Closed permanently. I found a pair of shoes at the PayLess in Monroe this afternoon. I’m not crazy about them, but for $10, I don’t have to be!
We got some clothes for my neighbor’s new baby, too.
I keep wanting to check out the Payless here, but for now, everything is out of the question. When I headed to the USPS this morning, the truck wouldn’t start. It has always been reliable and I thought today was nothing different.
I schlepped out the driveway backwards, but when I coasted down the hill to the street, I couldn’t get it started. It WANTED to start. I got as far as the Rebel gas station on the corner and had to call AAA. (Thank God for small favors!)
The tow driver/small mechanic diagnosed it as an “igniter problem.” He took Miss Daisy home (With me riding shotgun) and I checked out the online parts houses. That part ran from $349 to $389. *choke*
So I dogpiled it. I found a place called “junkyarddog.com” and can get the part for $100 plus S&H from CO. Now all I have to do is ask the bishop to pay my car insurance and utilities and then find someone to intstall it for not a lot of money, and I’m in bidness.
I’ve GOT to have wheels!! If I can get the same guy who changed my oil, all it will cost me is the part.
At this point, I’m not concerned about my choos, mon!
!!!
That stinks.
