I am now in contract. Now I get to chew my nails to the quick until a closing date is set. ---

Congrats, **rosie**!! Do you have a new residence lined up? We just got back from True Value with 2 gallons of Candy Apple Red paint. Don’t freak out yet - it’s not like the bright pinkish red of candy apples - it’s actually more subdued and very similar to the other color we’d chosen. And, as I’ve said, if we hate it, paint is cheap. So my tomorrow is all planned. Meanwhile, it’s cold and we’re in for the night. \*\*FCD \*\*has to run his car thru the carwash tomorrow - it’s almost white with road crud. ugh. That’s all I’ve got. Gonna chill tonight because tomorrow’s gonna be busy. ---

RAH!!!** you forgot **OKAY, GO!** No idea on where my new place will be although I have been looking since the house went on the market last Spring. I have my eye on a few places, but I am taking the weekend off from worrying about stuff. ---

I surprised DH with meat xylophones for dinner. Well, perhaps osteophones, but the visual of someone perhaps playing jazz on a rack of barbecued ribs is more entertaining. ---

This day has been just one pain after another. You’d think if GM could create a system to tell you that you have a low tire it could tell you which tire. They all look the same and I didn’t have a gauge or any quarters. By the time I got home it was dark so first thing in the AM I have to check it out. I’m almost done work, then off to spend the night with the doggies. ---

The Buick lied to me about that; your vehicle may be lying to you. It eventually decided I didn’t believe it and gave up. ---

LOLOL I have a good trifle recipe using pistachio pudding, but really you can use any kind. I make pudding with whipping cream to stuff my cream puffs. I haven’t made either in a long time. ---

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > The Buick lied to me about that; your vehicle may be lying to you. It eventually decided I didn’t believe it and gave up. I never thought about my truck lying to me but my old Vibe used to lie all the time. The check engine light was always on, and three different shops couldn’t find a problem. One got the light to go out but a few miles later it was back on. ---
