Thanks for nothing..

So everyone who just happened to drive past the intersection of Bosque and Valley Mills today at about noon and saw a broken down van ... thanks for nothing. 40 minutes in the hot sun and no AC later, Ashley finally saved us. I was amazed by the amount of people that, when the light was red, rolled down their windows to ask if we were having trouble. Nah, we're just airing out the engine. Of course we're having trouble. Why else would we be sitting at the light with the hood up? Out of all the people that drove by only one guy tried to help who looked a lot like the guy from Pirates of the Caribbean. I kept staring trying not to be too obvious. So thank goodness, the Chrysler 300 has the battery in the trunk. This is the second time that Ashley has saved the day ... or I guess attempted since the first one wasn't actually successful. On the plus side, I'm getting great at using jumper cables!

  2. We had just dropped the client off at the hospital. The van has been having a lot of problems lately. In fact, we had to jumpstart it just to get it going for our trip. Seth had me bring the jumper cables with us just in case. It was SOOO hot out yesterday!
