Oh Radiator

Right now I should be getting ready to go to Missy’s funeral, but we’re not going to make it.  Hubby headed to work this morning fully intending to work a few hours then come home for the memorial.  Instead he dropped everyone else off at work and headed back home because the Blazer started spewing coolant.

We’ve got a hole in the radiator.  We can buy a new radiator for $220 or we can have my cousin’s radiator shop fix it and flush the system for $75.  You don’t have to guess which option we’re choosing.  I’ll just have to put off buying the Christian books I was going to order for my Mom’s birthday until next week.

I don’t know the logistics of it since that’s Hubby’s domain, but I know there’s a hole to patch, there’s a missing plastic piece, and the plastic piece has to be ordered.  The piece will be in Monday, so we’ll be Blazer-less for the weekend.

We can get my Dad’s truck to use this weekend, but he’s working a 12 hour shift today.  I could probably track him down to get the truck keys if it were an emergency, but I’m not calling the nuclear plant and hunting him down because I want to make it to a funeral.  We’ll go to the memorial her family and friends are having to remember her later this week.
