This & That




My car is bossy....Is yours?

The other morning in the 20 minute round trip getting Lo to her car pool and me back home...
it told me:

I need to change my oil.

I need gas.

I need to buckle my passenger. (Cocoa)


I was waiting for it to remind me to take my vitamins, get at least 30 minutes of cardio and start eating more greens.


Geeze...it is like having my MOM with me everywhere I go.

**UPDATE**

Today, it is very cold here. cold for us Florida Flamingos. My outside temp gage was flashing between 34 degrees and ICE.

Ice?

Oh, lordy, how does the car know I need to pick up a bag of ICE today????
Now, that is a SMART car.

Thanks to the smart, talented and funny Jenn at Juggling Life, who bestowed upon me this wonderful award.


Thanks Jenn!!!



I will be passing this on to some sweeties as well....


Grandma J....for she continually makes me laugh w/ her blog as well as her comments here.


And to my wonderful friend Dawn , who is one of the sweetest people ever....I sometimes feel I am not worthy of her niceness. Then I get over it and remember she loves me for me. :)


Rebeckah at Life with Kaishon. She is a real sweetie pie of a girl...Plus, I have her completely fooled that I am nice.

Go forth and share people!!!

    i agree on the bossy car. and then when you don't do what they say, they just go on and on and on.....
    and then there's an awful arguement. not good.

  2. i can't believe you are giving me an award! thanks :) love ya... and you are so worthy of my niceness. and i will keep that opinion... as long as i don't get a fork in the eye... or get shanked!

    ummm... yeah... it is wayyyy cold here. way cold. did someone pick up florida and move it up north?

    as for the bossy car... not sure. mine just seems to keep changing the rules for how the windshield wipers work. or it is just me... but i don't think so.

  3. We came on holiday to Florida and there was a freeze warning.
    Note- us Brits come to Florida for sun. The sunshine state- not fair at all.
    My car is bossy too. It howls repeatedly if the front seat belts aren't on. I thought it was me that was irritated by it all....

  4. WOW - this deep freeze is really stretching FAR south is you guys are down in the 30's. We are down to 13 and I have a pipe that is partially frozen - EEK! A trickle of water is getting through and I have the space heater set up in the bathroom HOPING it will thaw and not burst. (this is a "problem pipe" in our house.....)

    I just REALLY don't like it when it's this cold.

  5. Love your new look here! You have one very smart car!
    Sorry to hear about the cold there...I am sure my daughter will be calling me to vent about it later. She will go on and on and then say something like "Oh just forget it, you aren't going to feel sorry for me are you?" I do feel bad cause I know she hates the cold but it's hard to feel "that" bad when it's been -14 every damn day with a -30 wind chill. LOL
    It actually got to about 10 degree here yesterday and get this, we are getting a heat wave today...might reach 30 degree. After many days of below 0, I am so ready for this! I might not need a coat!

  7. Yes, my car talks to me alot. The worst thing is that if it is time for a maintenance check it won't stop reminding me until I do something about it.

  8. Maybe your car's grandpa was Kit from Knight Rider :-D

    So cold here, our thermometers all froze.

    Sigh.

  10. I like the new look of your blog. It's obvious that your car is related to our car.

  11. Suz---the new look of your blog is WONDERFUL... I love it!!! Our car can get pretty darn bossy also. She beeps and she blinks.... Wonder what I ever did before all of this BEEPING in our lives. (That's another blog!! ha)

    BUT--if you really want to hear BOSSY, just buy a GPS.. We even find ourselves arguing with ours.. AND I can't even count the number of times I've said, "AW-shut up" to that GPS... ha

    Have a great day --and be sure and get gas and get your oiled changed!!!! Fun Fun!!!

    Hugs,
    Betsy

  19. Girl.... LOOK at you... I just noticed you have 56 followers - WOW - you're like the David Koresh of the blogging world! (LOL... just KIDDING...)

    Seriously! For someone who "wasn't sure about this whole blogging thing", you're really popular! I bet you'll be a guest on the Ellen show soon! :)

  20. Thank you for the reward...I mean award (darn it). Seriously I'm thrilled for real, because you have so many really sweet readers, and to pick me is overwhelming.
    I love the new look. I'm thinking about doing a redo in the near, or not near future.

    My car shouts orders too....and it won't turn my music back up until I respond to it's demands. Who's the boss any way?

  23. I think roads are bossy! Stop here, no turn on red, yield here, 35 mph over there...what's up with that! I'm in too much of a hurry! I need a space ship car where I can zip around and not worry about all these bossy laws (which by the way, I do obey, but boy is it a pain).

    I just love your new look and all the titles "Harmless Stalkers". You've got such a creative side girlfriend!
