Better To Laugh

Sometimes you are better off laughing than crying. I will tell you about my day yesterday and you decide what you would have done. It all started off when my husband brought his motorcycle in to the repair shop to install a tachometer that "was only" ten dollars. By the time the mechanism was through, there was an oil change, brake fluid drain and carburetor fix. This totaled $358. Since the prima donna mechanic only wants cash, I was angry with my husband as I didn't have an extra $358 hanging around. My husband then decided to drown his sorrows at Dunkin Donuts, where my car battery died. Instead of asking one of his family members to drive over and jump the car, he decided that the sensible thing to do was pay a stranger $20 to help him. Now he had to bring my car into the  repair shop, so he decided to add on an oil change and tire rotation. I will not know that price until later. Nothing is better than being in the dark about a price. Keeps me on my feet. When all was said and done, the day cost me well over five hundred dollars, for nothing that brought me any pleasure. The best part of the day was that my parents visited their relatives in the cemetery and walked out alive. You gotta laugh.
