Yesterday on my way home from student teaching, my car died on the freeway! Luckily I was able to get to the side of the road before getting smashed by a semi and called the experts, Tim, Matt and Diet, to come save me! We towed the car off the road and bought the parts to fix it but before we could fix the car we had to go... bugle some elk? Yeah it's true, the boys (and Ron) took me with them for their hunting preparation. It was definitely a new experience for me. Mostly I just sat in the truck, but it was still fun to see the guys get all excited for hunting season to start. Matt had to take pictures of the moose (plural is it moose? or moosen? haha):
We got back to the car and changed the fuel filter, and it still wasn't fixed! We had to call a tow, thank you AAA, and go home empty handed. Now today, we found out the fuel pump needs to be replaced and the part won't come in until Monday so that sucks big time!
Also, this week Matt has been complaining about his jaw hurting. At first he said I punched him in the middle of the night, but after a few days we figured it was something else. He went to the dentist today and needs two root canals! We don't have dental insurance so we will have to figure out another solution, this might possibly be pulling the two teeth, or pulling just one tooth for now and waiting on the second.
I guess the phrase, "When it rains, it pours" could apply here. :)
