Save Money. Live Better

Last month we were without a phone for most of the month. This month we paid the bill but we robbed Peter to pay Paul. Motherkitty has not worked much since being knock down at work and she is off work on workers comp. She goes to PT next week but we have to drive one hour (56 miles) to PT because workers comp and the doctor say that is so. We have no choice but to follow those orders. In the meantime we have to spend the money for gas for those trips. Whatever. We will get by.
We went to JC Penny's to get Dancer Girl some clothes and the mama's did not like the selection available so we went to lunch. We stopped at Walmart to continue our shopping for Dancer Girl and to change our oil. The young man asked us. "Is it all right to change the air filter?" and I said, "Check it and ow by the way our windshield wipers are bad could you replace them." He wrote on the sheet check filter and wipers. When we picked up the van I asked, "What did you replace ?" and they said, "Everything was fine we just changed the oil." ... EH?

  1. I thought that it was routine for them to change the oil filter with the oil change. Jimmy always buys a new oil filter every time he changes the oil on our bikes at home. Maybe I'm wrong.

    Sounds like Dancer Girl had a nice birthday.

  2. They changed the oil filter but did not replace the wipers. The wipers had a little flap loose. It was a great time to replace them and I did ask. They never looked at the wipers or did not have a replacememnt. Ihey never said.

  3. Dancer girl and the mamas had a great time. I would have had more fun in the pool but Talon and I did get to play with some remote control tractors.
