We're having a lot of rain today and it doesn't look like it's going to stop any time soon.

Why?
I fell asleep a little while ago, and for some reason, Willy did not want me taking a nap. He head butted me in the head, laid on my head, walked on my hair, walked back and forth and back and forth across my head until I gave in and got up. Why Willy? Why? It was just a short nap. It wasn't even dinner time.

Enjoying the new ride
I finally had a chance to do more than just drive to and from work in my new car, and I really like it!! Chris drove back from KB's birthday party today, so I just let the seat back and before I knew it, I was snoozing away. Verrrry comfy!
Still miss my Maxima, but glad I don't worry about having to get the transmission fixed.

More snow photos
Starting to accumlate on the lawnmower.
Front yard view

Looking toward the back yard.
Artsy
Snow photos
I'm not sure who was more startled, me or the squirrel, I was standing next to the garage door taking some photos and I realized a squirrel was running toward me. He saw me and turned. I managed to get a three shots of him running by - the other two were blurry and this one has a big snowflake right in front of him, but I thought it was a cool shot.
Standing at the corner of the garage door, looking across the front yard.
My new ride.
Decided to get a little artsy - this is standing inside my front door, shooting through the glass.
Different artsy view
It's snowing! It's snowing!
It's snowing, but it's not sticking - well, let me take that back, as I was typing that sentence, Chris told me to look outside. The snow had started falling faster and with bigger flakes. I got my camera and went outside to get a few shots. I'm going to post them in the next post.
I had gone to the grocery store earlier when it was only raining. I figured it must be getting bad because the store started getting busier and busier. When I got to the check out line, it was really cooming down. Not too long after that, it all but stopped, but the news is saying we can expect up to two inches. We don't get snow very often around here, I'm guessing the schools might be closed tomorrow.

New ride
A few months ago, I started having some trouble with the transmission in my car, so I parked it and started driving Chris's truck. I had been trying to decide to fix the car or buy a new one. I didn't want to make a hasty decision so I kept driving the truck.
I finally decided that I wanted to start looking at new cars. Had no idea what I would even want. The first car I ever bought was a 1980 Cutlass Calais. Then, I had a 1988 Toyota Camry, a Honda Accord, a Toyota Avalon, a Nissan Pathfinder, a Nissan Maxima... so I wasn't sure. I think the Avalon was my all time favorite, but the Maxima was a close 2nd.
I missed having an SUV... so, what to do?
Chris and I went out to eat last week, and on a whim stopped at the Nissan dealership. I sat in a Rogue and didn't like it at all, the top of Chris's head was brushing the top of the ceiling - way too small.
He said there's a Murano... I almost said no right away, because I have never really liked them. But, there's a new body style, and we sat in it, and took it for a brief test drive. My mind was starting to change some.
Well, we left and talked about it, and did some research, and then on Friday my friend Edna and I went out and had another test drive.
Yesterday Chris and I went back, and did an extended test drive. I was seriously considering walking away from the whole thing when I realized it doesn't have a heated steering wheel which I am used to in the Maxima. It's a feature I love. Long story short, we did the numbers, and then Chris and I walked around the lot and talked over all of the pros and cons. And, at the end of the day, we made the deal.
I ended up with a 2009 SL Nissan Murano. Loving it. All sorts of bells and whistles. Haven't had time to really let all of the stuff it will do soak in yet. I watched the video they gave me, and in a little while, I think I'm going to have to go run an errand or two, or maybe three... LOL
