Good morning everyone! This morning's commute was much less eventful. I am waiting on a call from the car ER to determine if we attempt to repair or pull the plug. If I have to buy another car, it will be old, cheap, large, and probably ugly. A student's car. One that will bring down the value of every house it parks in front of, but will be paid for. I will check its towing capacity, but that won't be a deciding factor. Still pain-free! Today, my boss suggested I get "sick" if I have to look for another car. Might not be a lie, stress of that level could easily result in a migraine.
Yesterday at payroll was not very productive. Gotta do better today.
Last night, I went to the Thursday evening crochet group for the first time in months. Usually DD17 is with me that night and has homework. I worked on my crocheted camper that I am using as a progress tracker for my camper savings. That may be the only camper I ever have if I need a new car. It seems Thorin's cat food is no longer being made, so I was unable to order that. It was the last day for discount season passes at the local amusement park, so I ordered those. The "water leak" I reported in the street in front of my house turned out to be truck fluid. It had been there two weeks and we are prone to leaks, so I reported it. I have great sympathy for the truck owner.
The dance studio is still closed for spring break, so no dance tonight. I have a tax appointment tomorrow, so I must make sure my paperwork is all there (probably is). MUST get cat food!
Harriet: I never assume everyone has had a chance to CUOP! I am positive my car has not been involved in any murders so the red fluid is probably transmission. The breaks didn't feel right, but it did not look like break fluid. Given the condition of my tire, I am not surprised they weren't right.
