Having a trustworthy mechanic makes car repairs so much better, doesn't it? I've used the same guy for years, he understands my paranoia about axles, wheels, etc and always gets me in right away. He's always very thorough when he checks out the problem, and explains things in words that I can understand. I had a tie rod break while driving once, and it turns out that you can't steer if one breaks......I ended up going over a 30 foot bank, landing on the drivers side in a creek. Ever since, if I hear the slightest odd noise, I always get it checked out.

I'm really glad you had on that pretty swirly dress.....maybe I should get one! :)
That's a terrifying accident Sunny - glad you're OK. Kind of worries me - the first scary mechanic said something about pulling the axles off and I just had to get a second opinion. I hope the second guy is right.

You most definitely need a swirly dress.

Thank you. I just had it stuffed.


Your poor cat! I hope that big stick didn't hurt her too much! The mechanic was an interesting choice.;;D

:lol: You're killing it today!!

I've got a fight between me and my brother, i'm trying to make him realize why i added the password in my laptop to him to avoid addiction in one of my games there. He just shout at me and when i reach the limit i said "i've been there, i've done that, i know much about the effects of game addiction than you so shut up."

You tell him Sam - moderation is the key!

I understand the anger and frustration.......but please don't allow too much time to pass before you make up with your brother.....

I'd give my right arm just to be able to hug my brother one more time......

I told him that a while ago that he cannot play it daily, with or without me after we did not talk for whole night (because of my headache and anger) and he did not understand me. I speak so soft at that time, like i'm out of my own character. Okay to make him realize it, i explain it to him while giving him a book about plants and animals and still did not get my point (that resulted that i did not do what should i've done tonight using my laptop). I talk to my mother :

(non verbatim)
Me : ma, you talk to him, i don't understand why if i get angry, i'm the one who needed to adjust, and if he gets angry, WE are those who needed to adjust rather than him (okay, i was older by 5 years to my bro so i don't get it)
Ma : the problem is, you don't know how to get angry, you're always smiling so sometimes, we cannot take you seriously
Me : *shrugs*

Sometimes, i don't know how weird my family was.

Don't worry Sundrop, if my bro gets angry, tomorrow, he would be fine, like nothing happened yesterday, except if he asked me again and i did not allowed him to do it.

Well I'm about to turn the thread back again. Skip if you want...it's just venting.

One of my brother's has never acknowledged any of my grandchildren. Not a "congratulations" never a "isn't he cute". Nothing! Nada! In fact when the first was due, he and his wife came to the city and were out with my sister and other brother. Though brother didn't ask, sister told him about the baby shower for my soon to be born first grandchild. I had mailed them an invitation though I hadn't known they were coming to the city. After they got home, his wife called and said she didn't get the invitation til they got home. (I already knew my sister had told them while they were here.) No congratulations. No hope the baby is healthy. Nothing! Nada!

They skipped the next two as well.

Then their daughter had a baby. He sent me pictures by e-mail. I decided to not lower myself and I sent him a congratulations. I said how cute she was.

Then my other son had a baby. I sent him pictures by e-mail. Nothing! Nada!

My next grandchild I didn't even tell him. Pictures get posted on Facebook....he ignores them. Nothing! Nada!

There have been posts about my soon-to-be. Nothing! Nada!

Today our nephew (his nephew, not his son) posted a pregnancy announcement. Guess who sent congratulations.
