Boy, how quickly I forget how many things a husband is handy for. Tired of parking my car outside and one muddy lawn away from the house, I decided to move J.’s truck out of the garage and – surprise – it was dead. Hm. Will call handy looking neighbor to help. Ugh, that’s so…so…NOT me. Then I remembered this big orange thing my father in-law bought us before J. left. The Black & Decker Electromate 400 (what I now call The Black & Decker Husband-To-Go) – inflates tires, charges batteries, and acts as a power outlet. Anyway, I took it out of the box, read the directions, held my breath as I turned the key (hoping nothing would explode), and to my surprise – it started right up!
But…I should have remembered to keep the truck running a while…

Hey I need one of those! My deployed husband’s truck is dead in the driveway! He told me to drive it around once in a while. I guess 3 months is too long of a “while”.
