Day 13, Week 2, Month 1

Today, when Scott was driving home from an audit, the brakes on the car failed. Last week, we paid $500 for tires and brakes on the van. We took the car in & were told the entire back brake system needed to be replaced. The cost: $630!!! I called my dad & he said that was ridiculous. He said if I paid him for the gas, he'd come & do it for free!!! Aren't dads the BEST!!!

(edited to add: dad came up & replaced the brakes, a belt & power steering fluid for $75 in parts & we gave him $200 and STILL came out ahead!!!)
