Little bit of Everything

And Everything is about the right thing . . .

It started with changing my powersteering hoses. Changed way to easily for Mark and me and he HAD to say it, "Eh, What else can go wrong?". Well. Mom's waterpump in her car, my powersteering got an airbubble in it so I thought I had blown the pump up- It is going to get changed as the weather starts to co-operate, but it's fine. Then while mom was coming home from Kentucky, one of allen's tires exploded on her.






Looks purdy doesn't it?
















We ended up waiting 3 hours for a garage to open up that worked on cars(We got to mom arond 5am), the first two we stopped at only worked on trucks(and by trucks I mean the big semi's and dump trucks- not little trucks like mine). The people that lived across the road from the garage were Amish folks, and being the slightly unsmart person that I am at that hour of the morning(8 am), took a wonderful picture of the horse and buggy as they left the farm house. Then was told Amish don't like their pictures being taken. Opps. Well at least in the picture you can't see their faces which I guess is okay. Learned that Mom's dad was born Amish but chose to leave that life. Learn something new everyday I guess.



So finally get back on the road, it's almost 80 degree's outside, so mom and Aunt Sheri stick me in the Buick(No A/C), and we actually got on I84 in Penn and got caught in Traffic!:

And then the driving rain once we were heading back home from Aunts house, my truck stayed in East Greenbush with Uncle, mom was too tired to drive(And SHE was tired? What about me?) So I drove the two of us home and we got home around 6:30 pm, in that same friggin downpour, my truck got left behind. I fed the rabbits and filled what water bottles I could with what water I had in the bucket and ran back inside. Then took a nice shower and went to work-talk about sleep deprevation. By the time I finally got to go to bed, I had been up for 37 and a half hours. Work wasn't pretty that night either.
Thursday night when mom finally woke me up again, I lazed around for a little while and finally came in, bored I texted Rachel "I'm bored, Wanna chat?" and I got a phone call with Rachel singing 'Find out Who Your Friends Are', by Tarcy Lawrence, Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney. She and her mom had a flat tire out in the back area in North Argyle. I had a reason to pick up some Ice Cream now! LOL. So spent a few hours with them and got home around 1 am.(I got there about 9pm) and Naturally it was in the rain, and dark but my truck was good. Today I'm going to be using my truck to get the tire remounted and back on Cindy's truck so she's got her vehicle back. :) Well makes for a long week or so here. Maybe I'll post pictures of the horses, bunnies and Magic this evening.
