Is your dad worried about travel for any reason? Or about money? Those would be my guesses.
He travels internationally, so the process of travel isn't an issue for him. As far as I know money isn't an issue either. For Kelly's wedding they sent the new couple cash - basically what they would have spent on travel. But really, who knows.
Thanks for the kind words. I'm just so exhausted. I'm over my foot hurting. I'm over school - though I have a bunch of assignments that I need to power through. I love the puppies, but I'm over the manic energy.
Em has a car now. It's a 2007 Honda Fit with 211,000 miles so it is the same age as my car but has fewer miles. I need to replace the brake pads and I'm going to update the head unit for her so she'll have bluetooth, USB, in-dash Nav, and a reverse camera. She wants to help me with all of that since she likes working on cars with me, which is awesome.
Aw, parent-child working on cars is sweet!
...
Wait, what? The toddler has a car now?
Timelies all!
I'm sorry Suzi.
We are home, waiting for pizza delivery.
Two of my male co-workers have become roommates. They have very nearly opposite shifts, so it's fun to listen to them discussing housekeeping during their overlapping hours. They're discussing curtain rods at the moment and things to look out for regarding the dog.
First car!
I'm sorry, Suzi. Too much.
One fun difference with the British Antiques Roadshow is you get to see glorious 16th Century religious articles that are in the possession of retired priests. Old here is a lot more significant.
I'm sorry, Suzi.
I hope Em enjoys the car, Gud! I have a 2008 Honda Fit. When I had it in for an oil change last weekend, the guy at the shop said I could expect it to keep running for another 10 years. They're resilient little cars.
I do like the British Antique Roadshow. Seeing the lovely locations they film in is also a plus.
