They Finally Called

My insurance guy finally got to me today, only three business days after I was told he would. If I’m really, really lucky, I’ll have enough money left for a value menu lunch after they pay off what I still owe on my car. And I still have to find a “new” one. Looks like I’m seriously car shopping now!

Yardwork on Saturday

We finally realized that it is never going to cool off again, and the humidity is never going to drop below 75%, so we might as well bite the bullet and just do it. So far today I’ve weeded two planters and watered all the flower beds. After a short break in front of the fan, we’ll be trimming some bushes that are taking over the world and then trying to find and mark where all the poison ivy is growing this year so it can be killed later. I think that’ll probably be plenty enough for one day.

Online Car Shopping

Have you ever done this? I hadn’t, but I’ve spent a fair portion of today trying to, since the insurance company decided it wasn’t worth fixing my car and totaled it. So…how do you know the car you get is the one they picture? I refuse to either take the bus clear across town or beg a ride from someone only to find out the car I wanted to see doesn’t actually exist, and all they have for me is an elderly Gremlin or Fiesta. It’s an adventure.

Missing My Meeting

At least I had the forethought to send an email that I wouldn’t be attending this one, since I have no car and a cab is astronomically expensive from where I live. Still, this is a pretty big one and I wish I was there. Hopefully someone will take good minutes for me and let me know what happened. In the mean time, I’m looking at the still-dirty half of my living room walls and debating if it’s worth it. It’s already pretty darn hot and sticky and it’s pretty early in the morning.
