| So, I was taking my Grandmother to the drive-thru of her bank, and we had turned the car off while waiting for her check to cash. When I went to turn the car back on, the car would turn over, but wouldn't start. As much as I would rev it, nothing really happened. Then the stupid happened. I thought it had started, and put the car in drive. Then I realized it hadn't started, and was rolling downhill without brakes. Luckily, the road in front of the bank was clear, and nothing was coming yet. I switched places with my Grandmother so she could steer and I could push the car; we were trying to get it out of the road and into the parking lot of the Kroger that the bank was situated next to. The problem: the entrence to the Kroger parking lot was a small up hill. Luckily, some people stopped to help push the car into the parking lot. Long story short, I called AAA, my brother, and home in order to get my car towed to a garage, my Grandmother picked up and taken home, and get a ride for me from the garage. We should be getting a call tomorrow for an estimate, and hopefully I'll have it back by next Monday. Now, there are three of us to ONE car; myself, my Grandmother, and my Mother. This puts just a LITTLE strain on things around here... ____________________ I am too lazy to care about post layouts...also, I don't know how to do them... |
