I friend told me that the alignment thing is crap. They just try to bully you into doing it and actually it isn't a law or some such thing like that. Whatever let me know when the economy gets better, I'll emerge too!Betsy, short for Elizabeth, formally known as Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03689307061005439040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3720739272677963576.post-24715175672074756872008-05-29T12:54:00.000-04:002008-05-29T12:54:00.000-04:00Get out from underneath that stupid bed, you've go...Get out from underneath that stupid bed, you've got paining to do. Your kitchen is awesome, I blew up the pictures and you've got crazy good shit to use for accent pieces. <BR/><BR/>At first I thought the mixer was a fishbowl/fake mixer and I wanted me one of those! Closer scrutiny, just a regular mixer. Simmer down, Carrie, simmer down. <BR/><BR/>I like my clutter and I like my stuff all around me. Not that I am all perfect (close though) but I like looking at all the little reminders of my life along the way. If the story that matches the item isn't that good, I just make up a new story and carve it into stone and then use that stone as a paperweight. <BR/><BR/>Get the heck out of your funk, I need you too much for you to be mopin' about the economy and emissions. <BR/><BR/>So, grab a paintbrush, paint a little porn mustache on P and show me what that would like like ...Candid Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421804696146084068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3720739272677963576.post-57355434524112532222008-05-29T10:25:00.000-04:002008-05-29T10:25:00.000-04:00The harder you try...

We would miss you for that long. Yes, I am usually an optimist, but not when it comes to the economy. <BR/>We have to have our cars inspected every year. It blows, especially when you go past the month you are due and a cop notices your overdue sticker....<BR/>How's the scratchin?<BR/><BR/>Good conclusion to D. Catch last night.

Gas prices have become ridiculous, and I have a feeling the economy (and many industries) will be taking a major hit because of it.Loshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16794387734217000502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3720739272677963576.post-20912653858432927922008-05-28T17:31:00.000-04:002008-05-28T17:31:00.000-04:00Washington State is a lot like PA, I think. Here ...Washington State is a lot like PA, I think. Here in Oregon we have to pay around $75 every two years for DEQ and licensing. But we have no sales tax and they take a good chunk out of our paychecks! Somehow or other I think each State gets hammered in their own way. I know what you mean about finances and something always coming up. I've been married almost 34 years and it's always been robbing Peter to pay Paul! Every time we get a little 'something' saved up, it's either a car repair or some other dead horse that crops up. Last October it was my washer going out. Christmas Day, my refrigerator died. And just a couple weeks ago my dryer went kaput. So there went around $1500-$1800 out the window. But now all three of my main appliances are brand new so I'm hoping I won't be replacing them any time soon!

We used to do them here in SC--I remember vividly have to go to one with my dad when I was a kid--but they don't anymore.<BR/><BR/>They've been advertising those fancy Vespas around here. They're supposed to get amazing gas mileage. Check them out if you can.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06254892316444101203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3720739272677963576.post-47131969176230227682008-05-28T17:03:00.000-04:002008-05-28T17:03:00.000-04:00We have to have our car inspected out here in Ca t...We have to have our car inspected out here in Ca too and mine didn't pass the smog test, but the cool thing was that the state gave me 500 to halp with emissions related work, I thought that was super cool, but my car is still in the shop and gas prices are still raising!Insane Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13772208953959596713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3720739272677963576.post-68462514355012095332008-05-28T15:22:00.000-04:002008-05-28T15:22:00.000-04:00Amazing how you have all these different rates and...Amazing how you have all these different rates and rules state to state!<BR/><BR/>I like your economic solution (with blankie)BS5 Bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00736680428036053669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3720739272677963576.post-40353049541716277152008-05-28T14:54:00.000-04:002008-05-28T14:54:00.000-04:00We used to have to do that in Minnesota but it pro...We used to have to do that in Minnesota but it provided so much corruption it was repealed.Brianinmplshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933103811088365332noreply@blogger.com
