You'd think ~
You'd think with all the crap about the floors that we've had lately that we'd get a break.
But nope.  Seems that my car didn't pass inspection cuz of a light bulb in the third OPTIONAL break light in the rear window.  So ok... hubby says we got time, and we did.
We had problems with the electric windows Monday into Tuesday.  They wouldn't roll up.  Oh and did I mention the constant RAIN we've had on Monday and Tuesday.  Three out of four windows were open Monday and Tuesday, and the electrical wouldn't work to get them back up.  So we had to purchase a car cover for the car so that the inside wouldn't be soaked to the bone.  We don't have a garage and my brother in laws garage is not functional for storing a car. 
So now we have to pick up the Hubby's car from the mechanic  (oh forgot to mention that too huh.. see, he put his car in the shop cuz it's 12 years old and has over 195,000 miles on it.
Switch the Hubby's car at the mechanics with my car so that they can fix the electric windows, and tweak the light in the back so the car can pass inspection.
They do, we pick up around 1pm today.  Hubby goes to the state inspection and turns out, he's got to go through the entire inspection process again.  They won't let him just verify that the light was fixed and pass him like they used too.  He's got to go through the whole riggamarrow.  He calls me very VERY unhappy.
He then calls me afterward absolutely livid.  Now we failed for emissions and if we don't get the car reinspected by tomorrow the 31st, the car registration gets revoked and we'll have to apply and pay another 60 bucks for a new one.  Hubby is late for work, so he runs like a mad man and we'll figure it out later.
I call Midas, they can fit me in tomorrow morning first thing, but they don't do state inspections.  I tell hubby, he says try STS, I call STS, they do do.  AND they open at 7am.  That's freaking early!!
Hubby says he'll be there when they have the key in the door at 7am.  They usually have cars that are waiting in the lot to be worked on.  You know how people will drop a car off and drop their keys in the drop box so it can be worked on the next morning.  Well he wants to be there so that they might be able to work on my car at a decent time.  All so he can be sure to leave for work without running around at 2pm.
This is the plan for now. 
So with the car business, both his and mine, some bills are gonna have to wait to be paid this month, and maybe next.
Fun Fun Fun.
