AUTO REPAIRS

Today has been so non-productive! The A/C in my Jeep was no longer cooling so I took it in to the dealer thinking it just needed coolant. After a wait of an hour and a half, they tell me it needs some new part whose name I can't remember (the price I can remember!). The good news is the part is in stock. The bad news is that they will need the rest of the day to get it installed. I was at the shop, hadn't arranged for a ride so I called around and found someone who would come and get me and take me to the shop when the Jeep was ready. I signed up for the shuttle to take me home. After more than 30 minutes, I was able to get ahold of my neighbor and he came and got me. I had called a dear friend for the evening ride, but my neighbor said he could take me back. That's all settled, but I HATE being here without a vehicle, even tho I don't really need to go anywhere. Of course, what I hate worse is hanging around the shop waiting to get the car. At least at home I can get stuff done. So that's what I'll try to do.

I so enjoyed making the disappearing nine-patch totes, I'd like to try a raggy disappearing nine-patch quilt. Sounds like it might be very interesting. I'll keep ya' up to date on my progress, how about that?

  1. I so understand where you are coming from. Kids truck went in for repairs, hubby let kid take his truck, hubby took my Jeep. Like you said it isn't the fact that you have to go somewhere, it is the fact that you can't. Looking forward to seeing the raggy nine-patch tote.
