aarrrgggg....
I cannot believe the luck I am having with this truck....
Remember when I said it was fixed?
Yeah, well its broke again. I used it Tuesday to get boards and give boards. All day no problem. Erica and mom on Wednesday, got to Shelby(about 45 minutes away from us) do get our canned veggies and stuff (cheaper than here but we use the money saved in gas but who cares) the gas pedal finally gives us the break its been wanting to give us since we bought the damn thing. Mom and Erica WALK the 3 blocks till our neighbor picks them up and drives them the 3 miles home. Mickey the landlord saves the day by towing and putting in a new screw, Bam! Gas pedal is fixed they try again. They actually get to Shelby and are about 5 miles from home when the transmission BLOWS! There was transmission fluid everywhere! It was 98 degrees outside that afternoon with a heat index of 105! Some lady let them sit in her car until Mickey again shows up to tow them home. The truck is now in the garage where they are trying to figure out why it exploded. We had to use Mickey's truck(every time I ask for it now I ask to use 'my' truck) to get his rent money and other groceries on Thursday. We may have to use it on Tuesday to deliver. We'll see. Mickey did say that the seal let go from too much pressure but what is causing the pressure? Good question . We are waiting for the answer.
Other than that everything is peachy boards are abundant and flowing out as easily as they flow in as long as we have all the parts for them.
And that was my week......
Is it over yet?
