Am I the only person who has a hard time getting through on the phone to a doctor's office any more? They all just send you to the voicemail system, and if you're lucky, you get a call back.
That's one of the many reasons I fired my psychiatrist. I'm fine with leaving a message, but I expect a call back within 24 hours, faster if I need something urgently. A doctor's office should not be held to less rigorous standards of customer care than I am.
Oh, the problem was that I haven't done anything to fix her old car yet. I was kinda holding off until we cleared some expenses and hoping to maybe fix it myself. She took her new car tonight at least. Maybe I can sneak a look at the mass airflow sensor tonight.Overall the car is running pretty well, but it is a little jerky when accelerating some of the time. Unfortunately it behaved perfectly when the mechanic took a look at it.
She has TWO. CARS. Am I right? Two that are hers, not that she shares with you. So she can choose to drive the new one. She can choose from one of her TWO. CARS.
Someone is the asshole in this situation, Gud, and it's NOT YOU.
I implore you to get counseling, either with your wife or just you. You desperately need an objective party to sort out this relationship.

This. So much this. While couple's counseling would be ideal, you being able to see a counselor on your own so you can get some impartial feedback is just as important.
Gud, your wife is being unreasonable. That's not fair to you, and that's not fair to the kids.
I'm with Steph like a MILLION TIMES
She is using this as a weapon to beat you down.
Drive the old car to a dealership and sell it. Done.
If it's so important to her that the old car be fixed, let her take care of it. She's clearly able to drive a car, so she can drive the Sentra to a mechanic. Why does it have to be you?
Timelies all!
What the Buffistas said, Gud.
Meanwhile, my folks have left(very early this morning). Love them, but somehow it's more exhausting parenting when they're around(and Gary isn't) than parenting by myself.
I actually think separate counseling for you, Gud, is even more important than going together. You've got to hear someone you trust say how effed up this all is. (I mean, it could just be us, but maybe better someone you pay.)
