a peak into the new chapter of my life.

780 miles and it bites the dust

Well... I apologize for the laziness this week and the lack of posts. I'm sure you're all dying to know what is going on here in NC. ha. Not much. I mentioned that I had a new routine I was going to try out... NO GO.

I woke up Monday morning and made breakfast smoothies with my mom. I was then going to get ready and head over to work out with my sister in law. NEGATIVE. My car decided not to accelerate past oh I don't know, 5 or 10 mph. Couldn't really tell since the speedometer wasn't registering. So needless to say, I am without a car. We're pretty sure it's the transmission, woo hoo, but I have to wait to get it towed in a few days. The escort made it the 780 miles to get me here and now I think it's dunzo. The one good thing about no car... instead I get to drive my sister in law's mini cooper around town.

Which reminds me... I'm not sure if you know, but there is a mini cooper etiquette. I was driving it on Monday while running errands and as I was slowly approaching the end of a street, another mini cooper was turning onto the road. The driver gave me a nod and a salute of the hand before passing by. I'm pretty sure my head continued to follow him because I couldn't believe what just happened. My sister in law informed me that this was what people did who drove mini coopers... therefore I failed mini cooper etiquette 101. I'm glad I'm now aware.

Alright... I won't bore you too much longer. Not much happened this week except unpacking, working out with my sister in law, playing with the pets and our stray kitten we rescued, and getting my transfer all settled with Starbucks.

I have an idea of what I want to do next with my life. I'm quite excited about it... but before I spill the beans I'm going to look into the details and pray about it. What will happen next, we shall see...
