Start, please, start!!!!

Did you know that when it is cold outside and you have corrosion on your battery posts that your vehicle won't start? Did you know that when you change the headlamp in your car that if it is a certain kind of bulb, you can't touch it with your bare fingers because it can explode? Did you know that if you are replacing a brake lamp in your car, truck or whatever, that it is hard as hell to get the red cover lens off without breaking a nail or six? How about when you are jumping your vehicle because the battery posts were corroded and it wouldn't start and it is frickin' assed cold outside---did you know that you can't be touching ANY OTHER part of your vehicle while you're cleaning off the corrosion------ and you're touching the posts...well, you can...but you'll only do it once. (Thanks, Daron!)-Oh, and your hands are frozen- and you can't feel your fingers because it's the middle of JANUARY!!!!!!! So, you see how my week has gone automobile wise...Guess where it's going on Tuesday when everything opens up...yep, that's right...to get a tune-up...a tune-up that I WON'T be attempting myself.
Post Script: All of this happened on different days this week while John was gone. I did successfully get the headlamp changed, and the brake light changed all by myself. I'd watched Daron do it before, so I had an idea of what I was doing.  I didn't, however, get it started. My bro-in-law, Daron Nall, came over and finished cleaning off the corrosion and jumped it for me. I repaid him with hot coffee and a piece of cake I baked last night. It's good to have family close by!!!
