Smiley I would imagine so! I hate to drive but I prefer driving the van to driving the car. I think it's because I am sitting up higher in the van and can see a little better/farther.

The car is higher than most cars nowadays but not as high as an SUV or van. I drove the neighbor's SUV yesterday and felt like I was about ten stories off the ground because it's high compared to our car! We had an Escort wagon for a while and that was LOW compared to the big car, the previous one and this one. Me, I like six feet of hood in front of me, and our current car has SEVEN. It's over 19 feet long and just the right size for this widdle chick... When we first got it I thought I'd have to sit on a pillow to see over the dash because I'm so darn short, but luckily, the seats are high enough so I can see over things perfectly fine. Cheesy

I love driving, and have since I first got my license when I was sixteen and a half. It relaxes me, unless I'm behind some dimwit going half the limit on a summer's day or someone who is speeding up and slowing down like crazy... Roll Eyes

On that note, I have a nine year old who wants me to play some games offline for him. I'm going to oblige for a bit, then give him his computer time while I get things ready for morning before CSI comes on at 8. I have to watch it early tonight because I'm on bedtime duty again. It's the last night for it for me until Saturday night, THANK THE GODS. Hubby is actually OFF tomorrow for a change.............

Have a great night! Cheesy

*sigh* SunLord threw up on Moonie's bed.

First load of laundry -- the bedclothes -- is about done. Second load to follow.....

Second load in the dryer and I've just taken more aspirin. The ankles are better but now my shins are complaining....

Skywise isn't home yet but I'm heading out. If the Post Office hasn't pulled a fast one on us, we'll be having a very busy morning and I'll need my sleep!

Everyone sleep well and be safe! Smiley Smiley

Morning. I may have gotten 3 hours sleep total last night. It's going to be a long day even if I get a nap in.......

We gotta get going. The school called and the little guy isn't feeling great so we're going to pick him up on our way to get the car. Poor little guy. See y'all later.

Back. Son is NOT impressed to be missing school, notably MATH, but that's his problem. It's better that than him not feeling great while doing his studies. He'll be caught up in no time, he's a smart kid. LOL

I'm going to get some lunch and finish getting caught up now.

Afternoon.
We've been home for a while but I haven't had time to post before now. Or get caught up which I'll do now.

Things have finally settled down around here. Skywise won't be home until 3:30 or thereabouts and the kids and cats have finally settled down. I took a nap so I "should" make it to bedtime.

I'm seriously thinking of learning a new crafting skill. Gonna need to set up workspace for it though. The machine is reportedly large and heavy -- I'll be checking on that -- and it's not something I'm going to be wanting to have to pull out before I can use it.

Working on the pizzas right now. It's a good thing I can almost make them in my sleep 'cause I'm really sleepy right now and Skywise won't be home until 3:30. Smiley I probably won't hit the sheets until 4 although I'll probably sign off from here before then. When I say goodnight, I like to be reasonably coherent.

The pizzas will be ready in 10 minutes and I'm heading out. I hit my fatigue wall about an hour ago and I'm staying awake by sheer force of will which is just about expended!

Everyone sleep well and be safe. Smiley Smiley

Morning. The little guy is home today so it looks like I don't have to worry about losing what little mind I have left. We slept in too and I'm glad I got the extra sleep, I needed it.

Now to get caught up...........

I just got an idea for a possible antagonist of a type for the new idea, or a future idea. Heh. Cheesy

I'm expecting a few "potshots" in "retaliation" for me posting a couple of jealousy and ignorance quotes. Peashooters.

I'm also wondering how crazy "someone" is going now that they've seen - repeatedly - that they have NO CLUE what my series is about... They are probably TICKED OFF that someone other than them has been privy to the storyline and character information for the last five or so years, and won't know what my books are about unless they actually BUY them and read them.

Karma once again bites someone in the behind... I love it.  Smiley

Afternoon. We got in about half an hour ago but Skywise needed to check some downloads he did last night so I'm just now getting on. No tea yet but it's time to catch up.

I see a #1 Hottie fix in my future, probably after the guys crash... I can't stay up too late though, Son has a doctor's appointment first thing in the morning and I'll be taking him.

Regular monthly thing, although we will mention about the trouble he had yesterday to be safe.

Yeah, it probably won't hurt to mention it since you'll be there already.

Exactly, and Hubby said the same thing. I'll probably get offline when Hubby gets home from work, which should be in about an hour or so. It's nice having him work a day shift for a change instead of a closing one..........

Hubby is home so I'm going to head out now. I'm wonky eyed and the little guy likes to watch Hubby play games on the computer... Which he is screaming for right now.

Thankfully, Son's feeling better. He's been zooming around most of the afternoon and NOT limping. I'm still talking to Doc about it tomorrow to be safe though. Cheesy

Have a great night! Cheesy
