Well what also makes me think it's the alternator is that my dash flickers at idle so I'm going to replace the alternator check the connections and change the negative battery cable and see how that works so far my cars has been starting no problem again... Weird

everyone needs a dmm or dvom IMO. you could simply run vehicle at idle and use a volt meter to check available voltage at battery terminals. reading AC anything over .1 at battery terminals at idle indicates failed diode(s) in alternator.
