I skipped writing about quite a few adventures, such as Zack's acute appendicitus & resulting appendectomy right before Christmas, Christmas break spent with family, ticket for tinted windows, ect. But there's too much to catch up too, so I'm not even going to try.
Currently, I'm needing to call DSI for a quote on shocks & struts & parking brake. We noticed the tires on the Bug were wearing unevenly, so we took it to the Daily Driver for an alignment ($68). Then we received the unfortunate news that an alignment wouldn't fix the problem & needed new shocks & struts & to fix the parking brake ($1200). Ugh.
On positive side, sent a little 'thinking of you' note to sister-in-law. Haven't received a response. Am attempting to improve the relationship. We'll see how it goes since it takes effort on both people's part. And frankly, I'm not really sure how much either of us care about making it better; we've kind of just gotten used to the fakey niceness when we're around each other crap. But I figure I've at least tried to make a peace/truce gesture & that's a start. Probably never going to be that great of friends though. I think we're too different personality wise & have very different priorities & values.
