Comical Car Problems





The work week was relatively easy compared to our weekend. We had so many car problems that it became comical. On Saturday, I headed out to go to a baby shower. I was excited to see some girl friends and get out of the house for a couple of hours. I dropped Rusty off for a haircut and then stopped by a baby store to buy a gift before going to the shower. My car wouldn't start and luckily a nice couple had jumper cables and started it for me. The weather was so hot that it fried the battery. I tried to call Andy but he wasn't answering the phone. I stopped by the house and picked up Matthew so that we could spend some time together while Andy stayed at home with Audrey sleeping. We dropped off the car and Matthew got a haircut. The car got fixed and then we headed home. On Sunday, Andy noticed that he ran over a screw from our new garage construction. He took his truck in to the same firestone and got it fixed. There were little things that needed fixing around the house and it felt like we were busy just chasing our tail. I think we were both ready to go back to work where things are easier. LOL
Our road is under construction so there is dust everywhere. Andy's sprinkler head got busted from the construction. He was watering the plants and all the dirt turned into mud. Then Rusty tracks the mud in the house so Andy has to scrub the carpet. Matthew has been peeing in his bed lately so Andy spent some time cleaning the mattress with hydrogen peroxide among other cleaners. Matthew accidentally spilled orange juice in the kitchen making a sticky mess. And while Andy was getting ready for work yesterday, Audrey pooped and it got on Andys dress shirt. It was a weekend of comedy of errors!

After I wrote this post, Andy's air conditioner went out on his yukon. He sat in the hot car on his ride home from work on Tuesday. Matthew was in the car and they both arrived at home with red faces and ready to jump in the pool. Andy took his car into the shop and they fixed it. What next!
