Cars........

Cars are like men....... you can't live without them and you can't shoot them. ;-p
And even when your kid is 26 years old, they still need Daddy to deal with them.
Poor Morgan's car broke down in Toronto a few weeks ago.... first thing she did was call Daddy. Then she had it towed all the way down here to Welland. (1 1/2 to 2 hours away) Thank goodness I buy her CAA Plus!! Since Allan knows reliable mechanics here we thought that was best. $2300.00 later it's fixed. She blew the transmission (stupid Mazda used a FORD transmission, piece of crap) Sorry all you FORD lovers. ;-) Now, we are talking an older car here, but we had just bought her new tires and brakes...... so we couldn't justify getting rid of it. We thought we were done with it, but just now Allan walked in the house and said, you know what... it's time to get the timing belt done on her car....... another $400.00 or more cost. When does it stop?? Like I said..... you can't live without them and you can't shoot them. ;-)

Don't shoot! Sorry to hear you are having trouble with Morgie's car. Hope all is better now. I have been having trouble posting a comment on your blog for a couple of days.
