Had a fun day in the cold yesterday. I get a call at work from my niece that her water had frozen. I leave work, pick up a forced air propane heater and head to her house. No problem, 45 minutes later water is flowing.

I look at the time, it's only noon so I tell my wife I'm not going to take the rest of the day off, I'm going back to work. I had been driving my truck, (2 wheel drive), but since my wife didn't go in to work I'm going to take the Navigator since it has 4 wheel drive. Just recently bought this used and dummy me I didn't check to see if it had a jack, NOPE!

There I am sitting with no jack. I call the wife to come get me then realize I have both sets of keys to my truck in my coat. Lucky for me her Audi TT is all wheel drive so she is able to get it out of the driveway without to much trouble.

I had bought an electric jack to keep in the Audi for her but it won't lift the stinking Navigator. We head down to Napa and buy a jack and I finally get everything squared away. Not to bad, 2hrs, 15°, 20mph wind. :shock: :shock: I thought this was Oklahoma? I decided not to go to work after all :lol: :lol: Sometimes you just have to laugh things off because it could have been a lot worse.
