"If it isn't broken, don't fix it" - doesn't fit here, you said no mechanical problems.
"If it rains it pours" - maybe there wasn't just one living thing, but many of them - like an ants' "highway" crossing the alley she was supposed to drive on?

Adrian, I recently purchased a "70s" electrolux vacuum. I went to a dealer to get some bags for it and got to talking. He was an old timer and offered to take a look at it and maybe tune it up. Nothing was wrong with it so I told him "I don't fix what aint broke" lol

Hmmm... okay, I got the whole picture right in my head...
You and hubby were telling her to be careful, not text and drive, obey all traffic signs, etc., then she put the car in reverse and began to back out of the driveway, when...
the Easter Bunny showed up smack in the middle of the driveway, holding an early spring Easter Basket full of candy and rocks! (it could happen)

If, you can't beat em, join em?? But I'm having a hard time joining that in with her expression. She was talking with her friends and they showed up just as she was leaving

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it must be a duck. I think I'm reaching on this one

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then it must be a duck. I think I'm reaching on this one gr gr CONGRATULATIONS you solved the problem. A few weeks ago 4 ducks show up in our back yard, they were probably attracted to the brook. The day of Leah's solo drive, they showed up in our front yard next to the car. I think they were cheering her on but she would not move until they were far away from the car. I had to shoo them into the neighbors yard. Once that was done, she was off and driving and hasn't stopped since. ;D Everyone, thanks for all the laughs you gave me and my daughter. This was so much fun! gr, please pm your addy to me. Lori
