Also forgot to post about the drama in my car the other day. Fire in the Hole!!!! It was freezing cold and I was leaving the neighborhood to hang with the girls. I turned the seat warmer on as usual. There was a burning type smell that I thought was someone's fireplace..then the smell kept getting stronger and started to not smell right at all! I was getting paranoid that the engine might be on fire or something so I turned the car around in the neighborhood and started back home. The smell got so strong I decided to stop the car and get out to check it out. Then I looked down and saw smoke coming up from the side of my seat that I was sitting on!! I jumped out of the car so fast I wasn't even sure if I had put it in park...luckily I had. I quickly reached in and turned the seat heater off. I was shaking like a leaf! The seat had practically caught on fire underneath and was burning a hole in the seat and then to my leg. Sure...my leg and booty were feeling warm, but hey they were supposed to the heater was on! I called Mike in panic and then drove home. The burning had stopped but the car smelled like burnt leather and electrical stuff! We called the dealer and they are obviously going to replace the seat. Mike found that there was some type of recall for that from before we owned the car...the dealer is covering everything! I didn't get burned thank goodness...although a small burn on my leg or something like emotional trauma might of gotten us alot of money!! hee hee. Just kidding. I'm just glad that I stopped to really check it out or I might have really gotten burned...pretty scary!! My leg did tingle for a little bit, kinda like when you touch the hot iron but that's it.
That's all I have for now....my note for the day......follow your instincts!! Toodles.
