Well dh called me around 3 and said the mechanic called and nothing is wrong with his brakes. then 2 or 3 people told me the same thing happened to them and something was wrong. But they couldn't remember what. One of them said it was a "hole in a thingie or something." Yeah that really helps me. GREAT!
So overall I mostly feel crazy though - LOL.
They said they will check it again in the morning - when the car is not warmed up. We'll see - we decided he needed an oil change so we could pay them for their time I guess.
Frankly I rather be crazy than have a repair bill or brake problems.
In other news just got this in my e-mail:
"As part of the Feed the Pig financial literacy effort, we are looking to find the best savings tip that young CPAs can offer to those in their age group. Give us your best savings solution. It can focus on ways to save, how to spend less than you earn, or how to get on the right fiscal track. Whatever you believe can help Americans on the road to financial literacy. The "Top Tips" that we receive will be judged and winning responses will be featured in a press release sent to national media. The names of those who submitted winning responses will be published on the AICPA's Young CPA Network's site.
Hmmmmm, I have LOTS of great advice to save money. But the BEST? will have to ponder...
I think the best advice I can offer is to not live up to your means/save raises. I will have to come up with a submission. Like the most money I ever saved was when I graduated college and lived like I was still a starving student though I got paid 3 times as much.
My problem is everything I can think of sounds so obvious. Well, if they pick me and feature me or anything I will definitely give a shout out to this website!
Call me Crazy - and need help

I have been thinking today that the best simple piece of advice that has REALLY served us well was knowing price is usually negotiable. (If not always - hehe). I thought maybe coupling that with saving the difference whenever you negotiate price down. Now there is a tip.
I was thinking along the lines of eating in more too.
Hmmmm.
