| | I am really having trouble with this xanga thing! First I'm here...then I'm not...then I am...then I'm not! What's up with that? I must be fickle to the max! I do know this...I think about my xanga friends, but taking the time to actually get on...well, YOU know that just isn't happening!
I have been so burned out using the computer lately. We have been researching cars for about a month, and refrigerators to boot. Hours and hours and HOURS of research takes it's toll. However, I am pleased to announce we are the proud parents of a two year old Toyota, Camry. And all my research didn't really help us...except to know that the Camry is a great car (which we already knew). We ended up buying my husband's sister's car. Plus they bought our old car, so we didn't have to sell it ourselves! SO glad that's over! I NEED all the brain cells that went to car shopping for other more important things! 
Thought the fridge thing was over too, but we are going to have Best Buy come and pick up the model we bought. First there was a ding in it, and they brought the silly thing in anyway, without telling me it was there (yes, THEY knew). After it was settled in place he showed me the ding, and said I could call the store and get the fridge for a reduced price, or they could come back with another one. I should have told him right then, take it back. But the bargain shopper in me kicked in, and it kind of depended on how much they would take off the one in my kitchen. It ended up we didn't like the one in my kitchen anyway! The shelves are not sturdy enough to hold heavy things without bending in the middle. Back to square one...and now in a time crunch. They pick up the dinged one next Thursday...um....we better find the right one before then!
Yep, I think about xanga....especially when I'm eating out with my hubby, and a fly is being especially annoying. So what does this granny do? She swats at it of course. Not a problem...except I do it with the hand that is holding a fork...with yummy steak on it....and OFF it flies! It was pretty funny actually...and sad. Losing a great piece of steak for a FLY. (They are my arch enemies. )
And I wondered about my xanga friends last week when I was getting ready to go get my hair cut. I wondered if any other woman actually fixes her hair BEFORE she goes to the Salon. I am more concerned that my hair dresser see my hair looking GOOD than just about any other person on the planet! I've always been that way.....it doesn't make sense, does it?
And I thought about xanga when I was this close *holds up fingers to indicate the tiniest amount* to buying a limited edition, glacier blue, Pacific Touring, tricked out, PT Cruiser. I know....the PT is either a love it or hate type of car. But they sure are fun to drive! Add a sun roof, leather seats, turbo engine, and a spoiler, and well...GO GRANNY GO!!! And as you know that didn't happen. We got the sensible car that was a rare deal. My NEXT car might have to be one that's a little more fun...
So I shall end with the latest news. We head off to Texas this afternoon to visit family down there. Needing some grandbaby hugs! And daughter hugs....and well, son-in-law hugs, best girlfriend hugs, brother hugs....you get the picture! We will be taking the Camry out for it's first road trip with us. I am sure it will not let us down. 
Fickle or not, my intentions are always good. But as they always say...you can't eat good intentions! Actually, I just made that up, but it sounded pretty good....not to mention that it didn't even FIT with what I was saying! I do love you all, and I shall not make any more promises that I can not keep. But I can promise this....I shall return!
Eventually........
Love and Hugs!
