A stalled car adventure
I was driving real quickly to a doctor appointment during the girls nap time and took Michaels' car out. Just 25 ft from the office, the car stalled when I stopped at a stop sign. It was such an awkward experience because the hazard lights wouldn't work (due to a really dead battery and faulty spark plug thus electrical failure) and I was stuck in an intersection. A few folks pulled over to offer to push the car out of the way but unfortunately it wouldn't shift into neutral so there was no going anywhere. Lucky for me, we are members of AAA! So a quick phone call and then the shortest tow ever to an auto garage just 50 ft down the road made everything a little better. Michael and the girls met up with me after they woke up from their naps and we were happy to find out later from the mechanic that the repair was not too costly.

Definitely an adventure! Yay for AAA too, I'm glad it all worked out & wasn't too spendy.
