Sounds like the best thing about your week was your weather! -Lu-

AARP so it didn't cost anything out of pocket. The guy that installed 
the shifter fixed it temporarily buy spot welding the locking nuts to 
the threaded cable end till I get a new cable. I had the guy install 
new belts in my Malibu and asked what I owed him, he said nothing as 
he was sorry I had the shifter problem in the other car. He even 
picked up and delivered both cars from my house. I had the starter 
replaced in the orange Hornet purely as a preventative maintaince 
thing. It started 2 times and was parked outside of the garage, when 
I went to start it to drive it home the starter drive would not 
engage and the starter just spun. I am going to replace the carb 
today and wonder if that is going to give me a problem too. I went to 
get my Malibu inspected and the boss of this other shop jerked me 
around and wanted me to leave the car for the whole day. I took it to 
another shop were I know the owner and he said bring it back in an 
hour and a half. When I did he found out he didn't have the saftey 
only stickers and tried to print one out of his machine for 20 min., 
he said can you come back in 2 days? All of a sudden the machine 
printed out my inspection sticker. It's been one of those weeks for 
me. I was so disgusted that I took a "ME" day yesterday and rested up 
and did nothing. I also had trouble with the new cell phone I got for 
my wife too. After my wife came home the day before yesterday from 
work she didn't lock the door and all of a sudden the door opens and 
the old man that lives below me walks in as he went up one flight of 
stairs to many and thought my apartment was his. How's that for a 
week?????? Today I will be back to the old grid again. It is only 
going to be 75 degree's and NO humidity. So how's that for the last 4 
day's?
