Jury Duty

I have a dead car battery. Again. Yesterday, when I went out to my car to go to my home health visit, I noticed I had left my car door partially open overnight. This meant the car light was on, which left the car not running. My sister came by and jump started my car. I turned the car light off so I wouldn't have that problem again. Or so I thought.

I had actually turned the car light from "door" to "on". I went out later to start my car and once again had trouble. This time I found a friendly neighbor to help so I was on my way to my rescheduled speech therapy schedule. Later I stopped at a couple of stores and my sisters and was able to start my car fine every time. So I thought nothing more if it.

This morning I had an 8:40 doctor's appointment. One that I've already had to reschedule due to my previous employer not turning in my health insurance information on time so I could get continuing coverage. I went out to my car, put the key in the ignition, turned it, and realized once again my car battery was dead.

So, I called the doctor and cancelled. The earliest appointment is 2 weeks from now. And it looks like I'll be going to get my car battery replaced today.

On a positive note, my apartment complex finally decided to do something about the damage in my apartemnt. They repaired some of it yesterday and are coming by today when I am home so I can show them the rest. And I'll definitely be home since my car won't start.
