Just a quick update… Suzie’s flight was right on time and we picked her up last night at the airport. We all watched Survivor when we got back and settled. Sorry to see Stephanie go. We have two other shows we taped (CSI and Without a Trace) that we’ll have to watch Sunday or next week. Too much else going on!
Today is going to be busy. Dad should be here soon, and we need to go get all of the food for the cookout tomorrow. We won’t be taking my car though. 🙁 Please note – never buy a Pontiac. Another window “went out” on us last night. The driver’s window was rolled down over a year ago and the whole mechanism broke and had to be replaced. The part alone is like $350 bucks (something about a regulator, Tim says). Luckily, Tim is a great mechanic and can do the work himself, so that saves us another 3-400 on labor. He took the door panel off last night and we just have to get the part and find time for him to install it. In the mean time, I don’t want to drive around with the window down, and especially if it looks like rain. So, when Fred gets here, I’m going to ask if we can use his car for all of our errands today.
Not sure if I’ll have time to blog any more today, but I might do a meme or two really quick. 😀 We’ll be gone most of the afternoon, then probably all go out to eat supper tonight. I have been hungry for crawfish and I think Suzie would like some shrimp, so I’m thinking we may head to Sal and Phil’s for dinner tonight. 
Yum-ola!!!
Update on the car and window – Tim found a part on Friday and went and picked it up at a parts house here. He found it for about $17 cheaper than from the Pontiac dealership. He got out in the garage Saturday morning before everyone got here for the cookout, and got it fixed for me! He had to replace the whole thing again, this sure is a shoddy design 👿
