My Car Died

saturday night was really exiting. Me, Jen and Laura went to the IF mall. we noticed the battery light was on a lot while we were driving there, but everything seemed fine, we had plans to get our battery checked before our trip to erics next weekend. well after the mall, we noticed some things were going wrong with our car, like the Cd player stopped working, and the windsheild wippers were becoming slower(yep it was raining, and dark too) and our headlights here dimming. so we pulled into the wal-mart parking lot and i called grandpa, we weren't sure if we could make it home so i figured we sould at least make it to grandpas house right? WRONG! we were drivign home and our lights completley stopped working, so we were driving in the dark..in idaho..at night...so it was really dark. we had just went around the round-a-bout and turned onto lincon right in front of the lincon school where grandma used to work, and our car completley died, so we coasted to the side and called grandpa, who called a tow truck. so we had to spend the night at grandma and grandpa botero's. mind you, we didn't really bring stuff for an overnight stay. so we borrowed grandpa's sweats and spent the night watching tv in the basement in lazyboys. it was actually fun. and we got to see grandma on her birthday so that was cool. but i thought we looked like old people with our sweats and lazyboys and newspapers. haha. oh and grandpa thinks it was the alternator, so i'll probalby hear whats up with my car on monday or tuesday. tony took us home this morning. so we are all ok, but its weird not having a car, how am i going to get to wendy's tomorrow?? but i'm glad it all happend now and not on our way to utah next weekend, or closer to friday so we couldnt' leave!so i think we are good to go for our thanksgiving trip. -steph
