How long has it been since I made ONE blog post on any given day? That tells you how busy my day was yesterday.
First, Addie had a little accident Thursday evening. She’s going to be ok . . but she definitely needed a day to recover so she missed school yesterday. Not a good way to start the new school year. If she isn’t able to go to school on Monday, I’ll probably stay over til Tuesday so Nicole doesn’t have to take off work.
Addie wanted to spend the night in the hotel with me on Thursday night and I am such a sound sleeper, I was afraid she would need me and I wouldn’t wake up so Nicole came and spent the night with us at the hotel. She was setting her phone to go off every 4 hours so she could give Addie meds and take care of her so I slept on the sofa . . not a very good night’s sleep!
During the day, Addie took a nap so Nicole and I both took naps – we slept for a good while.
Chad was off so he took Nicole out to lunch while I stayed with Addie, then he had to go out of town.
Yesterday evening I had been at Nicole’s and I stopped to get some food on the way home and my car wouldn’t start! It was getting dark; Chad was gone; I had no idea what I was going to do. There was a man and woman there so I asked him if he had jumper cables and he did and the car started. I backed it into the hotel parking space in case I need to get it jumped when I go out there. Whether it starts or not, I’ll go to Auto Zone or O’Reilly’s and get the battery and the alternator checked. It’s probably just the battery but no matter what it is . . it’s rather aggravating.
So, I’ll wait til 8 or 9 and go out and see what happens.
On the other hand, maybe I won’t do anything and just tell Vince I can’t come home . . the car won’t start. Seriously, there’s a Jeep dealer across the street and I’ve thought about getting a Jeep . .

That sorta sounds like me!!! Toby sent me to the Toyoto dealership for 4 new tires. $1,265!!! So I bought the new tires…….but they came with a pretty electric blue Prius on top of them. Toby thought it was a loaner. LOL. Don’t let me be unsupervised in a fabric store nor shop for car tires

Yes you need a new battery in that new Jeep…sounds logical to me.

Hope Addie is feeling much better now and will be able to go to school on Monday. And hope you are getting some rest too!

I love our Jeep! This is the third one we have had. I don’t know about other places but the people at Stanley’s take care of their customers! I know a friend who bought a lemon (not a Jeep) and they helped her get another car and lower payments!! I think it was a Chrysler 300 or something like that! They fought the company for her! When we go there for service, it does take them a while but they make sure they go over everything and find any problems. They will not do anything unless they talk to you about it first. I think they are a class act. In fact we are going in for our 30K check up and it is only about $360. I thought that was pretty darn good!!
