And That’s….the Truth

For the past few days we have been in the middle of an extreme hot wave. And because we live in a mobile home our home is completely unbearable to live in. For the past couple of days my children have been holed up in my room with my fan watching blu ray videos. This is the only way that they can stay cool. We are all tired and cranky and life here just isn’t that much fun right now. Hopefully this heat wave ends soon and we can all get back to normal life.

Although I have my license and have had for six years now, I do not drive in town. I’m not comfortable driving in that area so I normally lose out on a lot of good buys. A friend of mine went shopping at a local thrift store. She was amazed at the name brand of baby clothes and kid’s clothes that she seen in the store and really couldn’t believe the prices. But since I don’t drive in town, I can’t get to that store. I think one of these days I will find someone to take me into this store and maybe I’ll be able to take advantage of all the deals they have as well.

Why does purchasing a vehicle have to be such a hassle? My husband is in the middle of buying one as you have already read, but the crap that he has to go through is unreal. It’s almost as painful as searching for a quick weight loss program. He finally has got all the paperwork together and has handed it all over to the dealership. So… now we have to wait. I honestly thought we would have it by today so I could take it to work tonight, but nope that isn’t going to happen. Keep your fingers crossed for me that we get it tomorrow. At least then we’ll have it for the weekend.

I am so excited! Last night my husband traded in his car for a new SUV. Even though it’s technically his vehicle and not mine, I’m still pretty excited. I can’t wait to drive it. For the past six years he has owned the same car and because of it’s size, I wasn’t able to drive it. But this little SUV is right up my alley. I’m hoping he brings it home tonight so I can take it to work tomorrow night. Can you tell that I’m excited???

Tomorrow is our annual town wide yard sale. Everywhere you go there will be lots and lots of great deals. I absolutely love this day and look forward to it each and every year. Most years all I search for is used books and craft supplies and magazines. If I walk by Toto toilets I really don’t give them much attention. My kids like going to this event as well as they normally get to purchase a toy of some kind. So first thing tomorrow morning we will be headed out to see what kind of deals we can come across.
