Bad trip! Sunday afternoon drive turned out to be depressing. Eh paano ba naman natikitan na naman for the second time!
 Noted sa summon ticket ‘ran a stop sign’. And daya ng lespyak na yun. Eh huminto naman ako eh! Yun nga lang hindi full stop. Nag glide lang ako kung baga eh slight stop. Ngek! mayroon bang slight stop?

Tangna naman! Bayad na naman sa municipal court yan!!! Mahina $100 para sa moving violation na ito. Putris talaga.
Ska this time aminado talaga ako na kasalanan ko. Talagang nag nag-aabang yung alagad ng korte para makaipon ng quota nila. Ahhh busit talaga!
Sa kakatipid ko sa ibang bagay sa wala lang mapupunta ang pinag iipunan ko? Leche!!

 Kaya sa inis ko napa punta tuloy ako sa Best Buy at bumili ng Western Digital Passport USB Portable Hard Drive (120GB 2.5-inch, 3.5 in width, 5.7 in depth, 0.8 in height). 
Inisip ko na lang na bumili ako ng isang bagay na mataas ang presyo. At least medyo nabawasan ang depression ko that day…

Finally got around in getting the expedition for state inspection. Buti na lang at pumayag ang may-ari ng kumpanya namin na maging company holiday ang president’s day. Daming naging activities.
Nakapag-shopping ng konti kasama ang jowa ko at nakakuha pa along the way ng pang-wall decoration sa kirkland.
1st day din ng dalawa kong anak sa trial period ng taekwondo nila dito sa area namin. Grabe din ang presyo ng ganitong activity. Few years
ago wala pang tasingkwen ang isang buwan. Ngayon rereglahin ata ako sa bayaran!

Took an extended lunch today and drove to my bayaw’s house to pick him up.

He had called me yesterday that an new engine is needed and he already found a surplus engine. So we went to Eric Engines and waited for a few minutes while the owner was chatting on the phone with another customer. As soon as he hanged up K. Jess asked for the Honda Accord 95 engine non-vtech b/c he previously spoke with the owner and they said they have it. We were a little PO’d when the owner said that he made a mistake and thought we were asking for a vtech.  What a dyk!
So I took K. Jess back to his house and he started making calls. Then his contact from that same store called him and said that the engine is ready to be delivered. Yea. we were confused. But got it squared away with the owner and I’m out of pocket $500+. Still in the practical way of living I’ll still be better off rather than scrapping the whole car. So next expense on the list- mechanic’s labor cost.  aaayyayaaayyy….

Damn! Yesterday afternoon just right after we visited Daddy from VA Hosp. we had to stop by Mama’s house to pick up the Honda. On the way back home I had to take the freeway. My two daughter was with me and we’re not even a few miles out when the car started to act funny. Don’t know nothing about cars but I can feel if something’s wrong.

Then suddenly there was a loud humming noise and the engine just stopped! I switched the emergency lights on and tried to get to exit at the nearest ramp. Didn’t make it and the car just stop just at the worst part of the exit ramp! There’s a lot of crazy drivers out there and at that time all it takes it just one stupid driver not paying attention on what they are doing and we all be going to the hospital.

Good thing I have an AAA card and a celphone. Requested an emergency service tow and a police assistance. AAA in turn quickly responded and notified the local Police Department and a squad car was dispatched right away. The officers parked his squad car a few feet behind me and stayed with us until the tow truck came. I thanked the officer before we left and head out to the local mechanic shop.

It was quite a scare for me and my kids but thank God we’re all ok. -whew!-
