There it is folks. Did you learn something about me? Probably not! However, I do have another addition to this long winded blog. I have to tell you about my experience on Saturday (my favorite day of the week if you were paying attention). These days I like to take a little drive to Florence, AZ on Saturdays to visit my friend Pepe. When I left my house that morning my car seemed a little sluggish getting started. I thought it was strange, but in my excitement to leave didn't worry too much about it. Then after my little visit in Florence (30 minutes from my house and in the middle of nowhere) I tried starting my car and it wouldn't start!!! What the heck?! Of course I just started crying cause I don't know anything about cars and I didn't know who could help me. So I called my dear sweet brother Curtis, who quickly piled the kids in the minivan and came to my rescue. What a saint! I think it's like a 40 minute drive from his house. To make a long story short, my battery was toast and by no small miracle we happened to run into an auto shop and I was able to get a new battery. My car has run like a champ since then. So here's to you big brother: Thanks for saving me!!!

And now, about my Sunday strange crying incident (I can't believe I am going to share this). I was getting ready for bed and was staring at myself in the mirror in my bathroom. For some reason I was intrigued with my face and everything I saw in the mirror. I started thinking that I looked cute and was smiling at myself and thinking how happy I was that my appearance is changing and I am looking better. Then all of the sudden my eyes filled with tears and my chin started quivering. I was crying! And I had no idea why! I think it's because I realized just how pathetic my life is and it made me sad. And the fact that I am a woman with strange monthly emotions doesn't help either. Ok, enough said.

{Enjoy}
