still amazed

So my car has been breaking for the past week and a half. It's a major issue since we own a car and a pickup truck...so if the car breaks we can't fit into the truck. Anyway, so I didn't get a chance until this past Friday to bring it up to the mechanic, but just to get an idea of what it was and how much it was going to cost. I was waiting on a call from work to go in, so I couldn't stay long. Basically, I have had my serpentine belt replaced twice over the course of 2 months. The second time also required a replacement of the turn-y thing-y that makes the belt...well...turn. We had that replaced on a Monday, 2 weeks ago. By Friday it started making this loud shaking noise. We open the hood to realize that the part that was just put on is shaking and vibrating. But, like I said it took me a week to get it to the mechanic. He wasn't sure what was going on and told me to bring it back in today after class. So that's what we had planned on. But, Sunday on the way to church the car starts "misfiring". So much so that I need to hold the clutch in extra long to keep the car from stalling. And while I'm idleing I have to hold the brake and rev the engine at the same time so the car doesn't turn off. Fast forward to today. I'm on my way to class (on I-24) getting off at Fessler's Lane, and the car stalls...going 65! I find out that I tested out of a class and start to leave TNU, and head over to Keystone. It's almost 2, so that means Happy Hour at Sonic. Yeah, the car stalled 3 times trying to back out of my parking space...and about another 15 times on the way to the mechanic. We never make it to Sonic :(. Anyway, we really didn't have money to fix the car (but definitely didn't tell anyone that), but like I said we needed it. The mechanic fixes it, and when I ask him what I owe him (typically would be in the $150-$200 [if not more] range for what all he had to do), he tells me "not to worry about it". I've been praying for a week that God would help me figure out a way to get the car fixed. I've been stressed beyond all reason and God had someone say "don't worry about it". We've been going to Joe since I was preggo with Aidan and he knows all of us well. God takes care of us time and time again, so why do I always try to figure it out myself? Anyway, my long "little" story for today. And if anyone needs a car fixed, The Mechanic's Shop in Madison is a great place!
