Time For Go-Go Juice! - Cars...It's a Love Hate Relationship!!

Good Morning! How’s your Go-Go Juice going? Mine is still with me, but lately, it would appear I’ve needed way more to keep myself going! My car broke down this week. :(( How is it so many people can say that cars are a luxury item? Good grief! They’re almost as important as keeping stocked in toilet paper! They are truly a necessary evil, I tell you. When it broke down – it seemed like an electrical issue. But after long pain staking hours, I think it’s down to needing a Starter. Regardless, I couldn’t get it going and it was in a tow zone. Do you have any idea of how much anxiety that builds? The cost of tows today is like $200 or more. Ouch! That’s the cost of a new starter! After spending all day yesterday, it is finally back at my home and out of the dangers of getting towed, at least for the wrong reasons. Now, I have to find a cost effective way to fixing it. Have you been to the mechanic lately? Oh good grief! They charge close to a hundred dollars per hour in labor, let alone the parts. It’s no wonder so many of us pinching pennies get into the market of “Do it yourself”. Even then, the challenge is tremendous if you’re not per say a mechanic.

So, my blogs have unfortunately gone on the back burner. I will no doubt keep you posted. Surely, a diligent gal like me will get it rolling soon and I’ll be back to normal – or at least functional. Do keep your Go-Go Juice with you at all times. Everyday has the opportunity to change direction when you least expect it.
