Thinking about how lucky I was this past Tuesday. The weekend was filled with a visit from our daughter and one of her kids from Virginia. Picking them up at LAX on Friday at noon. Going to a family Xmas party on Saturday. My daughter borrowing my wife's car to go visit a cousin on Sunday. Another trip to LAX on Monday late morning. My brother coming to visit on Tuesday. Dinking in the garage with him, and buying LED bulbs for my fluorescent fixtures that didn't work. Then, we go to take the bulbs back to the store and my wife's car won't start.
Battery takes a dump on us at 3 in the afternoon. I start to get mad at it but my brother says 'Dude, look at this sticker. This battery is SEVEN yrs old!'
We spend the rest of the afternoon getting a new battery and installing it. Then we returned the tubes and got Panda Express for dinner.
How many times have you had a battery quit on you IN YOUR OWN GARAGE?
Yeah, when I think about all the possible times it could have gone belly up on us this past weekend, I'm pretty happy.
