Hey, all you guys!
Here it is, Tuesday morning, and I will be headed for work before too much longer. Today, tomorrow and Thurs, I will be working, and then will have a day off Fri., but back to the ole grind on Saturday again.
We're still trying to shoot for the first weekend of Aug. to go to Indiana to visit with Lee's mom and cousin, Cindy, and to bring the motorcycle back home. I'm hoping that we can stick to that plan. Of course, this is all going to depend on if we can get the car running properly.
Lee got up early this morning, and by 7:30 had the new oxygen sensor, rotor, dist. cap, and pcv valve installed in my car. It is running great...the question is, for how long. Hopefully, long enough for us to figure out what's causing it to go out, and get it fixed, or at least get us to Indiana. Hopefully, come payday, and Sat. when Lee has a day off, he is going to try and get the brakes fixed...new rotors, calipers, and brake pads. It isn't going to cost as much as we thought....thank God, about 1/2 the cost. We can do both front brakes for about $80, but will probably only do brake pads on the right front, as the rotor and caliper looks good on that side...so it should run even a little less. I think we're also going to have to replace the strut on the left front...about $30, if Lee does the work...plus what ever it cost to rent the strut compressor. Once we get this car working, then it's going to be time to start on the buick....AGAIN...and see what the problem is there...since it just left him sitting hi and dry not more than a couple of weeks, after we thought it was running, and it was running perfectly!!! It just seems to be one thing after another...and never seems to let up. We do good to make it from paycheck to paycheck, and pay the bills, without having to try and put things on hold, in order to dump money into cars. Lord... it HAS to stop, somewhere!!!! We are REALLY due for a break!!!
I've been trying to publish a couple of my folders to the web, but for some reason my geocites info. isn't working. I'm going to contact my ISP server and the my ISP addy from them, and try using that. The web wizard acted like I could use either one. Guess we'll see what happens with that.
Well, gotta head outta here, and go hit the HOT cleaners. Hope the day goes by quickly, cause I sure don't want to be there.....I'd rather be here with you guys...you're SO MUCH MORE FUN!!!!
Have a great day!!!
Love,
Lev
