I thought the 30 post drawing challenge would be a good motivation for me to blog more often, but it's not working. Along with email, facebook, twitter, tumblr, instagram, and etc., my blog has taken the back burner.
So Happy New Year and Heart Day! Things are good here.
Car trouble has taken over a lot of my stress space these past few months. It's a 7 year old Ford Focus. It all started with a bad battery. Then along came red battery warning lights that would come on and off while I'm driving.
Then my car wouldn't start. I've already changed my starter 3 times. I'm thankful for my partner who helped me with everything during this stressful situation and the starter warranty.
Yes, car trouble is stressful. It basically got to the point where my mechanic had no idea what could be wrong and told me to take it to the dealership...so I did. I guess I should have done that in the first place, but I did learned so much about my car from the battery, alternator, starter, solenoid, piston, flywheels to the engine. I even called Car Talk radio for the first time, but didn't get a call back.
The dealership came to a conclusion that I had a bad battery cable. I'm giving it at least two weeks before I'll believe that this is it and that car trouble finally kissed me good bye.
