Today we headed north to have lunch with my grandmother, mother, and sister. We originally had planned to do this last weekend, but with sick kids we rescheduled. We were all bringing food, and Abby was even going along with us. I was looking forward to the afternoon.
Unfortunately, we developed van trouble on the way up to Grandma's house. By the time we got there, there was a hot smell coming from the vehicle and I was afraid to drive it the 60 miles back to our house. Both my mom and sister, who have extra vehicles, had a car in the shop so we couldn't borrow a vehicle from them. My grandmother very graciously offered us the use of her car, but I hated to leave her without a vehicle. However, Andrew pointed out that he had his lesson planning finished for the week, and it would be easy to get it back to her this evening. So, that's what we did. I certainly didn't plan to be in the car for 240 miles today (nearly a trip to my in-laws!), but I am grateful that for the most part things have worked out. Now, we just wait to hear the verdict on a diagnosis and cost!
