I really really don't want to get rid of this car but........
What're the odds really?
We leave around 6 for Lake George on Saturday morning, and by 0730 we were in big trouble. Alternator went bad. Grr.
But, all things considered, for a sucky situation, it couldn't have gone better. I was able to use my handy-dandy gps and find several auto parts stores in the immediate area. Liz and Josh took off to find one, and were able to get the part right away.
A nice little mechanically inclined man stopped by and popped the old one out, and the new one in like he was just changing a light bulb. Cool. By 10 we were back on the road.
All things considered, it could have been much worse!
So we arrived in Lake George about five last night, explored the resort a bit, had a few beverages, and crashed.
The weather sucks, but the place we are staying is nice. Nice big front porch and it's relaxing just to sit out there and chill.
:)
So that's me this week. Chill.

Tuesday, June 24, 2008
Totally exhausted, and psyched at the same time...
Wow! June has been a cruelly busy month.... But, what is a girl to do? Keep on keeping on.
My sis's and I took dad to a play at Allenberry on Sunday - it was called All Shook Up - lots of Elvis music. Very cute. :)
Sunday night I left for DC, got totally lost! I am definately a technology dependent Gen Xer...
I have GPS in my phone, and my battery died about 15 minutes outside the city. I ended up circling the entire beltway.... argh!
So I finally found it the old fashioned way - stopped and bought a map! lol
Anyhow I was there for a conference, it was good, now I'm home and I have lots to do at home and at work before we leave on vacation Friday.
Happy happy!!
ttfn friends!
next week, this is where I'll be!
