After saying, "Tomorrow I'll go to such-and-such [dealer] to see an XYZ," THREE times earlier in the week and then deciding against it, I finally visited a dealer yesterday. I've done all I can online, knowing that once I set foot in a car showroom there will be a certain amount of pressure to buy something. Now. So I had narrowed things down to a couple makes and models. Checkbook in hand, I was prepared to make a purchase yesterday. But I was told that the car that I'd come to purchase had just been sold. Although that's quite possible--nice car and really good price--I notice that it's still on the dealer's website. Hum...

I was, of course, directed to another car, one actually on the lot, a beautiful used BMW. Also a very good price. I test-drove it. Gorgeous car, but not what I'm looking for. The apartment building where I live has off-street parking--very needed--but it is very tight. We've all scratched our cars--or worse--due to the tight quarters. I was hoping my old car would last until I have a better parking situation. The BMW is slightly larger than my old Volvo. I need smaller, not larger. No BMW. 


It sounds like the dealer could be guilty of "bait and switch."

But it was a good garage sale....I got a very nicely framed Renoir art print.  An antique pitcher in great condition, with no chips at all, a great oak chair - like an old courthouse or library chair, it's been repaired, but a good repair job, and a three cat plaque that is really cute....I spent $25.  ( I should admit most of it was given to me by a friend who was part of the garage sale...but still....)

Back from the family wedding reception.  Peace and charity prevailed!      8)


Well, for the most part.  The snubs were covert rather than overt.


Which, I guess, is something.       :P


The snubs were towards you??

Paul had an opening for his mural on Wednesday night. I'm so proud of him.  It's an amazing mural.

Here's a link to the story from the paper today  http://siouxcityjournal.com/news/local/state-and-regional/sioux-city-business-now-has-view-of-landscape/article_69e0865a-2c98-57ca-9454-e8d17d9a5e45.html

Thanks!  He's feeling like he's free again after working on that for so long.  He's off to NYC to see friends next week

I should have eaten something today, but I just didn't have the energy to get up and make it.

I won't be around much this weekend.  Today we will be with friends and tomorrow is just a romantic day for us as it is our 45th anniversary.

Thank you.  The Monaco Hotel upgraded our room, gave us champagne, and left rose petals on  our bed :)
A Very Happy Anniversary to Jane and Keith!! :D

I am sitting here like so much fish trying to relax.  I'll write the notes in about a half hour.  I think maybe I'll take a hot shower, since I have nice clean sheets on the bed.

DR Jennifer, I hope your niece feels good she did her best, whatever happens.

She finished in 1st place in the 50 free. It is her first 1st place of the season. They even announced her name over the loud speaker. It was thrilling.

She finished in 2nd place in the 50 back. She finished at the same time as her teammate (well 50.28 to 50.44).

Congrats to your niece, Jennifer!

And now, I must take the day.  I have to shower, get dressed, get gas for my car, get food for my tummy and sunscreen for my skin...not necessarily in that order.  The wedding that I'm going to is an outdoor wedding, and even though it doesn't start until 5:30, it's already a very sunny day.  The weather report says "partly cloudy," but there can still be a lot of sun shining through. 

Have a good day, all!

I am now home from the wedding and a lovely wedding it was.  I did not get a sunburn, nor do I think I even got a little tanned, so the newly bought sunscreen was a success.  The view over the water was spectacular, the bride was beautiful and the groom was gorgeous. ;)

There was some pretty good food and wonderful cake and a lot different kinds of candy that everyone could take in little bags.  It'll last me for several days.

A good time was had by all.  Christy, the bride, told me that her ring was his great-grandmother's and is 110 years old!  It was beautiful, and she's got a great story to go with it.
