Why I'm so happy!

I'm really happy because my husband finally fixed my car!! He's really quite brilliant actually. He can fix almost anything! He takes care of all of our oil changes, brake work, and just about anything else.

Once, as I came to a stoplight the car just shut off. I was terrified. The boys were little and I didn't want them out of the car but I didn't want to leave them in the car. Two men came and pushed it to the side for me so I wouldn't hinder traffic. I called my husband at work and he came right out to see what the problem was. As soon as he looked at it, he said it was the alternator. He pulled the old one off, (right there on the side of the road!)took it to the parts store and purchase another one, and then put the new one on kissed me and went back to work! MY HERO!! I don't know why that impressed me that much but it did! He was my knight in shining armor! I think it took him all of an hour and a half.

What I also like is that he knows what he can and cannot do. We have a truck that needed an engine, so he called our very best mechanic, Mr. Greene and had it priced. But since he knows alot about cars, he's also able to tell when someone is trying to get over. (That's not a problem with Mr. Greene, though. He's as honest as they come.)

My Kia just had some problems that we thought originated with the alternator, but it turned out to be the crankshaft pulley. Well Mr. Wonderful just looked up the part, had it overnighted to the house and put it on in about an hour and did it with a fever and runny nose! My sweet baby!! He's amazing, just amazing! Of course, it wore him out and he's been in bed all day. Pobrecito!

OK so I'll get off here and go make some chicken broth! For him and me...it's all in a day's work!

Until next time,
Just me!
