Cars

Cars are frustrating. You get a part put on, it works for a while, then it fails. You replace that part and you're back to square one. I took the door on the car apart once again because the window doesn't work. I think I've determined that the window is crooked in the window channel. Doesn't help when things don't line up enough to adjust it how you're supposed to! At least it's finally up all the way and not down a 1/4" like it has been since the last time I messed with it. So we are still without any windows that work on the car. Anyone want to buy it from me so I have money to purchase a different one? Didn't think so....

On a side note, my yard looks like crap. And this year I just really don't care. I need lots of dirt to level things off and I really don't have the desire to do the work this year. Can I just forget about yard work this year? I mean I have so much to do. I need enough dirt to fill a space 25'x54' and bring it up about 12". Technically it'd be more like a wedge, so near the house you wouldn't need dirt, but at the street you'd need the 12". That's still a lot of dirt. Then I'd need to plant something in that dirt. And water it. And weed it. See? That is a lot of work. I think I'll just be a lazy bum today instead.

The car on my window is the same, only it's the motor that burned out. Duct tape was the answer as it so often is, although it looks all kinds of ghetto.

A motor should be easy compared to the regulator..

I suppose, but just figuring out the motor was bad was a major PITA, and I never could figure it out.
