IT'S FINALS WEEK & THE CAR IS A-OKAY

J and I both started school again this past August. J is working towards his Masters in Accounting/CPA at the University of New Orleans and I am working towards a Post-Baccalaureate degree in Homeland Security at Tulane.  Finals week during our undergrad days consisted of a lot of stress and pulling all nighters.  Luckily, things have changed since then. We still have the stress but the all nighters are a thing of the past.  Look what happens when you are studious and stay on top of your workload!

A couple of months ago we sold my Lexus to the CarMax in Jackson, Mississippi. The car had been giving me problems for years. Problems that even $5,000+ worth of repairs did not fix. I was not the least bit sad to see my untrustworthy friend go. J and I decided we would try being a one car couple for the near future so imagine our concern when his Isuzu started having issues.  The car was not consistently starting, especially in cold temperatures.  After eliminating the battery and spark plugs as the cause, J took a study break on Saturday and replaced the starter.  Voila!  Problem solved!  The Isuzu has started on the first try ever since, even in 40 degree weather.  I would like to say that I helped in someway...  does getting him a glass of ice water count?  I am so thankful to have a husband who can fix cars!
