Van update

So the new belts apparently aided in removal of the alternator. One sheared bolt.

It is still up on the ramps in my garage while I drive the Hubby's car and he rides the motorcycle. I hope he can stay warm.

Any suggestions for a new or used vehicle UNDER $17000? No trucks please.

Apparently he did not over tighten one belt enough

OR

the alternator was trying to let him know that it lost a bolt & was falling off...

What else can I call them? "Fun in the Sun" was soooooo not appropriate.

Sunday was our semi-annual "Clean-the-garage" day which I am still working on Monday night. Monday was "take-Son#2-school-shopping" day...yes, we shop later because of payday! I had the $300 stimulus money set aside especially for today. Get the boy some new, decent pants & shoes! So off to the stores we go- we hit ShopKo, Target, Kmart, every clothing store in the mall, Old Navy & the BX. We spent a grand total of $14 on shirts, couldn't find one pair of pants he liked and purchased lunch and a snack! He picked up two DVDs as well.

3 hours and $70 later we are home and Son#2 is still wearing those raggedy torn camouflage pants! Now I get to scour the Internet.

Wish me luck.

I'm in love!
