Car's in

I've been listening to those brakes shriek for WAY TOO LONG. Today I have nowhere I need to be but work, for the first time in forever. Amazing how one's schedule clears up when one quits going to physical therapy! So TA-DAAA!, I took the car in.

It's in for brakes and... you guessed it, an alternator. :-) (My car eats alternators roughly once every year and a half. Every mechanic I see agrees that that's bad and then won't try to figure out why it's happening. I think they missed their calling as doctors.)

It's sixteen this year and healthier than I am. I'm supposed to get it back this evening.

It did help somewhat, but couldn't finish the job. The doctor decided that after PT calmed down some things and strengthened a few connections, the real problem might be more easily visible, and that's when she sent me in for the MRI. Based on that I might get more/different PT, surgery, or who knows what.
