She's doing somersaults and stomping around in the snow. Before we can leave we have to take down the ceiling light fixtures and wash them. Oh, well, it's worth it. I try to start the car. Common cold weather disease for cars.
Cars are just exactly like people in cold weather.
They want to stay inside, and if you make them stay outside they shiver and shake when they run and finally freeze to death if you let them set too long. You could limp along for a year in the south with the same part. Memories of cars that are difficult to start. Starter failures on the coldest days. More than once I jacked up a car on snow and ice and crawled underneath it to replace a starter, laying on the frozen ground, holding a thirty pound chunck of frozen steel in place with my bare hands, while I fight to align starter and shims and bolts in places you can't reach, cursing the sadistic idiot who designed anything this uncooperative, hoping the jack doesn't slip on the snow because I know the safety chock I put under the car may go sailing on the snow if the car falls on it.
