FTLOG - dead battery in one car, lost the keys to the other! :blink: That set me back a minute.

Roadside service showed up, then the clicker quit working. Went to Ace is the Place with the Helpful Hardware Man to get a new battery and clicker still wouldn't work. Ace Man put the old battery back in and I'd be danged it worked! :D

Went to get an oil change and they tried to upsell me on all kinds of stuff, that yes, I had done in the last 20K mi.......he said, "....and, the Pit Man said it doesn't look like your differential oil has been changed in the last 20K mi." HHHmmmmmmmmmm :idontno: Was done in the last 3K mi.

Two grocery stores and still forgot my pie shells! Dangitall!! But, it's gorgeous out, so walking Sweet Pea and then going to sit outside at a bistro.

(Anyone else have days that seem to domino?)

Honey, I have them all the time. This week's been pretty good though. I started out Monday morning with ALL green lights ALL the way to work. Usually, I can tell if it's gonna be one of those days like you had before I ever leave the house.

I had three lamps stop working on the same night. It's not the bulbs either, it's the switch on the lamps. Three???

OK - just got the other car an oil change and guess what was recommended? The differential oil thingy!!!! Think it's a scam? Used to always be the air filter!

Anyway, their card machine quit working right when they got to me! HA! I got the last laugh today~~~~~~~

That's ok. SGG can tell you--I once left the office to run some errands. I walked out to my car, got in, put on my seatbelt and sat there for a few minutes before I wondered why the car wasn't moving. :idontno:

Then I realized I had gotten in on the passenger side, and it wasn't moving until I made it move. :bang:

Unfortunately, our office at the time was next door to the Village Market, and they had lots of outdoor diners who were staring curiously at me. I was jsut too embarrassed to get out and walk around to the driver door, so I crawled across the console... :blush::roll:
