I spent 2 1/2 hours this morning getting the car fixed. Yesterday we were driving home from an afternoon of errands... dentist, alterations, frozen yogurt, watch batteries, etc. Adam pushed the button to roll down the window and *BANG* it sounded like someone hit our car with a rock. The window got stuck part way down- no going up, no going down. Just a whirring sound that is telltale bad news when coming from any part in your car.
So 2 1/2 hours, 4 magazines, and $301.29 later, our electric window now goes up and down. Just in time for us to leave it in my parent's driveway for 12 months.
Not like I wanted to spend my morning at home though. We are down to camping chairs, a card table and an air mattress. Not what you would call cozy. But it will do for the next couple of days.
When Adam was bemoaning the fact that he had to go to work this week... summer school (just to give you a glimpse into his days, he spent Thursday watching Princess Bride and October Sky... don't feel too sorry for him) ...I reminded him of the alternative. Suddenly summer school didn't sound so bad! Just one more day til we move out!
