Hi all,
I just wanted to let you all know what has been happening with our old, falling apart, run down cars. Well it seems that the only car able to make it to the city and back, besides the truck, is falling apart. The brakes locked up on Darryl tonight when he went to get a few things at the store. So he took it all apart and it seems that the rotor is gone, that if we get new brake pads on it, they will be wasted in a short period of time, so can't drive that car, cause we don't have a replacement rotor for it! UGH! So now we have to fix the Plymouth, which is gonna be my car. Well it needs the radiator and water pump changed out on it, so Darryl gets to do that tomorrow morning, so i can at least drive it. We did a couple things to test the radiator and water pump, both are gone, but luckily we have another car here that is so much like the Plymouth, that we can swap parts and they will fit. Which in a way is a good thing, so Darryl is going to change out both radiator and water pump in the morning before he heads down to the yard. The truck is turning out to be more work then what we planned on, or knew about, so kinda frustrating on that. The only thing the lady told us was that the arm that controls the wheels on the drive shaft. We immediately changed that out so that he could drive it, and then she was supposed to mail us the title. Well every time we see her, she forgets to mail it to us, and we have to have the title on it, to get the tag renewed. IT was due the last day in APRIL!!! GRRRRRRRR! Come on lady either find it or request a new one it's not that hard! So still waiting on that but officially he is driving illegal until he gets the title on it. I might just have to call and remind her that we have to have it before the end of may, or he can't drive the truck until we get it. We have insurance on it, but we have to get the title done on it. It's frustrating when you take someone's word that they are gonna do something, but then you seem to have to wait, and you suffer the consequences for their actions!!!!! We hope that once we fix the radiator and the water pump that my car will be able to make it down to the yard and back, we get paid on the 21st, which is a monday, and Darryl will be in Chicago! So I have to have a car that will make it down and back, or we won't get the paychecks til Darryl gets home on Thursday night, Friday morning, and that will not due! Got bills to pay and all. So I am praying that everything works out good with that! Well can hardly keep my eyes open, so going to bed now. Will write more and let you know how things go tomorrow, Mother's Day, and also keep you up to date on everything else that's going on! I just can't believe that the kids only have a couple weeks left of school. I will write more on that tomorrow. You all have a great night, take care, sweet dreams, and i will catch tomorrow sometime! Hugs ~ Jilly
