Day 181 of 2018

Fifteen hours. 

Mom's place is finally empty. 

This is just a fraction of the stuff we moved to various locations. 

It has been a very long month of June.

If only now I could sleep for a month. 

Day 180 of 2018

Our regular visitor is back.

Day 179 of 2018

This is the way to start the day.

Day 178 of 2018

 So, this happened today. 

Luckily we were right in front of a store 

and were able to pull into the parking lot.  

After calling AAA for roadside assistance, 

we went inside, grabbed some snacks 

and laid out our Sesame Street blanket on the sidewalk outside the store. 

We sat down to wait.  

We enjoyed our impromptu picnic, texted family about the flat, 

saw a rainbow, took a few pictures 

and watched the temporary spare get installed on our car.  

Soon we were on our way none the worse for wear.

"Mexico"

Day 176 of 2018

Three things:

1.  From a very early age I have been obsessed with flattening out 

the foil wrappers from gum or candy. 

2.  I like to have an occasional Dove chocolate (or two). 

3.  I think the little quotes inside said candies are kind of fun.

Summary: 

I have flattened out this foil wrapper from a dark chocolate Dove Square

 in a manner which is not up to my normal standards but I'm ok with that today.  

I believe the little quote inside deserves consideration.

Day 175 of 2018

No wonder this machine at the post office never seems to work.

I'm so glad they added the sign. 

Obviously, we weren't the only ones that had trouble with it.
