Car Trouble

I have so much to write about, but I want to add pictures. I simply do not have the time to manage that so I'll just write a brief note about ...well obviously car trouble. We just fixed a few "minor problems" on Jesse's car and I thought I took it pretty well. Things happen. EXPENSIVE things, but still it's just money right? Well guess what....today the kids and I got stranded at Exxon for 45 minutesish. I went after a long day to get gas and then my car wouldn't start. Apparently Saturns are known for ignition trouble, but have never recalled them. Mine had been acting up on me a little, but always started after a try or two, but this time I kept trying and nothing. I had three hungry, cold and tired children. They were very good though considering, but my goodness is that a big deal for them. Actually Hailey was great, but the two big kids were very aware something wasn't right.) I felt terrible. Then of course Cade had to use the bathroom so I took all three kids in the cold rain, to the bathroom where they preceded to touch things (what isn't nasty in a public bathroom).Luckily, my Dad came and helped us out. He got the car started and I got home. I have no idea if the car will run tomorrow, but Im just happy to be home safe and sound.
