So just when we thought that things were going really well, things fall apart. We decided to do something nice for some friends by trading vehicles with them. Their daily driver was in need of some work and being down on their luck with the truck we decided we would trade them for our truck. They picked it up last weekend, it was running great, and went home with it. Got in it that night and it wouldn't start. On a side note, this was the truck that was involved in the accident and was inspected by the police and needed the brakes fixed and a provincial inspection. Jonathan did all the work to get it up to snuff and his co-worker finished up the paper work for him. So our friends had to take it in to a shop to get it fixed and the mechanic noticed it had an inspection done. For whatever reason he was under the truck, which had nothing to do with the truck not starting, and noticed some rust. The mechanic told our friends that because the truck was just inspected and the rust was not fixed, he had to report it to the inspection department. So Jonathan and his co-worker could be in a smidge of trouble. We had the truck inspected in Swift just in July and there was not mention of this "rust" nor in the police inspection. So we really need prayer that Jonathan and his co-worker will not be in serious trouble and that something good will come of this for our friends. I hope this makes sense, as it's a bit of a complex story. The last few weeks have been really trying for us and we are very discouraged with this happening.
Then to top it all off, we may not be able to buy in the trailer park we are the most interested in because our dog may be too tall! Yes they have a dog height restriction in the trailer park.
Seems like we cannot win with anything we try to do, Jonathan is so distracted with all this stuff he is having trouble concentrating at work.
I think we need a holiday!
At least Riley is cute, teething and all....
Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. We really appreciate it!
