Sensei  Sin City |  Subject: RE: TAN # 192 - A unique welTANschauungcgregg - 2013-01-15 1:03 PM Kido - 2013-01-15 3:43 PM Car trouble... We JUST got major service done on Sat. everything looked good. Car sat all day Monday and the battery was completely dead that night when the wife needed to drive to LA. I jumped it figuring we left a light on or something all night/day. She got to Barstow and stopped for a burger and the car wouldn't start again. She was mad and panicking but I talked her through getting a jump from a Burger King manager, then drove to an Autozone with 10 minutes to spare before they closed and they swapped out the battery which seems to have done the trick. The other one was only 2.5 years old though. I'm just grateful I didn't have to drive to Barsow to rescue her. Ugh, that bites. Hopefully that does it and the alternator isn't the real issue.... otherwise, the car will be dead again soon enough Autozone tested it. Only 10amps when the car needs 12. Plus I don't know if she get's from Vegas to Barstow on a what was basically a dead battery. I guess it's still a possibility, but we will find out in the next day or two if the car doesn't start. |

I am trying to decide if I take the kids out of school for the funeral which is 5 hours away. I am definitely going, but debating on whether to take the kiddos and wife. I hate funerals... |

Champion 12759 Chicago | Subject: RE: TAN # 192 - A unique welTANschauung I had two babies and really did not find it all that eventful, though my babies were both under 6lbs and labor was a proud PR of 36 minutes, first one was 54....quite an improvement!!! But to be fair, I was ridiculously sick and threw up every day for 9 months. |

Once the funeral is over, have a little family bonding/fun on the trip, if possible. Maybe do things grandpa would have liked? |
