We got our car back and it's looking good. The invoice for the hail damage ended up being $20,000.

Oh, my goodness!!  😲

$20,000!!!!!

Pardon my curiosity, but what kind of car is this, that $20,000 didn't total it?

Very good question!

There will be more CDs.

Yay! I don’t have enough.

There is no such thing as too many CDs! ;D

Worried about the poor dog next door I reminded them of how loud and scary the sound is.  They have taken the dog away for the morning :)

Good!

I should have reminded another neighbor.  She wasn't home and her husband is no long able to walk the dog :(

Would replacing the car have been more expensive than fixing it, especially since only the body was damaged?

Fingers crossed it is only one unit though I fear it will be more since they are half an hour earlier than expected.

Well, as BK said in his notes... Happy November.  Yesterday was chaotic at school for a while as we did the parade, and the rest of the morning was good.  I dressed as the Phantom of Opera.  It was quite the hit as all of the 6th, 7th and 8th grade classes have seen the movie - as I have showed it to them.  It's always a hit and they really get into it.  Later on this year, I'll show the 6th grade Love Never Dies - that's always a head scratcher to them as the dates don't line up correctly LOL.   Anyway, last night I went out Trick-Or-Treating with my nephew Henry and that's always fun.  Seeing as though it's November, there are many things happening.  I'm at White Christmas this week - but only really called twice, and next week I'm there as well and we just got the notice we should be off-book next week.  I'm sorta off book, but there are 2 major speeches - one in Act One and one in Act Two that I need to work on.  They are almost there.

Oh my, this font certainly appears smaller on my screen!

That's because I am posting this in my new EYE BUY DIRECT glasses.

I haven't had prescription glasses on in well over two years, so I've got to re-accustom myself to how the world acts through them. That takes a little while, especially with a strong progressive lens prescription. But I think these will work fine for the couple of months I'll be using them. I actually regret having waited so long to get them.

The physical fit was perfect right off the bat, and when did that ever happen in an optician's office? Never in my experience. Plus, I ordered them Friday and they're here Wednesday afternoon. I had originally figured I'd try Warby Parker which seems to be all the rage, and then DR Jrand73 suggested this place. I thank you, sir!

I'm glad the new glasses fit so well and hope you adjust to the new script.

Good thinking. They have to start with someone, right?

Yesterday in my brief stop at the supermarket for half a dozen essentials, I caught sight of a display of breads on sale and made an impulse buy of something I used to keep around on occasion, but haven't in at least a couple of decades:  a package of cinnamon raisin bread.

Now doesn't that sound exciting? I know how to live on the edge, don't I? They don't call me Thrill Seeker for nothing.

Anyway, I love that kind of thing but hadn't bothered indulging in years. Just had a slice, toasted, with butter, and YUM.

Cinnamon raisin bread also makes good french toast.

I always liked cinnamon raisin bread, but the ones I’ve purchased in the last five years or so haven’t been as good as I recall. Perhaps it’t the brand.
