HUGE MISTAKE!

Today has totally sucked!! I made a colossal mistake and left my back window down in my SUV. Of course it rained forever last night with lightening and thunder. This morning when I went out to my car I saw my window down and immediately thought "Oh No - someone has tried to break into my car". Then I looked and saw no glass and I thought - no dummy you left your window down. So I start up my car because of course I am running late to work - as usual. When I start it up there are two lights on. One is the check engine light and the other is the VSC light. So at this point I am thinking....you have really done it now. And with my light bit of car knowledge thinking to myself how the heck could me leaving my window down and the car getting rained in have anything to do with my engine. So I call my husband who of course yells at me and says he is to mad to even talk to me because he told me to make sure my windows were up the night before. I get to work and look up the codes which all say "Take to Toyota Dealership". So on my lunch break I went and had the code read and it said "Tire Speed Sensor" I guess one of them is possibly bad. So they reset the codes and I am waiting to see if that comes back on. BUT so the big thing that happened is that the window that was left down is the window behind the driver and right below the drivers seat is the VOICE RECOGNITION AND NAVIGATION BOX and now my navigation does not work. I am very sad about this! The warranty is for 3 years or 36 thousand miles and I am out of both. My mileage reads 36,941. Can you believe that? So $1500 for a new navigation system or $200-400 for a rebuilt one. Guess I will be saving up my money for a rebuilt one.

On a better note - my giveaway is still going on until 7/23/09 and you can still enter below!

JPR as Katara

So my little one and I had quite a time last night. She wanted me to help her find a dress and fix her hair so that she would look like Katara, a water bender from Avatar. So after many wrong dresses and scarfs, and a couple of crying spells, I think we got it....at least what made her happy! We wrapped her up and straightened her hair and here she is. Cute as she can be!

First Folder - Tenth Photo

I was tagged by Shawn over at Seriously-Shawn. You have to choose the 1st folder and the 10th picture in that folder and tell a little story about that picture. So here is mine......

This was actually many years ago because my kids are much bigger now. This was about 3 years ago....they are now 10 and 6. We were on our yearly vacation to the beach. They were hanging out having homemade icecream made by there SuperDad....always a treat. Great ending to a long day on the beach. I so miss when my kids were younger. I love that my little girl hardly had any hair - just like me when I was a kid. She had the cutest little bald head forever.

So I am supposed to tag 5 other people to play along.....here is who I have tagged.

1. Kimberly over at Thewildhare

2. Janna at Happiness is a Journey

3. Kebi at Hanging by a Thread

4. Alex at Orbiting the Giant Hairball

5. Hiking in Stilettos

Here is a gorgeous eye catching necklace. This necklace was created with a white freshwater coin pearl, a flashy labradorite briolette, a pale green prasiolite pear briolette, and a fine silver hammered teardrop made by me. These have all been beautifully wire wrapped with sterling silver wire. I have added light gray Swarovski crystals as accents at the front and at the clasp. This necklace measures 18 inches and has a sterling silver hook clasp and a sterling silver rolo chain. This can be worn casual or for dressing up.

Here is a gorgeous Golden Yellow Agate Druzy necklace. This sterling silver necklace measures 18 inches long and has a sterling silver hook clasp with tiny white moonstone rondelles for accent. This is a very large stone with beautiful crystals. Druzy (can also be spelled drusy): When ground water carrying dissolved silica is forced into a porous area of the rock, rapid cooling often occurs, causing the formation of tiny crystals on the surfaces or in cavities of the rock. The clear crystals often form on top of previously deposited minerals. This is called a druzy.
