$600.

I’m going to be selling my kids at the side of the road if this keeps up.  The fixer upper dude is mortified that he didn’t catch it previously and is charging me cost for the parts plus about $100 labour.  Ziva should be ready tonight. 

I have now spent three times as much on the car to insure it and get it running than I did to purchase it.  Love is an expensive proposition, but obsession – that’s just plain crazy.

Back to work

Jeff, being a superior sort of brother, suggested schnitzel for dinner last night so we had take out and ate on the back deck in the last warmth of the day.  This was after we went to Iron Man II (I liked it but it’s slower paced than the first one and ScarJo is OSSUM) and then I dragged Keith and Paul and Jeff up the hill to the salamander pond.  The little buggers stayed in hiding, alas.  Then said hello to Tom.

It’s going to be an expensive day, I can feel it.

I had a great mother’s day and I hope the rest of you mothers did too.
