It's always very frustrating when my work week has come to an end and I am looking forward to the weekend, albeit a weekend filled with homework but nothing too strenuous, and then something happens to throw everything off. That's the way life goes sometimes, but still it's frustrating. As I was driving home from work on Friday, my check engine light came on. GRRRRRRRR. I always get anxious when that happens. I, admittedly, do not know much about cars so I have no clue why this light came on. The car is driving fine, but it still makes me nervous.
As soon as I get home, I check with my mechanic, and they can't see me until Monday morning. Ok, I book the appointment. I really don't mind waiting until then, but I did have somethings that I wanted to do this weekend if possible. I had set up some rewards in my mind of things to treat myself to in case I got my work done on time. Now, that's all gone out the window LOL And luckily I have a grocery store around the corner in case I need something. Still, it's disappointing not to just get in the car and go when I want to.
I learned the hard way, years ago, not to ignore the lights that came on my dashboard. I ended up with a dead car in the middle of a busy intersection during morning rush hour traffic...and I was in a left turn lane. That is drama I never want to deal with again, so I pay heed to these lights. So, I will take my car in tomorrow morning and hand it over to my mechanics and see what the problem is. Hopefully it won't be anything expensive, but that's life. It will get taken care of and I'll keep moving forward....just this time I'll be moving in the car!
That is all.
