I had every intention of doing some thrifting...and hitting up a couple of rarely visited stores! And....our vehicle wouldn't start!! Is there anything more annoying than having your plans interrupted? To back track a couple of weeks....we had a brutally cold weekend....and our vehicle battery was dead!
After a boost, from our awesome neighbour...we've been running smoothly ever since. Until yesterday. Hit the push start for the engine....nothing. Ugh!!!!!! Sometimes, once a car battery has been drained...it's time for replacement....
The 2023 Canada Winter Games are being held here....so there is an abundance of traffic and people around....and the schools have closed....so the school buses can be used to transport the athletes around to their various events. Which means....our son-in-law (who works in the school system) has time off work! And generously offered to boost our vehicle to get it started!
Today....a new battery will be installed...and fingers crossed...the problem will be solved. But there went my plans to thrift shop!
All is not lost....as daughter (who has taken a few days vacation) and I plan to hit some shops tomorrow!! And lucky you guys....will get to come along!! I can tell you are as excited as I am.
Til then...have an awesome day! Going to be sunny & gorgeous here....looking forward to a short walk with Liesel (she had a minor arthritis flare up over the weekend)....so we both need to keep moving!
