It's Raining, It's Pouring

So much for being in a drought. At least right now. We are getting rained on like crazy around here lately, which is great! I love seeing everything go green. It's so pretty! Utah's green doesn't last very long and it's not the same type of green.

Anyway, most of you know that Lish and I only have one car. This is our other mode of transportationexcept not as cool looking and ours is black. Lish drives this little baby around to and from school. Neither of us likes it when it rains and Lish has to drive the scooter to school. It always freaks me out and he doesn't like being wet all day. These past couple of days I have been very grateful to some friends who have lent Lish their car and who have given him rides. So thank you friends for keeping my husband safe and dry!

As for now, I just want to be sitting at home in my comfy pants and slippers reading and watching movies. Instead, I'm stuck at work, and obviously very busy.

Too Much Good

You know how when you're cruising through life, everything is going well, things are looking up, you know something's going to happen. You start thinking, "I believe it's almost time for something bad too happen to me. Yes, it's been a while." That's how I had been feeling a little bit. Then the event happend last night.

Our transmission is shot. It had been acting weird for a while, but I thought the weather (all of our cold fronts) was just messing with it. Then we took it down to Orlando on Saturday and on the way home it was acting up again. I knew after I drove it to work yesterday that we needed to get it looked at right away. Then when I barely made it to the end of our street after work, I knew something was terribly wrong. But, at least it didn't break down on the freeway. At least I made it almost all the way home. At least we were safe. Of course we're out of a car for the next couple of days and have another expense to pay.

On the bright side, I pulled my hair back into a ponytail today. I haven't been able to do that for a year!
