For those who haven't heard...

We had a slight car malfunction a little while ago. Tom and I only have ONE car, which is pretty old (I think it's a 2000 PT Cruiser) and that Tom is constantly afraid of going out on us. Well, it did. While Tom was driving back to work after lunch, the BRAKES went out on him. OMG!!! But. He's safe. Even though the intersection he was at was a hill (as so many of them are here in WV), he was able to maneuver to a parking lot and call me.

Thank you, God, for Tom's safe driving ability and the nearby parking lot.
Thank you, God, that the car worked long enough for him to get to a safe place.
Thank you, God, for the TracFone. That thing paid for itself today.
Thank you, God, for the nearby auto shop and their willingness to have a car parked for a few days.
Thank you, God, also, for their policy of looking at it for free and telling us before they do anything ('cause $15 in the bank ain't gonna' do it!), even if that means 'til Friday.
Thank you, God, for making the whole neutral/emergency brake thing work well enough for Tom to get to the auto shop.
Thank you, God, for keeping him safe.
Thank you, God, that the auto shop was only about a mile from home, and Tom was able to walk.
Thank you, God, that Friday is payday.
Thank you, God, for Tom working at a place that's flexible enough that his needing to not come back after lunch was no problem.
Thank you, God, for Tom's coworker, who is willing to give him a ride tomorrow.
Thank you, God, for Jan, who is willing to help us out with transportation this week.
Thank you, God, for the teamwork that pulled us through this ridiculous situation with only a minimal amount of cussing and sweat and stress. :)

God is good.

Your relieved,
Cristy

blessings, god, car, money, tom
