Lifes Like That

We just got finished with Mother’s day and now Father’s day is in sight. My husband is a mechanic by trade and his interests lie in the car and mechanics field. But because he is a mechanic, I don’t buy him tools or anything like that for special occasions because he seems to have two of everything. Lately he has been talking about investing in Chrysler 300 accessories. Some of these accessories would make a great gift if he would tell me what he want before he rushes out to buy them. Hopefully I can get some answers out of him and surprise him this Father’s day with stuff that he likes, doesn’t already own and will use. Wish me luck.

I am an avid collector of many things. I collect coins, collector spoons, pigs, cows and jewelry. Yesterday I had the opportunity to add to my jewelry collection. I was at a jewelry store and seen that they had new pocket watches on sale. So I bought two. One for each on my sons when I finally do decide to pass down my collections. Most of my jewelry collection consists of stuff for my daughter so for me to be able to grab a couple of watches for the boys made me feel good. At least when they start getting the items from me, there will be a little bit of things for everyone.

My two younger fight a lot!!  They honestly do love one another and are one another’s best friends, but sometimes they just can’t help themselves.  Earlier in a post I mentioned that starting today they will be on a four day weekend and I wasn’t really looking forward to this because of the fighting.  But because I couldn’t stop the weekend from coming, I just had to brace myself for the upcoming fights.

But….I am extremely happy to report that so far so good.  There has been absolutely no fighting at all in my house today.  Now this probably sounds a little weird to you all, but you have to understand that on days off they usually have their first two big fights before 10 o’clock on the morning.  This is why I am so happy about this turn of events.  I know they can’t keep up the good behaviour forever, but the more minutes that tick by without the fighting the happier I am becoming.  Fingers crossed.  Maybe this weekend won’t be so bad after all.

You would think that after having my licence for six years and living in this area for the past nine, that I would know my way around the area by now wouldn’t you? But nope. The other day I had to go to someplace where I had never been before and wouldn’t you know it, I took a wrong turn and got lost. Thankfully I was only a little bit out of my way so I didn’t get seriously lost, but I hate the feeling that I get when I do get lost. Which is a lot. I get lost so much, that my husband is looking at buying me a vehicle tracking device just so I stay on course. It’s pretty bad when a person needs one of these trackers just to get around their home town. But honestly, I am that bad.
