Car stuff

Bit of a crazy day today - neighbor calling about rides to hospital, Andrea's tires were slashed, oil change and new breaks. Car was in desperate need of breaks, today making horrendous noise, even when i was not actively breaking. Mike agreed to change them for me (yaaay for super awesome brothers!!) But first i had to get an oil change. Last time Mike looked at my breaks he noticed i was overdue for an oil change. So he gave me a bit of a lecture. And he told dad. Who gave me a lecture. Who also told mom, who didn't give me a lecture, but who told sis. And of course she gave me a lecture, as well as telling Matt, who also gave me a lecture. Sooooo. Oil changes, yeah yeah i know must do them in a timely fashion. And I'm so bad at keeping track. I use all kinds of online calender stuff- i don't know why i haven't set a reminder for myself. Suppose i'll go do that now....ok done. So anyways, got oil change, a free one thanks to mom's freebie card. After work drove up to Mikes. Taking the road down burrough valley was soo not fun without good breaks, coasted down it in 2nd gear.

Was nice to see my brother, Mandy was out riding the horse, and Mike had Mark with him, the other kids were at Mandy's moms. I had to try to keep Mark happy while Mike worked. I really have little to no maternal instinct. As in the instinctual ability to figure out what to do with a baby. I think they can sense it too. Kinda like how some animals can sense fear. Makes babies cry when you just look at them. Anyways, he was content for the most part as long as i pushed him around the drive way in his little stroller thing. Well not like a stroller, thing had like bicycle wheels, good for bumpy mountain dirt driveways. Eventually Mandy came back up and took the beastie from me - which was good since rolling him in circles had begun to lose its appeal to him apparently.

Mandy's mom drove up and the kids jumped out, Mac in just his underwear, he looked at me and said: "look what i'm wearing! My underwear!" I responded: "Yes i see that, what happened to your clothes?" He said: "I tooks them off!" then he ran off to his bike and took off down the drive way riding his bike in his super hero underpants. Ha silly beastie. Mike finished my breaks, soooo nice to have them working. He even sent me a cute email. Yay for nifty brothers.
