The Anti-Midas touch

I got my car back on Monday: $250
Bus broke down again: $800 (for them)
I got my bus back later that day...priceless.

ok enough with the corny mockery. Seriously though, I almost developed a complex this week. I almost swore I would never touch another vehicle as long as I live. My bus broke down again Monday with a load of kids 4/10 of a mile from school. This time it had to be towed. Tuesday my flashing lights stopped working and I had to drive a spare again. Now my car is making a weird noise. I give up.

On to other equally stressing, but definitely more promising subjects.

I went to a class Tuesday for what I thought was going to be about flooring. No. It was about wall finishes. ok. I learned a lot and will be certified in a brand new process of wall finishes on Monday the 21st. The flooring class isn't until March 17th.

My mom and I have an art show for two days this weekend. Tomorrow I don't have to drive buses, but I will be spending the whole day working, hanging pictures, framing and matting pictures, finishing paintings, decorating, shopping, etc.

On top of this, one of my client's just called and said he wanted to pick up that website project he put on hold six months ago. Of which I completely spaced. Arggh.

Plus I had to fix my car. Oh wait, I already said that. I am going to bed now.
