Mom my ride

My good friend, former college roommate and fellow blogger Karen put this out on her site in honor of our new purchase I will pick up this afternoon.

Shel & Nik - WARNING. Go to the restroom before viewing this.



It is classic. I can honestly say there have been some days when my old van just may have looked like the "redecorated" van.

I had all good intentions of naming my former new vehicle (aka pretty, shiny Yukon) "My Precious", however I just not feeling that name for the new Town & Country.

Any name suggestions are appreciated, however I will not entertain either Sméagol or Gollum, just can't do that to the new car it hasn't done anything to me to deserve that other than take the place of "My Precious".

Thanks Karen for making my day!

PERFECT! (And you don't need a mini-van to say "Mom Car" - Melted crayons, anyone? Fruit Loops?)

But the big question is...They still make Zima? Where can I get it? I smell a Piggly Wiggly weekend if we can get our hands on some!

Susan-- So glad you liked that one! Someone told me about it a month or so ago, and it seemed just perfect for the occasion. Happy New Mini-Van Day!

Six weeks

I am sidelined for at least six weeks. No tennis - no good. My bad wheel turned into immobile wheel today thanks to an air cast. Not the most attractive accessory. I had been trying to continue playing with the plantar fasciitis guess I figured it was going to be around for awhile so might as well deal with it. This plan actually worked out for the best because when I was playing on Thursday there was this loud pop in the bottom of my foot. Suddenly my heel felt better, so I thought, "Maybe it released all of the bad heel juju into the rest of my foot." Well, it was something like that. Evidently I tore a ligament in my foot which the doctor told me is really the best thing that could have happened. The reason why is it cured the plantar fasciitis. Plus the recovery time for the ligament thing is about six weeks versus potentially months or years with the other. So all in all I guess it was a good thing to tear a ligament. I am bummed because I can't do any exercise for t...

Have you met my friend Jane?

I am a complete Jane Austen junkie, in fact I think that I need to maybe seek help. Shelly tells me I need help and we all know Shel tells it like it is, so it must be true. "Hello, my name is Susan and I love Jane. Jane Austen." I read "Pride and Prejudice", annually. Yes, every year I spend a weekend with Elizabeth Bennett and Fitzwilliam Darcy. Now that I think about it I may need to skip my little tradition this year because I have so many other never read books piled up and there is a due date looming from the library. The reason I share this closeted truth with you my friends is because there is a TV event starting this weekend on PBS. It is basically the 10 weeks of Jane, every Sunday night PBS will air a adaptation of Jane Austen's novels. Here is the schedule. So, if you have never had the opportunity to get to know Jane, maybe it is time. Think about it, there is no new TV, it's cold out and you can learn new some new sayings for Monday. Nothing ...
