Auto mechanic???

PLEASE!!!! give me a break!!! Ok, so about two weeks ago or so Marks car quit, needs a new battery. The battery his car takes you ask?? Yep, $70. GO FIGURE!! we have been saving gas which is a whopping $4.09 here in the Big Sky country. This week my car broke. Yep, the cable that allows it to shift into gear is broke in half. Is it a conspiracy? I don't know. Well, the labor alone on that is $85 an hour. So alas, we're driving Grandpa Ockey's pick-up. (less of a gas hog than Grandpa Whitfields). I feel so "montanaish" driving around in a pick-up. Perhaps I should go out into the weeds and pick a stalk to some unknown vegitation and stick it in my mouth...no, actually I'm really thankful that we have our family around who are willing to help us out.

On another note...Mark took this entire next week off. After doing so, he told me he was jealous that I was going on a cruise and will be vacationing for about 2 weeks. He's taking this week to do whatever he pleases and I don't think he'll allow any "chores" during his vacation time. At least the price of gas is to high and he won't run off with some bimbo named Bambi or something. He-he-he...

Morgan is a HUGE nut!! that's all I can say about her!!

well, I'm home alone (I just got back from the Boulder church meeting) hince the reason I'm alone. Mark and Morgan are at church. I guess I should be doing something more productive but...I don't want to.

I'm now outta of anything else to say so I better go and...I don't know, do something.

That really blows! How could both cars be down at once? Maybe the stars are very out of alignment or something . . . So Mark's taking the week off, eh? Hmm . . I see lots of fishing and then boredom :). Have fun!
