The Good, The Bad, and The Groovy

The Good:

Husband got the day off because Son had a doctor's appointment today, and as I am sans auto, we needed a ride. Son is healthy! Son is gaining weight! We should be drinking 2% milk!

We got groceries after seeing the doc, which was not all that bad, as Husband kept the younglings entertained (at one point we were dancing to a Ringo Starr song) so I could find what we needed.

I got all the laundry done yesterday!

La Tahoe is done; we'll pick it up later this afternoon.

The Bad:

I was sans auto today, did you not catch that? I hate not having my mode of transportation; I couldn't escape up to Curves last night! And before you ask, no I cannot just drive Husband's car. It is a standard...and I can't do the clutch and the gas pedal...yes, I'm challenged that way.

The bright side to this is that our mechanic said he could work on La Tahoe ASAP, and that what happened to the brake rotor is fairly common. Usually, he said, both rotors break, not just one. So we were really lucky. And he couldn't believe we drove all the way from Columbus like that. (Two hours and 45 minutes, if you care to know.)

The Groovy:

We got Chinese for lunch! And I snuck a package of Healthy Choice fudge bars into the cart. If you have not tried these, you should. They are so yummy! And low calorie!!
