I admit today was NOT a good day. I admit I had to get the mechanic out again, another $20 for a boost. He shows up, the booster he came with was dead. I had to laugh, it was just so ironic. His "I'll be back in 10-15 min" turned into 90 minutes. Just as his son showed up to boost my car with one of theirs, one of the city by-law officers was there just about to issue me a fine for being parked 1/2 on the sidewalk, someone had called to complain. I admit I can't blame them, but my car wouldn't start, and couldn't be moved. He was nice enough to issue a notice & smart chickie poo that I am I managed to convince the new tenant to park on the outside, so now HE'S 1/2 on the sidewalk. I told him once I had my car back in, there was plenty of room to move his over by at least a good foot, but being some young hothead with attitude (OH YAY!!) he refused and said if he was fined he'd take it to court. I think he may end up towed instead since the sidewalk plows will be by and they won't be able to get through. I admit my car started, I drove all over town in impossible conditions just to get some miles on the battery and I hope it starts in the morning so I can move it to have the snow removal the landlady hired able to clear the front of the house, FINALLY!! I admit I got my groceries done at least, I was out of so much. It took 3 trips to get everything up the stairs but dammit, I did it. I also admit I'm pretty sure about $50 or $60 was stolen out of my wallet when I forgot my purse in the car, zippers opened and the new tenant and his friend moved my car. Can't accuse but I know I was short when I went into my wallet. I didn't realize I didn't have my purse in my apartment until yesterday. The car may also have been unlocked, but all my cd's were still there. I'm harrumphing over that one.
