This week I finally got my windshield fixed. Over 1.5 years ago a rock hit my windshield and cracked it. It was a 3" crack right along my windshield wiper. It didn't go all the way through the glass and it was hard to see under the wipers, so I didn't get it fixed. I let it just stay. It bothered me but not enough to get it fixed. Since it hasn't rained in the west in forever, I didn't worry about it leaking.
Then about 6 months ago it started to grow. Bit by bit it started to sneak across my windshield. By the time I took it in this week, it grown to about 9-12 inches across. I felt it was starting to get dangerous.
Now I have a sparkling new windshield. I am afraid to stick my Garmin GPS on it. The only drawback is that it smells like stinky adhesive. I know it will go away but in the meantime every time I close the windows I get lightheaded. Luckily the weather has been nice.
Now I need to clean the car to make that sparkly too. If only there weren't water restrictions...
Until tomorrow...
A small rock chipped my windshield when I was a teenager, and my dad told me to get it fixed right away. I didn't want to spend the time or money, so I ignored him until the crack grew. As a young girl, I was really scared I'd have a bad experience getting it replaced, but the shop was great about it.
