Golly jeepers, gawh this is annoying, my car decided to break down! Gwah, let me start from the beginning. After my cold day of pulling tree branches, and fallen trees. I got in my car and drove home. After a mile or so from home, I only live about three miles from work. I felt something thump the bottom of my car, it felt like I ran over something. It was small, like a stick or something I ran over before, which was no big deal. Well then, after a moment I felt it again. This time whenever I turned the wheel to turn from one side of the lane to the other, well it was getting worse that closer I got home. When I turned into my drive, I heard a loud gratting noise.
I got out of the car, laid on the ground and looked under it. I assumed maybe, a stick or something was lodged underneath. I couldn't see anything and I looked everywhere, so I went inside, and told my parents. They came to look, and we got in my car to drive it a mile down the road to check the mail. We kept feeling it, when we went to turn around. It gratted again, and then stopped moving competely. It wouldn't change gears, and wouldn't move at the time. My mother was standing outside, watching the car to see if she could see what was wrong, She saw some ball barrings fall out, we pushed the car into a drive way.
I waited by the car, while they went to go get our van and car dolley, they came back and we loaded it up, well it took us forever, since the wence on the dolley wasn't attactched. We tried pushing the thing onto it, that didn't work, so we got a hand wence. Dad used that while mom and I pushed, well lets just say I had the bulk. I pushed pretty hard, and moved the car up a lot, I was braced hard, but I was standing on gravel. My feet slipped out from under me, and I fell hard. The car lurched and came back, luckily my dad had the chain attached to it, at the last second. Plus, my mom was still holding, other wise it would of ran over me, since I fell flat down on the ground.
That would of sucked, but after that we got it home. It's stressful that all this happened, I just hope it doesn't cost to much. I'm saving money to move to Tennessee, I don't need this taking it all! Oh well, at least it happened herem and not down there. Well, I'm feeling tired so I'm going to submit this now, I might update later.
