Days of Dealing Living: Day 2
1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV
13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
Today was a humdinger let me tell you. Steven was upset on the way to school because a computer game wouldn't work right. He was kicking some, but ended up being fine. Which is good, because the van was making a tapping noise, then we stopped outside of Lebanon. When we left, the van made like a back fire and then the tapping was very loud and the van lost some get up and go. We eventually limped our way and took Steven to school and then went to Car X. We were all but convinced that the van was done for and the motor had been blown. They looked at it and the fifth spark plug had blown completely out. Not what I was expecting to hear, but affordable. It was going to take several hours for it to get fixed, so Bryan and I headed out on foot and went window shopping and to have lunch. We spent a good bit of time walking around and doing nothing. So even though we didn't get to the gym, we got our workout in. It ended up taking longer than they thought once they were in there. The school agreed to keep Steven over while we waited for the van. Finally about 3:40 Bryan walked back to the school to get Steven. 4:10 the van was done! :) Bryan was heading back with Steven and they were all but there. We got home late, but we got home with our van. I have done some laundry and that is it. I want to be in bed actually, but I need to decompress more. BTW, if you ever have car trouble in Fairview Heights the Car X guys are wonderful. They are honest and respectful. This is my second time being there and I had the same experience both times.
Blessings:
1- The van didn't break down completely and strand us
2- The motor of the van wasn't blown
3- Car X was able to fix our van today
4- The weather was beautiful for Bryan and I to walk around in
5- Steven walked to class!!!!!!
Take Care and God Bless,

Our van that seems to like adventure and drama
