Ha ha....Funny, God...

I had one of those moments today. One of those moments that you just have to step back and laugh. when you realize that God can have a strange sense of humor.

we've been having issues with a Nissan Sentra that we bought about 9 months ago. what started as a "minimal" issue ($550) quickly grew to semi-not-unbearable ($1750), then finally rounding out at "holy crap! that's half the cost of the car!" ($4000) in the span of about 4 days. i got that call today from the mechanic. at first, as you can imagine, i went into panic mode and almost had a breakdown...only to have time to cool off and think rationally about the situation. "God's got it. He's bigger than my car problems...we still have a great car (Pathfinder) that works..."

I walk out of school to get in my car only to find that i have a flat tire. i don't know if it was nerves, or sheer irony, or what, but i just started laughing.

"Thanks, Dad."
