Parenting 101

My POOR [poor] Blossom!!! She has not been feeling that well lately. It's probably because I've missed a couple of weekly cleanings but come on Bloss, {give me a break}!! Her check engine light has been on for almost a week. I don't think the cold weather has been to good for her. (And when I say cold weather I mean 60 degrees or below.) In the mornings, as I pull up to the stop sign, I can hear her telling me,"Ahhh ALLEE!!! I'm just getting warmed up! Why do ya gotta do that to me??!!" Literally, she says that...so I called the Toyota dealership where I bought her almost {TWO YEARS} ago to see if I still had a warranty. Of course, it's a car dealership, and they couldn't tell me. I think the guy was going to try to make me buy a warranty for a car I already had, for a warranty I am still paying for an extension on. [It's a car dealer's way.] So I made an appointment for Blossom to see the Mechanical Doctor. I woke up a little early this morning so I could clean her out because how embarrassing would that be??? "Oh ummm ya that's just my papers, and my shirt, and my shoe, {what is this??} oh but that's my neices rubberband, and some girl's bananas [whoa, how long has this been in here?]...." I was a little nervous, it was Blossom's first Dr.'s visit so I asked Abby to come along and of course she did. (She knows how a 1st visit can go for a newby.) Well we slowly rolled into the service station and the 'nurses' were really nice. They told us where to wait and even got our information! Come to find out all Blossom needed was a few buttons pushed and WHALLAH she's better than ever! I could have done that at my own house!! (I hear that's how some people are with their first, you know, a little paranoid.) So thanks to the helpful people at the Toyota Scion Dealership!!
