~Is it a sign?~

Noting that one of the major annoyances in my life right now is my car...the Cadillac SRX...it would only be normal in my life for something to go wrong yet again with this vehicle.

Late this afternoon, only hours before leaving for a week long vacation, this car decides to basically blow up...antifreeze spraying everywhere...oil leaking at a rapid rate...and smoke. This definitely could not be a good sign...so, after hours of the service people trying to fix it, we finally made it to the owner's office...who, of course, was not that helpful. Anyway, we must return tomorrow to see if it is fixable or if we will have a loaner car for the trip...I am betting against both...but, we'll see.

So, the question is...Is it a sign? Is this a sign that we should stay home, tend to other matters, spring clean, organize, rest...Or, should I just chalk the entire experience up to the fact that it is Friday the 13th...??? Who knows...I guess our fate rests in the hands of the so-called service experts at the dealership who will potentially fix this issue before 9am...to be continued...
