so sweet

so- my sweet, sweet husband took the van out yesterday afternoon.
He picked up two boys from their friends house,
then proceeded to take my van for an oil change.
Wasn't that nice?
Then he went to fill it up with gas.
so sweet.
then on his way home, the van died.
what?
yes, it died.
it ends up, the oil change guys didn't put any oil back into the van.
nice.
so, my van might need a whole new engine- or is it a motor?
(I don't know much about it all.)
really nice.
and I am going to add to my list of things to do this year-
learn to drive a standard.
because now that our van is out of comission,
all we have is Cory's standard-
that I don't know how to drive.
yet.
sweet, no?

Oh my goodness! I hope THE garage guys have to pay for that bit of "forgetfulness". YIKES!

What a way to end a day. Hope it all works out soon.

If you learn to drive a standard, you will then have to teach me. : D

That stinks!! I agree, the garage guys better pay for that mistake. How frustrating. Liked your list of to do's for '09. A picture a day would be fun. Good Luck and happy new year!

I am ALWAYS so scared of that happening. I need to make it a habit of checking before I drive away! Make them pay!
