs a CAT scan because his ear(the one that had the major work done on it) is still draining and he still doesn't have very much hearing(believe me I know)in it. Also found out our new insurance will not cover a CAT scan(yipppeee)---the Dr. was very nice though and when he found out we only have hospitalization ins. now he gave us a discount---instead of the $140 fee it was $68.(that was the good part of the day). I got home just in time to get Janae from school at 2:00. Came home to get Jalen to get him to his 3 yards he needed to mow since we got rained out on Fri. and Sat. Left in the truck and remember the brakes were really bad!! Called Jeff and he said just run it over to Midas they should be able to fix it in 30 min. Drop of mowers and weed eater at first yard. Go to Midas---wait 30 min. and find out it needs alot more work that we thought--you know like $350 worth! So, I try to call Jeff to get the OK. He is on the phone appearently---so the guy is just sitting there waiting on me while I'm sitting there waiting for Jeff to call me back---a little intimidating. Jeff calls and we decide to do only $238 worth of work(wow how nice)!So, while Jalen and I are sitting there I'm dying because he still has 3 yards to mow. That's when the storm clouds came rolling in---yep---along with pouring rain! So, we finally left the shop at 5:00 P.M. went to the yard picked up the mowers and came home!!!!
Oh yeah, I was going to work in the yard this evening too! So, nothing much got done just a little laundry, supper, and the usual continual straightening of the house. If I sound bitter I'm really not(ha)just a little disappointed that I got absolutely nothing done that I had planned----oh well, there is always tomorrow!!!! And how was your Monday????

Julie - it is just my opinion that stuff like that always happens on Mondays! No wonder I don't like that day!!!!
I HATE those kind of days, like--taking your van in to get the oil changed (which should only take 20 mins) and instead they lock your keys in it, while your hubby forgets his set of keys at his office and has to turn around and go across town and get them and then...we wait until the van is done, 45 mins. later, AHHHH! Believe me, you're not the only one with those crazy days, just thought I would try and encourage you : )
Been there; done that! Grrrr - when it comes to the autos! We just had the same thing happen, but I think it was $652. We found out we had brake problems.
So sorry about your day...it's kind of fun to "vent" about it though, huh? ha! I guess we ALL have those kind of days! I always think what I could have done fun with the money spent for auto repair...ya know? Oh well...guess that's life! I love Martha C.'s "Grrrrrrr"!
