Can you believe it! Today is my daughter's 4th birthday and my car breaks down.
I'm greatful that I was able to drop off my daughter before the car decided to stop working.
My 4 year old would NOT have been happy with melted ice cream to share with the class.
So I'm 4 blocks away from her school, and a car lengths away from the intersection stop sigh whent the car just turns off.
I turn off the radio, turn off the head lights and try to restart the car again, and again, and again, and again... NOTHING. The car would start then turn itself off the moment you let go of the key.
I am very greatful for my cell phone. I turn off the car, hit the hazzards and call AAA. Then I call the office then call my husband to get the address for the mechanic's place.
The tow truck driver trys to start the car and still nothing. So it's not the battery at least he tells me. So I'm thinking the starter mortor has gone to hell. No, he thinks its the ignition switch.
He hooks up the car and off we go to the mechanic. I so love the AAA Plus Milage plan. Once there, I tell my mechanic my car died. And I thank the tow truck driver.
About then my husband pulls up, talks with our mechanic and off we go. Husband drops me at work and he heads to work from there.
Lucky for me, my office manager is letting me make up the time. So it's get off of work at 4:30, pick up the kid at preschool then swing by my office and grab me to go get the car from the shop.
WHEEEEEE what a fun filled day we are having.
