And then again begin

I have my car back again! Minus the few days in the middle when I had it before it died again, it was in the shop for 11 weeks. All appears to be in good working order now. I hope it's fixed for good this time!

The Saga Continues

So I very excitedly received my car back from the body shop on Nov. 8, almost two months after hydroplaning and smacking into two concrete barriers on a busy interstate during morning rush hour. It didn't seem to run quite right, but I wasn't sure. I decided I would contact either the body shop or the dealership as soon as was feasable to have them check it out for me. I didn't have time to do this before I had to take the car to Addison, which is just North of Dallas, for two days of training paid for by my university. While there, what should happen, but that my car dies. More than that, my cell phone also is on it's last legs, and the only charger I have with me is the car charger. Needless to say, Tuesday was very stressful for me as I tried to contact the guy who had been working on my phone to let him know what happened and yet save as much of my phone's battery as possible. The car guy was wonderful, sending a tow truck all the way to Addison to take my car back to the dealership, where they were to have fixed the mechanical problems before, and arranging a rental car for me while I attended my training. What a crazy couple of days. I'm in a rental still, but I like this one better than the first, so at least that is a plus!

So ... 59 days after my car decided to visit some concrete barriers, I finally have it back! Yay and happiness! :)
