Three Cars and a Pair of Shoes

I definitely appreciate my car a little more now. On Saturday morning, my cousin called me up and asked if I could drive her mom's pickup truck to her so her husband could go to Home Depot and buy some sheet rock. I wasn't doing anything important that day so I said I would. I drove three different cars in a matter of 45 minutes and each was an interesting transition. I started in my car, which I'm used to and enjoy, drove to my aunt's house up the street and traded cars. I then drove up to the American Fork Home Depot and traded cars again. I left the truck and took my cousin's "mini-van" back to her house. Each drove differently and the brakes and gas pedals were touchy in some but not in others. It was quite the adventure.

Saturday night I also got to spend some time with my grandparents. They had come into town for a couple of days so my aunt invited everyone over for dinner. I only get to see my grandparents a few times a year and sometimes it's at the drop of a hat. You never know when you'll get a phone call from an aunt or cousin saying that gma and gpa just got into town and if you want to see them you better come over today. Love it!

Friday, I went to the dentist...nothing special to report there. The rest of Friday I worked on some special projects including shortening a couple of pairs of pants. Trust me, they don't come from the store that short unless you buy capris. While working on these projects, I realized I needed to pick up a few items to complete everything so while I was out and about, I decided to go look for some new school clothes. I didn't find any school clothes but I did find some new jeans that I will be shortening and a cool pair of shoes...I could wear those to school :)

do you have to shorten your shoes too?
