2 years and Days 205-210: Stressful Week

Well, the baby EF is wiped out, but hopefully we'll be getting some more money back in it today. The Mitsubishi needed a new battery and some new belts. At least it waited until Tasha's summer job ended to break down. LOL! Then the little bit that was left after that, I used last night to buy a gas can to put gas in Serenity's car. We met in Perry to pick up Tasha and Serenity's car wouldn't start after. Thankfully, it turned out to just be out of gas. Her gas light had just come on so she thought she still had time to get gas. God was really watching out for her, it would have been terrible to run out on the highway or to have her new car break down already! Especially in Perry where we don't know anything about where to take it, etc.

It's been a rough week in the child care so once again I am requesting prayers for an unspoken request.

Tracy, you need to tell Serenity, and the other kids to never let the car get that low on gas! These newer cars have the fuel pump in the gas tank, and the fuel pump will overheat and quit if they don't have enough gas to keep them cool. I know the light should warn you in time, but Danny has always stressed with Mandy and me that if it gets below 1/4 tank, it is time to get gas. Those fuel pumps are expensive, too. Plus you have to drop the fuel tank to change them and that is a lot of labor. Just a little of advise.
