Truck surrender

We have a great mechanic. Honest. Reasonably priced. My truck has over 255,000 miles on it. I am cheap. I am not frugal. Part of me is defined by the money I make and the money I spend and the money I save. Tell me the story about eternity and how it is going to be. Wake up dead man.

So he just called and asked about the brakes. Rears are good. Front pads need replacing. I took it to him to replace the oil pan gasket. Messy job. In my youth I would have done it myself. Now, aching bones and a 2 year old to take care of I can't seem to justify the time for the task. Plus, I am losing confidence in my abilities.

What is the measure of a man?
