Feeling Bad - I'm letting someone work on my car

ugh...never done this before...

had a significant antifreeze leak. could not isolate it specifically. it was coming from the water pump area...

read thru stickies and my haynes manual...don't have time to do it myself due to work load and business trip... so

i took my baby to a garage (that specializes in nissans). they're putting a new water pump in for me. i feel like dufus - but i didn't have anyother choice.

WP ~ $100
5 Hrs of shop time @ $80/hr

Total = $500

did i get ?

ugh...feeling violated... i've always fixed my car...

sorry for the whine...
