The saga continues to continue

They found more stuff wrong with Chris' car once they got in to it....something about a pulley and a timing chain cover and he needs a new one but they might be able to fix the old one with a silicone patch. Or something like that.

Then they broke the water pump installing it.

But, ah-ha, the GOOD news is that the dealership is going to pay the aforementioned hefty tab to overnight a new one in. Tomorrow they'll start over again.

Meanwhile, Chris has a loaner car and is once again cozily holed up at a Motel 6 with a stunning view of the interstate he can't drive on. (sigh)

But, you know what? All is well. And tomorrow, my son is flying to Lincoln, so maybe Chris and Brendan and Michelle will all be able to get together with Michelle's family after all. That would be a nice side benefit from this otherwise pretty discouraging tale!


I did 3 massages today and am feeling the after-effects of way too much sugar for way too many days--my immune system is really compromised and i'm feeling a bit of a sore throat coming on. I'm going to plug a great product that has always worked to nip stuff like this in the bud....Futurebiotics is the label and Garlic, Echinacea & Goldenseal + is the name of the combination. 2 at night and 2 in the morning until symptoms are gone, and i haven't had a cold in a few years. IF i start taking this stuff asap that is.

Okey dokey ciao for now. Early bed for me tonight.
