Clunk - The expense of car repairs.

Life....

Driving down the road Tuesday the transmission went CLUNK. And of course all the bright orange lights lit up! The wrench, the engine, the oil...

I nursed it home and I am now the proud owner of 2 broken down vehicles in my driveway.

I have events scheduled almost every weekend, I need to get Papa to work Monday - Friday as I am his ride. Have to get to the horses, and everything else...

Borrowing my daughter's 'other' car for now.

On line sales and these events are all I got that's going to make the difference between getting it fixed sooner or later... or not at all.

Thankfully July is a great month to buy! Sales like crazy

I love my life! Never boring, always a challenge.

At least I got Chanel to finally start sharing the couch with the cats.

Sylvester has been the bravest so far....

Blessed by God

A perfect fit.

It was only a matter of a couple hours and she's pretty much attached at my hip. Very protective, alert and so smart!

I was told she's not house trained. We've not had any accidents since shortly after her arrival. She gets her harness and whines when she has to go out.

At first it was a challenge with the cats but now that she has her own set of dishes for her food and her own toy, she's decided to tolerate the cats as long as they don't look at her dishes.

On my way to get her yesterday, the transmission went out in my Explorer. So my daughter brought her to me. Today we took a ride because my other daughter was loaning me her jeep.

Chanel was worried all the way there and half the way home. I think she thought I was taking her back.

Once the Jeep turned into our community and then the driveway, her tail wouldn't stop wagging.

She's laying behind me on the bed right now passed out. But I'd bet if I tryed to get up and leave the room, she'd be on the floor behind me. :}
