Car Trouble


This morning was interesting. We were both ready to head to work when out of the blue, our Envoy wouldn't start, not even a click from the engine!
DH, being the mechanic he is, was at his lovely maiden's beck and call.
He popped the hood, removed bracing, covers and shrouds that protect the battery area and off we went to the nearest auto parts store to get a fresh new battery.
DH installs the battery only to discover that the cover for the battery won't fit.
The parts store gave us the wrong battery!
After many expletives from DH, we returned the battery for the correct one. With a few turns of some wrenches, some more expletives and a bloody knuckle, with the turn of the key the Envoy sprang back into life. Off to work we go for another sunshiny, warm, beautiful Arizona day!
