Has been a Monday indeed. Talked to the dental office and have an appointment tomorrow morning. But talking to the gal, she is baffled based on my x-rays and things it is deferred pain from my upper tooth that is mid-root canal. That gets finished on Thursday.
Meanwhile, I'm finally thinking of getting a new vehicle. As much as I've enjoyed the Mustang, having something better suited for the snow here, something with 4 doors would be really nice. But I have no idea where to start. I think I want new or barely used. I want something I can buy and hold onto for a long time. Front wheel or all wheel drive with 4 doors. After that I'm stuck. Not sure how to narrow it down further.
My mom was always horribly embarrassed about our front lawn. The people who'd owned the house before us had planted some kind of grass (pronounced zoy-ja, no idea how to spell it) that pretty much lasts forever with just about no care other than mowing it, but it turns brown in the winter and doesn't turn back to green again until the snow has been gone for a few months. She always hated it, because it looked like we had a lawn full of dead grass. She asked a bunch of landscapers about replacing it, and they all said that it was nearly impossible -- the roots grow so deep that, even if they tore it all out, it would probably just grow back. Part of "needs no maintenance" is "impossible to kill."
Suzi, maybe start with Consumer Reports and see what vehicles in that category are highly rated?

The nerves in your mouth are kind of all crammed in close together, and that could be what's going on. Still blows, though.
Boo, Monday!
Zoysia, Hil?
I sure did think that said "assassin" for a moment, and was pretty impressed that you have a neighborhood assassin....
Paging the Ankh-Morpork Assassins' Guild...
If the Assassins Guild says no clotheslines, I'm not going to argue.
Subarus answer all your needs, and last forever with proper maintenance. Go Team Subaru.
Also, my favorite recent story of grazing a cow on the Common: [link]
That's what I'm talking about.
Not literally that story is what I had in mind, but that sort of thing.
I have a new car! My email just popped up with the notice that the car insurance has been changed to include the Jeep!
I hope Hubby left the Taurus on there, just in case something weird happens on the way home, where it will be parked until we send it to its final destination.
After that I'm stuck. Not sure how to narrow it down further.
May I suggest perusing my DH's reviews? [link]
