Daily Grin October 1
Well I picked up the new(ish) car today. My insurance guy called the dealership and took care of all the paperwork and brought the plates right down to the car. All of this with his wife 9 months pregnant and 1 centimeter dialated!! I showed up at the dealership this afternoon and they had made a repair to the windshield to fill a stone chip and to take care of some front end sqeak I had noticed on the test drive. The plates were already on the car and I got a pleasant surprise. The car has command start already installed!! There's also an anti-theft device/immobilizer which may lower my insurance rate.
Hubby hadn't seen the car even though we'd discussed it and he left the decision to me. He's pretty happy with my choice!! It's a good little car, though a little larger than our last car.
We can hardly wait to get back in it tomorrow and go shopping again!!
It's been a really busy week. I'm beat and I'm planning on sleeping well tonite. Hope that goes for you too.

Home Remedies
1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don't panic. Simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat and presto! The blockage will be almost instantly removed.
2. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.
3. Avoid arguments with the Mrs. about lifting the toilet seat by simply using the sink.
4. High blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed for awhile, thus reducing the pressure in your veins.
5. A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep when you hit the snooze button.
6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, then you will be afraid to cough.
7. Have a bad tooth ache? Hit your thumb with a hammer, then you will forget about the tooth ache..
8. Remember: Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
AND..... Sometimes we just need to remember what The Rules of Life really are: You need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.
