Think of a word that rhymes with TRUCK
It had to happen. All was going too well in my little world for unbridled glee to continue. As I attempted to leave the house this morning, like all other work days, I slide behind the wheel of my truck and turn the key only to be met with silence instead of a satisfying roar. The first thought is a dead battery so the son is sent to the garage to retreive the charger. A few minutes later the engine cranks and we were on our way.
I arrive at work, shut off the truck and attempt to restart the beast. Silence. This same situation happened a few months back and the trouble was a connector on the alternator. I will see if I can take the afternoon off to check it out.
We have rain in the forcast for today.
And I have a busted thumb.
And I just do not want to crawl around the hood of a truck today.
Firecrackers!
