Day Tripping

Hannah and I ended up at the ocean the other day. (She took the picture of me and I took the picture of her. She took the picture of our friend the crab).

I bought my daughter a Toyota 4Runner for her 16th B-Day. She went four-wheeling with it today -- her and a few friends. (I found out about when I looked in iphoto).

Patience is a Couch

I am not a shopper. I don't have the patience for it. When I want/need something, I have an ideal about what that is, and then I spend no more than a minute, hour, day (depending on what it is) finding something close enough and be done with it. Time to move on to the next activity. Right now I want/need a new couch. However, this time I am going to dedicate a year to this search, time to change my evil shopping ways. (Molly, 2009 is, in part, the year of the couch). I am going to find the right couch to meet my tastes, needs, and budget. It's going to be stylish, comfortable, practical -- and a steal, that will make it even more attractive.

The couch pictured above is stylish, but neither looks comfortable nor is a steal (it's a bajillion dollars) . . . but, it is the start of the process.

I am also shopping for a new mountain bike . . . I will post photos once I begin taking bikes out on demos. Until then, no bike will be bought until ridden and compared with others. The journey begins.
