Setbacks!

Well today hubby took the bus to work, as he has been the last few days. He is doing this to save money on gas and so that we can have the car in case of emergencies..etc.. It was all his idea and honestly its a good one monetarily. A bus pass is 45 dollars a month, gas costs us about 300 or so a month.. Still though i don't like the idea of him taking the bus, but he takes the ds with him and plays games.

Well for awhile the brake light has been coming on, long story short we just thought it was the sensor going back, we have reasons why we thought that, but it would be to much to explain. Well i was out today, had to pick up my dad from the car dealership (he was dropping his car off to be serviced, dead battery) and i had my window down at one point and i hear this horrible squealing/squeaking while we are driving and when we stop it goes away. So i call the dealership, cause i know the car is under warranty, but not the brakes.. and they say if its the brakes its not covered, but if its bearings or whatever then it is.. Well i took it in to get it looked at, still haven't heard back. If its the breaks then its 259 per axle, four axles on a car i believe.. Well we have a mechanic that the whole family goes to and i called him and explained the situation and he says it would be about 170 and it sounds like the front brakes.. So im waiting on dodge to call and tell me whats up... if its something not covered by warranty, then we will be taking it to the other mechanics.. Oh and while its there they will be ordering a part for the "chill zone" in the car, we went to have this fixed somewhere else months ago but the car dealership went out of business.. so we just needed to take it to another Dodge dealer since thats still under warranty.


Oh and i have yet had a chance to take the outfit back to get the ink tag taken off, but i may end up exchanging it.. Aurora is terrified of the costume..lol.. I feel bad. My dad thinks we should just leave it out in the living room and see if she gets curious about it. If not maybe we will end up with the lady bug or witch one that i wanted to get. : )
