fun day today...
i found out yesterday my battery (which was new at the end of summer) had died...
its under warentee so if it does it again ill be taking it in to get a new one...
so today i had to use the portable jump to get her started...
that was fun...you see my car is parked surrouned by about 4 ft of snow/ice, in order to jump my car i had to clamber through that 4 ft of ice/snow mountain to open the bonnet and hook her up.
she started though *yay*
then the real fun started...oh yeah...2 inches of ice under my entire car...
i have a chrysler sebring...its front wheel drive...but that means nothing when all 4 wheels as sat on 2 foot of shiney ice.
it took a combination of me and my dad, a shovel 2 bucket fulls of sand and a bucket full of ice and about an hour to finally free her form her icy prison...
oh and just to add to the fun my dad says "your tires seem low..."
so we checked those with the compressor...
supposed to be 30psi all around...actually psi was 10...LOL yup definatly needed air...
my spare had NO recording tire pressure...yeah that would have sucked in an emergency...my spare being flat.
left my car running for a good 1/2 hour...
turned her off, turned her back on and the battery was definatly struggling...she started after a second or two, but she didnt want to.
still have to go back out there and try to get her going again to see how the battery is liking it now.
otherwise, not a very exciting day.
got the bird cages clean, vacumed and trash done and even made jack my macaw a new little play gym
i cant wait untill spring, im javing such cabin fever.
