Today I had to get up at 5:30 am so I could deliver Josh to Drivers Ed by 6:00--It was 2 degrees F in the driveway and 0 at the school. I don't know about everybody elses vehicle but my 2002 Dodge Caravan has electrical issues at the best of times but at 2 degrees things can really get weird and I never know how or if this weirdness is going to present itself. This morning it happened to be the windshield wipers. I turned them on to brush off the light dusting of snow that fell overnight and then they wouldn't turn off. I turned them on and then off again this time they turned off after about three wipes but they stopped in the middle of the windsheild. My wipers are the kind that both start in the middle and go opposite directions to the outside of the window. They were in the way. Soooo I turned them on again and quickly turned them off. They instantly stopped right in front of my eyes. I tried it a couple more times and each time they stopped instantly. I thought, hey this is cool ,they are stopping as soon as I turn them off (at least for the moment anyway). So I waited until they were all the way down and switched them off. Do you think in the all the way down position they stopped? Noooo that would be too unDodge Caravan like. They went 3 more times and stopped in the middle again. I gave up and let them run for awhile. When I reached the highschool I turned them off and they did the right thing(finally). Anyway the kid is at school and I am at home and I had time to post an entry to my blog!! So even if this is a silly post---it is all good in the end.
Make today a good day!
Karen,
ReplyDeleteThis is Alyssa! How are you! I'm excited you have a blog. How fun!
I'm laughing at your post about your van. i have a 2000 dodge caravan. Its a piece. For some reason the only speakers that work are my two back ones so I blow the kids out. We've had it looked at and no one ca figure out the problem.
Anyway, My blog is private but if you send me an email with the email you use for blogger I can invite you and you can check us out.
