My stupid temporary filling just fell out.

Had a tooth break last Thursday, they were booked until this Friday so they just put a temp filling in. It didn't make it.

Yeah, I mean I had pizza last night and Cod & baked Potatoes tonight. Not like I'm eating jaw breakers or something.

Yumm. We have some fresh from our bush blackberries with strawberries for later. Might throw some ice cream in there too.

 

[Suprtek]

doing well and you?

what happened to the daughters car?

Oh I just keep muddling along. Her car has been a problem for a while. Every time it gets fixed, something else breaks in a matter of weeks. We're done with it this time.

 

[MrsGungho]

don't blame ya.. enough is enough

 

[SEIndSAM]

Cars are such a pain in the butt.

 

[MrsGungho]

very true sam but we can't seem to live without them

Only way to get around it is to buy new, and I'm not gonna do that anymore. I resolved to never have a car payment again.

I agree with you there

 

[Suprtek]

There's some decent ones out there to find. It just takes time though. I've been looking on-line at a lot of Saturns, Hyundais and Kias. They seem to be more affordable while still being reasonably reliable.

It is possible to get a new car without a car payment you know. It ain't easy for most of us though.

I have driven Saturn since 1997. problem now is no Saturn dealers to do any repairs. They still have one in Greenwood though. It was harder to get parts for them too. Not sure if that has changed as I haven't had any issues in a few years. driving an '03 now

There is, it just is work. Took me about a week to buy the Caddy last fall. I had X amount of money to spend and wanted a car under 80K miles. Took some looking, but we finally found one.

while I like that idea, I don't think I like the consequences.
