4/30/09

I got my car keys back today! Apparently they were able to put down some sheet metal, braces and a two by four so that I'm not doing an imitation of the Flinstones. The metal bar that the drivers side seat is anchored to snapped (it was/is very rusty) and poked a decent sized hole in the already almost rusted out bottom of the car. I haven't ben driving it for a whilek, because should the seat decide to fall through completely while I'm driving 65 mph down the highway, the outcome would not be pretty. Mr. Zimmer says it's pretty badly rusted, and he doesn't know how long it will last, but the fix should buy me a little more time-I'm trying to make it without having to buy a car at least until I come back from the summer.
In other news, piano recital is coming up on Tuesday. All the kids have their songs memorized, which makes life one hundred times easier. More stories about the recital to come later, off to the last college choir practice before graduation!
