...and she's back for a brief update...

Oh, hello there, internets.  I do apologize for the impromptu little "bloggy-break" there... life has been happening at our house this week.  I've had a few days here where I literally can't get everything done... and THIS time it's not just me being lazy or inefficient!!  It's just all TOO MUCH on our little family schedule!!  However, I do recall from years past that Spring is just traditionally crazy.  Too many kids with too many sports and school commitments will just overwhelm anyone.  Easter was wonderful, but busy.  We've played a few T-ball games and a few softball games and practiced and had a few family birthdays (Happy Birthday to my nephew, John, and my niece, Claire.  Aunt Betsy loves you!)  My car has died YET AGAIN, and is in the shop.  I have to tell you, internets, my love affair with my ultra-cool car is pretty much over.  Right now I'd settle for a very UN-cool car, if it would just roll on down the road reliably.  Any suggestion, readers?  What do you drive, and do you love it or hate it?  Does it leave you stranded on the road?  I'm needing some guidance here... 

Happy Thursday, internets.  I've missed you.

I drive a fifteen year old Isuzu Oasis minivan. I love it, but it's not on the market. I've been happiest with my Hondas over the years, with Toyotas coming in a reasonably close second.

Good luck. Nothing to add a little stress to life like buying a new car.

I am a Chevy girl but I have to say that I absolutely love my Volkswagen. It has tons of go power, good gas mileage, and very reliable (its German built you know).

I think you need a new nickname for us followers... internets just doesn't seem endearing enough. It's so cold and unemotional. Show us some love and call us "respected readers" or "super special stalkers" or "loveable lookers."

Anyway, I just bought a toyota highlander and it's small but efficient. I like it, but I've only had it a month. I've never been stranded by a FORD but I may be the only one. I just saw you in a Jeep right? Is that the car that is giving you so much trouble?
