A few months back, my dad got in a wreck in his vehicle and tore off the front bumper. It still ran fine, but it was really ugly. The insurance finally came through a few weeks ago and towed it away, leaving my family with only one vehicle. Peter came to the rescue! He revived an '89 VW Scirocco for me drive around. While he was working on it, I had to take the bus to work and then he would pick me up when I was done, as busses do not run my the time I get off work.
We finally got me driving the car yesterday, so I will have no more snowy cold days waiting barefoot like this!
I am going to kind of miss all the hilarious reactions I get from other passengers when they see my bare feet. Maybe I'll ride the bus just for kicks sometime.
Oh, and I made Peter dinner to thank him for fixing up the car for me. The chicken ended up being a little dry, but otherwise it was absolutely delish!
Many thanks to everyone who has been posting comments of support on the Edmonton Journal article! It really means a lot to me!
