Everything Has Gone Wrong This Week

Hi All,

Do you ever get a week to forget, I think I have had mine this week. lol !!!

Every day I have walked my three dogs and we all got soaked, it has rained every day. I walk Jess on her own due to being very old, on Monday we met crazy woman who reported my dogs twice a few months ago. Now Jess is so placid and good natured, all she wants to do is sniff around.

This crazy woman picked up her small dog as Jess and I walked past, her small dog was growling in her arms, Jess wouldn't harm any one, it was laughable.

Next to my old car I was getting rid of, decided it would have a brake light failure, so I bought a couple of new bulbs. I fitted them but my car dashboard was still telling me brake light failure, how can that be !! I have now booked the car into the garage to sort out.

On Tuesday I decided to check the tyre pressures on my car, one of my rear tyre pressures was much less than the other three. It is the inconvenience of travelling to a garage to get the tyre checked out.

The tyre had no puncture, but was seeping air between the tyre rim and alloy wheels, after waiting in a queue my tyre was eventually repaired.

Now onto Wednesday, after sorting out a few things and finishing breakfast I get my two dogs in the car ready for their walk on yet another wet day. Turning the ignition key to start the car, it never happened, the engine wouldn't turn over due to a flat battery.

To say I was annoyed was an understatement, I went around to knock on my neighbours door for help. He brought his car round onto my drive where we attached the jump leads to both car batteries.

We got my car started very quickly, to my dogs dismay, I took the car for a run before their walk, to try and get some charge back into the battery. When I came back to the car with my dogs we were soaking wet again !!!

My neighbour had come down to where I was parked, he wanted to make sure my car started and I wasn't stranded. This was very good of him.

After taking Jess on her walk, I had yet another visit to a garage, this time to get my battery checked. Again I had to take my place in the customer queue, when it was my turn they put a meter test on my battery which was still under warranty.

Guess what ?? My battery failed the test and needed replacing, it was still under warranty by just six weeks. They didn't have a battery to suit my car in stock, unbelievable !!!! The garage managed to locate the correct battery which was going to be delivered to the garage soon so I had to wait.

Eventually the battery arrived and was fitted free of charge, this took over two and a half hours from arriving to getting in my car and leaving.

My dogs fit in a two door key lockable car dog crate with a divider down the middle. Today after taking my two dogs for a walk, I return home and unlock Luna's dog crate door and she jumps out, but when I went to unlock Kass's dog crate door the key snapped in the lock.

You couldn't make this up, even if you tried. Luckily no one was in ear shot as my language was not the best, basically poor Kass was imprisoned in his dog crate. After a short while I managed to free Kass to his relief and mine.

Tomorrow my car goes into the garage to sort out the brake light fault, I hope no other surprises are surfaced.

This has been a nightmare week, one of those weeks where I am doing a lot of running round but not getting anything done.

Hopefully your week has been a lot smoother and easier, unless some of you are affected by hurricane Irma.

Thank you,
