What are the Chances?

This is the beautiful Texas sunrise I saw this morning
while waiting for the tire place to open.


What are the chances of having two flat tires in 5 days?
In the SAME TIRE?!






Either I have really bad luck,
or someone's messing with me,
or the first flat tire wasn't fixed properly.

What's your guess?

Flat Tires, Costumes and NaBloPoMo

Happy November!

 I'm participating in NaBloPoMo,

so you'll be seeing (I mean, hearing from) me a LOT this month.

Every day in fact.

Also, here's my 10-year-old from last night.

A scary specter.

(I won't mention all the, ahem, drama 

that occurred for the hour leading up to this photo.)

My day started with a flat tire.

 But it ended well!

I absolutely love seeing friends and family's photos 

on Facebook, Twitter, Blogs and Instagram over Halloween.

Did you have a nice Halloween?

 

 

How a Prius led me to believe in World Peace

I drive a big ole ghetto SUV

And yesterday morning, during my commute to work in the heavy metroplex traffic...

a Prius driver let me enter traffic in front of her.

This, my dear friends, gives me hope for Peace Among Everyone.

Do you believe in the possibility of world peace?
Have you seen any random acts of kindness lately?

Backseat Battles

Annie loves to go for rides in the car.  

Whenever I run errands or have places to go, I try to take her along.

Everywhere we go, people give her doggy treats.

Starbucks, the bank, Walgreens, Chick-Fil-A.

And she loves to sit in the back and stick her head out the window into the wind.

However, whenever my younger son rides back there also, 

he doesn't always want the window down.  

We end up with the backseat battle over the window.  

It seems like there's always a battle over something.

Annie's pretty spoiled though.

The window's usually down.

It makes me happy to see her joy while the wind flaps her ears.

My Grandmother bought a car on Ebay

and she bought an exercise bike on Craig's List.

I'm so impressed.

Have you bought things off Ebay or Craig's List?
Have you sold anything there?
