Sad & Happy



First, the sad news. My cute purple car is officially gone. This is my last moment with it (on Wednesday). You can see in the background the house I've been staying in for the past two months. I haven't had many of you over, and I'm regretful about that! Thankfully, the staff team has frequented my house, which was a huge blessing to me (and hopefully the team).


And the happy news -snow!! I knew there was snow in the forecast last night, but I didn't think I would actually see it. It took me awhile to notice, but then I looked out the window in delight. I love the first snow. Unfortunately, my 'snow socks' were packed, so I couldn't wear them :(.


(Kat, this announcement is particularly for you. Sorry I forgot to mention the snow on the message I left. And sorry I couldn't chat today - looking forward to next week!)

I've also realized that now that I only have one car, I think I'll be more appreciative of the reliable Malibu. Even if I need to scrape the snow off of it!

Carole, I'm sure that you were *delighted* to see the snow...and what a bummer the snow socks couldn't be pulled out for appropriate footwear! Thanks for posting the pics -- I'm glad to see that the rumored snow was for real...and I'm glad you get to enjoy it, not me. ;-)

Carole,
I am kind of in the same situation as you where your new car isn't quite as cool as your old car, but I am humbled to remember what cars are for, transportation. haha I miss my honda civic too. I got rid of it on Saturday. We can cry together. haha
