Car Repairs and Class Complications

February 3rd, 2018 at 03:02 am

Three things on my mind today. The first is the car repair which, as always, turned out more expensive than I thought. Lots of potholes and a 10-year-old 143K mile car meant new bearings, suspension, struts, and all that. With a few additional things thrown in it will be $1700. Ugh, but it had to be done. Then there's the option to teach a whole set of new classes next fall which sounds wonderful. Except that four classes might mean four preps which is crazy-making. What to do? Then my sweet dog seems to have injured her leg a bit and we all fret about her. I've given her some Rimadyl and how that will help. I was going to hang out home all night, but university buddies pulled me out for happy hour drinks and apps. It was lots of fun for $15.

    I'm sorry about your dog, it's hard to see them hurting. Hope the medication helps her!

    Hmm, four preps sounds like a lot! Can you just choose a couple?

    I'm sorry about the large repair and your dog! Four NEW classes does seem very daunting in one year. My sister a kindergarten teacher has three new curriculums this year...quite overwhelming for her.

    Sorry your dog hurt itself.

    Are the classes new to you, or just four different topics/levels?

    Yikes on all those preps! And then adding to the wound with the car repair.

    Hope your puppy dog does OK.

    Is your mechanic completely trustworthy? I've had very friendly and "nice" contractors totally rip me off, with a smile, of course.

    Would you have the time to bring the car to another garage, just to see what they say?
