100,000 miles and more

For the last several months I’ve been watching my odometer in my 1999 Toyota Corolla, waiting for it to turn over 100,000 miles. So for the weeks before the “event” I checked as I started up the car and during the drives here and there. And then it happened! I was driving home from this class at the East Branch Library, and it had turned on me and I missed it!!

I just couldn’t believe I missed it.  It’s been a great car. I bought in brand new in 1999 and I’ve really enjoyed the ride. My mechanic said it should last for another 100,000. Yeah!

This goes in the What Was I Thinking category!

I ordered these irises from Schreiner’s way back in April before the drought, the month-long jury duty, and my decision to quit planting irises! They are huge and they even threw in a bonus. Now to get them in the ground!

Of course the cats are always doing crazy things here. This one I took the other day of Dusty laying on his loveseat in the sun that was coming in from the skylight.

And Puddin would rather be in her cubes.

Well, that’s all for now. Have a great weekend and be sure to come back Monday. I’ll have a giveaway. Yeah! Love giveaways. See you then.
