Saturday chores here too - wife wants the grill unhooked, covered along with the heater and patio furniture - I would love to watch you with that big blower moving leaves - maybe you could remember to wax or shave that big cock of allyours for me later?
Well I did just shave tbh haaaaaa funny is that I was trying to only trim but it went crooked a few times so off all the hair went yaaaay!!

Check that thread again I'm pretty sure you'll notice how it's all gone 😜
 
Absolutely pouring here. I regret making plans with a friend to go on a long walk. National Weather Service just posted a wind advisory too.

Just want to stay in bed. Sadly, alone here.
 
Well I am going to whine a bit..... having a great day.... bam "low oil add some" light comes on.... hmm so I checked to see if time for oil change and it was not. I go to the closest auto store and check my oil essentially empty so I call the shop (that closed in 15 minutes) and he told me what to do. My plan is to go directly there after adding oil.... low and behold I decide to look under my car after I added 4 quarts and it is literally Dripping out..... so I fill with 4 quarts and drive the 10 miles to the shop and as I am turning in the " low oil add some" light comes back on......

I am so blessed and fortunate, my best friend came to get me and got me calmed down and now I will wait til Monday to find out problem.... I just am a little down in the dumps.... I wish I could have just handed this problem or someone would have just came and said "give me this stress/problem and I will take care of all of it... dont worry your pretty head" alas it is not to be.....

Would it be weird to offer a ride to a stranger from Lit who has car trouble? 😂
Seriously wish I could have helped. Not for ulterior motives, but because that situation sucks.

I was rear-ended in a rainstorm a month or so ago. Close to $2,500 worth of damages but no injuries, thankfully. Repair took a month and her insurance would only pay for two weeks rental, even though she took responsibility. The unexpected can be stressful. Glad you had assistance from a friend. 🙂

I am hoping that is just a smallish problem and not a big big problem. We will see. I am glad noone was hurt

Good that you have a friend to help you out at a time like that!

Not all heroes wear capes. Hoping it's a quick and minor repair.
 
I had something else I needed to get done so I just took it in. It is hard to get under there and I didn't want to have a tow bill if he couldn't fix.... same distance to shop and home so I chose shop....
Good decision. Now come Monday morning they'll need to just push the car inside the garage and inspect it. Didn't make sense to drive it home and have it leaking there and then come Monday you'll need to get it towed to the garage.

Might be the gasket since you lost all the oil in that short time so it's not a slow leak anymore. Let the mechanics inspect it and it'll be fixed and life goes on.
Don't let it get you down.

Yeah. It will be what it is, it just is a pain and causes me to be anxious. I will deal with it and luckily I work from home.
