Mom came down to Longview last weekend to visit with grandma for the weekend. While she was here her car broke down and needed some warranty repairs. The car wasn't going to be ready until Thursday so mom headed back home on Monday evening with Ingrid and Karen taking her to Tacoma where she picked up dad's car and drove it home ( Read more... )

The plan for today was to head to a restaurant called Salvador Molly's and try out their Habanero Fritter challenge. Chris and I have been talking about this since he saw it on the show "Man vs Food" on the Food Network. Naturally Tyler came along to try the challenge too ( Read more... )

I was up at 8:45 this morning but not moving very fast. I half wanted to sleep in and half wanted to get going. I got online first to check on some things. Then I headed into the shower to get ready for the day. I was supposed to go with my mom to WM again but when I got out of the shower I found that she had gone without me.

It worked too, I came home it felt so good to just go back to bed. Unfortunately I know how good it feels now and I just want to go back to sleep more ( Read more... )

So I called Les Schwab first thing this morning and it almost seemed like I might have to wait a few days because they wanted to look the car over first and then schedule the work. As it turned out that wasn't necessary and they would be able to fix it before the end of the day (around 4pm ( Read more... )

I had originally decided not to go to the barbecue but my daughter discussed it with me of her own choosing and told me to go. She decided that we could do her Birthday on Sunday instead. I was reluctant but she insisted many times over before I finally relented. So I contacted Tom to let him know that we would be there in case he thought they ( Read more... )

Two things have been fixed this week that were a long time coming.

Car DoorFirst off last Friday my door panel finally told me that it wasn't going to stay on the door much longer. I had been told years ago that the clips were expensive and because of that I dealt with the problem until I absolutely needed to ( Read more... )
