Car issues
We woke this morning to rain. We had appointments with Dr. Bill at 9am. Beth was in real need of an adjustment on all parts of her body. After our adjustments, we came home and had lunch. Dawn came by to give us some bad news. The bank will not release our escrow money on the house. They say we did not cancel the contract within 7 days of the agreement. So now we have to see what our options are. Beth had to leave to go meet Jeff to do some estate stuff. I called the car dealership to ask about my truck. They said without seeing the truck, they would say it is a dead battery. Strange since I have never had an issue with it until they touched it. So I had an errand to run, so I took the caddy. And I was about half way done and the car would not go over 20 miles an hour. What the hell now. So I was able to limp home and get it parked. So I decided to take the battery out of the truck and go get another one. I decided to check the battery cables and found the negative was a little loose. So it tightened it and gave it a try. It started. Dumb ass people. So I left to go pick up Kyle and take him to class. It started several times, so it is not a dead battery, just a dumb ass service guy. We had dinner and Beth talked to Frank about the car. He said it might have a little water in the tank since it sat for 3 months. So we went to Pep Boys to get some heet fuel additive. We came home and put it in the tank and I drove it around the block. Things are working fine, so we will drive it and see what happens. My god I am glad this day is over.
