Suburban woe's

OMGGGGGGGGGGG I love that dog. I want one. hahahahaha

Okay tried something new with the bugs. We decided to really look, see if we could find out more of where they were coming from. The little buggers are fast, and apparently they fly, much to my embarrassment, cuz they made me scream and run when I found out.

Before bed, we kept looking for them, and they were on the ceiling, we would kill them, and then found they were crawling more from out of the bathroom (all on the ceiling) So...I thought maybe they were coming in the vent on the roof where the bathroom fan vents out. So....we put a trash bag up there and duct taped it, so it was closed off. And I have been putting a Coleman bug light (the real big one) in the bathroom. So far so good.

On to the suburban. I hadn't driven it in like 2 weeks or so, didn't need to go anywhere. I kept telling Gigantor to start it up make sure the battery was doing okay, but he never did.

I went to get my nails done and the thing just went click click click. We had to jump it. So...for over a week I bugged Gigantor to go get a new battery and cables. He never did. We still had to jump in for the 4th of July, but the lights and everything were real weak. So...Saturday he goes down to Car Quest to get a battery and cables. They tell him it's a dealer only item they have to order it on monday, and he has to get the vin number.

He comes home and told me he checked all over and that's the only place. So....it takes him and his "work buddy" till Wednesday night to get a price so they can maybe order it (yeah I was fricken pissed) They said for a 60 month battery it would be 92 bucks and for the cables it would be 175. I about died.

So...he says "Want me have the order it" I say "What was the price again from Napa?" He says he never fricken checked. (yup I was fricken pissed again) I take down the information and call Napa the next day (I worked over 12 years at Napa I know a bit about parts)

I call Napa and they had a 65 month battery for 62 bucks. Ummm yeah that's a 30 dollar savings. Then they had cables for 47 for each, that is still better than 175. So...I told Gigantor and his "buddy" to bad so sad, we were going to napa. Well the cables weren't exactly right, so a guy named Mo I used to work with made the right one's. Mo is awesome at that. And we got a 20 dollar refund. I was much much happier.

This morning Gigantor was putting it all back together and as he was putting the cable on the starter, parts of the starter broke off. So...had to hunt the town for a starter. Found one....150 dollars. FUCK I ended up spending 300 anyway.

But, hey, my suburban is fixed now. And I have a lifetime warranty on the starter.
Now Gigantor is in the middle bedroom trying to get the window ac unit installed. We are making sure it's all nice and clean in there. Alekx is coming to visit on the 22nd. I don't know what room she wants yet, that one or Kiddo's but either way they both have to be all clean.

I hope you all are having a good and productive yet relaxing weekend. And I hope you all stay cool.

Have a good one everyone!!!
