We are three adults down to one car.
This is distracting, disturbing, frustrating, and just plaid driving me nuts.
Spousal Unit took the van to work this morning, thinking that he was saving me from gettin up and driving him in for work and letting me sleep a little. Yes, I did sleep in a little. But, I hear him shut the front door and start the car and pull away and I am then wide awake.
So... I go downstairs, putz a little, turn on the water for coffee, put in a load of laundry, rinse a dish the boy put in the sink last night and put it in the dishwasher.
I sorted some recycleables and YUP I have nothing to do for the rest of the day.
Oh, I can make a list of all the things I need to do. That have nothing to do with being at home. The house is clean, the laundry is mostly done, the garden weeded. I don't even need "Calgon to take me away." I need a life.
I miss my van. I don't always need to go out, but the option is afforded me if I so choose. I go bonkers when I don't have wheels.
I love living in Germany. Germany is one of the Greenest countries in the world.
But... a little, tiny, eensie, teensie, almost un-noticeable oil leak should not flunk a Mercedes that leads to a 6-7 day down-time for a fix.

Go Germany for being so green but sorry you're stuck at home. Being without car is a drag! Good luck getting it back on the road and finding stuff to do to keep yourself occupied.
You could have called an "old" friend
