I called the Saturn dealership, and they gave me the price for my car repairs.  Only 139.48.  Much less than I thought it would be.  I was even able  to pay by check so I didn't have to add it to my credit card debt. 

(I will most likely have to pay my Hu Hot bill on my credit card as I don't think they take checks and i am pretty sure I won't have enough cash to cover it.)

I will only be paying for six of my kids, since one is on a family vacation and another doesn't want to go, and myself of course.  It will be $8.89  per lunch.  I think beverages are extra.  I'd appreciate it if they would buy their own beverages, but I suppose most of them will not bring money.  That's  the way it usually goes. 

My knee is starting to ache again.  it must be that it does this whenever a weather system is rolling in.  Sigh. 

It's supposed to start snowing tomorrow around 5 pm.  And according to the Yahoo weather thingy, it isn't supposed to stop until Saturday.  Ugh.

Normally I'd be rejoicing if we were looking at a snow day on the last day of school before Christmas vacation, but with the Bolshoi trip hanging in the balance...well....let's just say I am NOT rejoicing.

Ooooh....more good news.  Kim and Ryan went to pick up my car for me as they are aids and I have been in class.  I asked Kim to check for my camera and it was there!!!  Yay!!!!

It is also colder than billy hell, so I am sure the batteries are doornail dead now.  Sadness.  Maybe Susan has a couple of AA batteries she would let me buy.

I can at least take pictures of my kids having lunch.

Wow.

That's expensive for a new battery but not if it includes diagnostics and stuff. Nice that it's lower. Sucks that it takes cash out of your bank account.

Nice that you camera was there. I've never had anything stolen out of my car. They don't even change the station on the radio. But they DO move the seat and then don't put it back.

Yeah, it included diagnostics and labor. I think they may have put in some antifreeze also.
