Counting blessings

Dec 19, 2006 16:37

As we near winter solstice, it was a privilege to be up and out early, in the pinky-grey morning, even if it was only to take my car into the VW garage to have the heating fixed. Due to a curious problem with - I guess - the thermostat, I've had the choice of no heating at all or driving in a sauna. So at 8am I was at the local VW dealership ( Read more... )

*happy dance*

Yay! New journal layout! :)

Your description of your lovely day has made me all warm and fuzzy inside. I'm a little puddle of lovey goo over here. My students thank you, because now I'm going to grade exams, and I tend to be a bit more lenient when I'm warm and fuzzy than when I'm feeling in a not-so-happy mood. :)

Glad to be of service, Professor Perspi.

From sunrise to sunset, all in one post! Lovely!

Oooh, does this mean you're a fellow VW driver? I've got a poor battered little '01 Golf.

Yes, I have a poor, battered even littler Polo. It's my third German car in a row. They say once you go German you never want anything else.

Are you feeling better? We've missed you.

I've had a mostly good experience with my VW, but I'm still pondering Toyotas again for the next one. Which is still years away, but I like to daydream about cars.

I am definitely on the mend, thank you! It's very good that I took yesterday off to rest and recuperate though. I hate being sick over Christmas and I think this one will be well on its way out by then.

Of course now work's crazy and I'm just starting to catch up with the fast-paced world of the internet: I've missed you guys too!
