Mechanical difficulties.

This week is the week of unexpected happenings and mechanical difficulties. I swear! My truck decided to wear it's alternator belt out. It's a great truck, a Toyota. Did I tell you how much I love Toyotas? I had to get a smog check the other day. I have 322,000+ miles on my little truck, and still got a really great Smog check. They guy even asked if it was the original miles on this truck cause he couldn't believe it.

But this week when I've been starting it, there has been a squeaky noise when it starts. I thought it was a belt, then we thought it was the starter, but then, after driving it to Wal Mart to get emergency bobbin thread, it was squeaking a lot. It's a frayed belt (no it's not scared LOL). So that needs to get changed today when Phil gets home. So no driving on errands today. :(

Then, the embroidery machine decides to engage the safety device. We're not sure why it does it, but we'll take it to the guy again later and see what he has to say. And I can't find anything on the internet to why it would do that. When I find out, I'll let you know.

Stuff like this always happens when you have stuff you need to get done. Luckily I got all the blankets done for the girls, the coaches names just won't get put on their jackets yet. Sheesh.

I think I need to pray to the God of Mechanical things to see if she can fix it all. :) And keep my stuff from breaking down!! LOL
