Sunday

This is the first really relaxing Sunday morning I've experienced in a long time. Partly because I don't really have anything all that stressful to do today. Partly because its actually sunny out.

Today I'm driving out to Waukesha with my mom's neighbor (I still call her my neighbor. So if I ever refer to "my neighbor" it's probably her). She knows her way out to the DMV there, and we're gonna drive around the area so I can get a feel for it for my second driver's test. I'm thankful that she's taking me and not my mom, because while I love my mom with all my heart, I just can't drive with her. She's the world's worst passenger. The other day I had to pull over and ask her to stop flinching every two seconds and screaming at me for every little thing. She knows she's bad at the whole being a passenger thing. I told her that when she gets old she can just take the bus everywhere. I was kidding of course, but she laughed and it broke the silence. Anyways my mom's neighbor is really relaxed and makes me feel way more comfortable driving. If I'm driving all the way out there without taking the freeway, relaxation helps.

It also helps that my car is like a brand-new vehicle now. Yeah it was a ripoff, but I'm glad I had it fixed. It handles much better, and it didn't need a front end alignment after all. Just a new ball joint. The only thing I need to work on now is two new(er) tires, and mayyybe a new hood latch/trunk. Oh, and the metal covering of my gas tank. And I need to fix the heat. But it's driveable which is really all that counts.

So right now I'm enjoying a cup of coffee while The Boy reads a Game Informer in the livingroom. I'll finish cleaning out the gerbil tank and then vacuum up the living room with our new vacuum. Today should be a good day :)
