Yeah for kindness!

I felt the same way about my mom. Then my children grew up and suddenly I understood my mother so much better. Strange how that works.

there are some really good folks out there in the world!! Glad you were able to get some help and hopefully it is fixed for good. I recently took my car to a hole in the wall place – the kind where the sitting area is an old bench seat from a pickup. The owner was so nice – and he fixed me up for $42 versus the over $450 the dealer wanted!! I am never again buying an extended warranty as I prefer to avoid the dealers as much as possible!!!

Isn’t it just wonderful when someone is so helpful, puts in the effort and then tells you that there is no charge? It doesn’t happen often but when it does it certainly spreads the good karma. Hooray for Don’s AutoBody …if I lived anywhere vaguely near I’d give them a visit next time I needed their services.

Hope you had a great Christmas day. 🙂

Sounds like my car shop in San Ramon, a bunch of Dads who bitch at me if I go too long before services. And they think it’s amusing when my kids tear up their waiting room.

I used to own a Honda Prelude that had a leaky sunroof. When I accelerated cold rain water would pour down my back, gasp!

When you speak of strife, especially since you are with child and when you talk of your mom, I want to spoon you. Not in a sexual way. I just want to smooth your hair, and hold you and cover you with blankies. And then when you are asleep I will sit in your doorway with my laptop until somebody comes near and then I will kick them.

that was great news about the car; I hope the “fix” worked (and that we don’t get as much rain as we got recently). That autobody store sounds like a great one!

I hope you and yours had a very nice Christmas!

praying for you/baby, I am going on a blog break with our move next move, but you will still be in my prayers

I hope the new year is a very good one for you!

Glad to hear things are progressing well enough with the pregnancy that all you feel compelled to mention about it is your hemorrhoids. See?! That’s a good thing!haha Fiber One Cereal was my best friend when I was pregnant 🙂

There goes your good karma, working in your favor again! Good for you on the car issue. That can’t be underestimated. As for your hormones, I wish you luck—So glad you didn’t unload on your mom!!

Feliz Navidad, my friend 🙂

Wow. That’s very very nice of Don’t Auto Body! Don’t feel guilty about your interactions with your mom. (Well, I do feel guilty about how I treat my mom too but I have to tell you this…) Think about it: Will you hold a grudge against your children? Never, right? 🙂 But of course, their being so nice only makes you feel guiltier… LOL.

Merry Christmas my dear!

Merry Christmas, Mami! You’re in the homestretch now. You’re little one will be here before we know it.

Hope you are enjoying the time spent with your family and that 2011 is full of wonderful things for all of you.

Bah humbug to greed in bed? I don’t know… sometimes greed in bed is the way to go.

As for the h-roids… I’d suggest regifting back to the pregnancy if I could figure out a way to make that work.

I like to pick up what I can of different languages (without actually taking a class = time + money) So I read “Noche Buena” which with my very limited translation ability sounds like it would be Beautiful/Good Night.

Here’s a small clip I put together for Christmas

Very nice to hear of a place of business that spends time on finding the cause of the problem and does not charge. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

What a great mechanic! My car suddenly sounds like a truck and that sounds really expensive so I have been putting it off…
I’m not even pregnant and I am crying over everything..someone told me it is because my book is finished and it feels like I just gave birth..hmmm..not sure but emotionally maybe close.
I wish you the merriest of Holidays and a Healthy and Prosperous New Year!
