Random stuff

I finally found a new car. We are under two months till Zoe gets her permit and both our cars were stick shifts. I hate car shopping. With a passion. We were thinking about Ford Fusions or Subaru wagons. I found what I hope is going to be a good car for us at the used car dealer in Bentleyville. It is a 2003 but only had 63,500 miles. My 2003 VW had 130,000. Hoepfully no more sliding backwards down hills in the winter (VWs suck as winter mobiles....)
The lasagna gardening experiment is working well. The corn is pretty high (sorry there is no scale. the stick marking the bed is a spindle for a porch so maybe 3' high). Most of the work on Alice was cleaning up what was knocked down yesterday. More px and more progress tomorrow.

Looks like everyone is doing good. We have been very busy lately. I'm excited I'm taking drivers training starting Monday. Hope everyone has a good 4th of July.

What the????? Zoe can not even get her permit here until her bday. Are you taking driver's ed thru the schools? Cause that is not an option around here.

Uh, oh, JoJo.....

The girls are going to Ohio tomorrow until next Fri. I have no plans for the weekend. Maybe some yardwork. Our fireworks are not till July 10th. The three little towns here try to rotate so they are not all on the same night.

Zoe should probably learn through private lessons as well. It gets you a discount (yeah, right) on your car insurance....luckily, my car insurance is $2.50 a month less with the subaru than with the VW! We gonna live it up!
