Too add insult to injury it was a vw bus....

Your kidding! Your buddy named Shaggy? Lol

This is unreal Gordo! Did he park up next to your porch? I mean like within inches....?

Could someone have just played a practical joke on him thinking the leash would break or something? Just doesn't add up IMO. Nonetheless I'm sorry it happened to ya.

lol. No vw bus.

No practical joke either, i saw it go down. My beagle was on the leash believe it or not. He pulled the slack out of it just in time for the leash to get caught in my buddies leaf spring. I'll post some pics up tomorrow after the repair.

Total fluke. Couldnt re-create it

Figures I would get sick right before the camp out. If things don't get much worse than they are today, I'll survive. I'm running about 60% right now and it sucks...

I'll tell ya, I haven't felt great all week either. Stomach just hasn't felt quite right.

Monday morning I thought it was just from being overheated and dehydrated from Sunday's game. Then Tuesday I had a dry cough in my chest, yesterday it was worse. Today the cough is under control, but I'm drained of energy. Not what I need when I have to pack tonight. I've battled a little nausea along the way as well. Had a string of farts yesterday that nearly caused me to pull over on the way back from Charleston.

Just another day. Wish I was more productive but with Momma at work I had extra responsibilities. Decided to stop by the Honda dealer while on that side of town. Have only had one key for my Element since I bought it. Stopped in and waited. They told me an hour max. My son was plenty fidgety as we were there nearly two hours. Somehow in the process of making two spare keys they screwed up my ignition. Then they expected me to pay to have them put a new ignition switch in there. Had to have my wife pick me up so Garrett wasn't late to soccer.

As it stands: Went in to have a spare key made. Nothing wrong with the car at all. Now my vehicle won't start at all. Waiting on the general manager to call back to tell me what they feel is a fair way to "make it right" with me.

I told him I would be willing to pick it up with my truck and trailer, bring it home, repair it, and send them the bill for repairing their screwup if he would like. I don't care. It worked fine when I drove it in there. Going to be interesting to see what their proposal is. They didn't even offer me a loaner to get home. Asked if it was my only transportation and I said No. Probably should have said "Yeah! How am I going to get my kids to their activities now! You broke my only transportation! How can I get to work!" lol

Honda is fixed. I wont bore anyone with details. Cost more than a key but less than an ignition switch. Still sucks.

Today is Monday. Life is good, but it is still feeling like a Monday. Time to eat lunch, regroup, and make a game plan for productivity. Nobody going to hold my hand and tell me "it's okay" in a baby voice. Time to smack some happiness into my head and get on with my week. Not going to.let life's petty inconveniences ruin my day. We all have stresses and frustrations. They are all pretty much the same but with different details. We all control if it puts us in a positive or negative mood. I refuse to let the negativity in.
