Looking at Car on Friday

I just talked to my older son, told him the situation and what I found online. We're going on Friday to look at it and hopefully bring it home. Won't know until that happens though. I've also been busy clearing out a couple movies on my DVR. Two left and an episode. So will do that tomorrow. Then I call Spectrum. I got another promo letter from them today. And an interesting picture for you. My plants. My poinsettia on the left and the lily on the right. I've never had a poinsettia last this long before, and to see it starting to leaf out again, especially when I neglected it most of the winter, is amazing. I'm even getting some colored leaves on it. So both Christmas and Easter represented in my plants. I can't grow anything outside, but it seems I can inside. Go figure. Well that was my day. I hope yours has been good. Now back to interacting. Thanks for reading.

I love that your poinsettia is coming back! I've never had good luck with them but I think they are so beautiful! Your faith is well represented in your plants there!

You are definitely better at keeping plants alive than I am!

Only the indoor ones. I didn't water the poinsettia over the winter, and now it's growing again, go figure. I thought I had best start watering it again.

Very lucky the Poinsettia is safe now. I am unable to protect my indoor plants in spite of best efforts. How is your health now? Is everything right?

I'm surprised by the poinsettia, but it's growing again and will even have the colored leaves on it. My health is the same. I'm on meds for it so it's being controlled.

They like it better indoors. My day has been good - even though it rained most of the day and is raining right now.

No rain yet today, so maybe this time the weatherman was wrong. I'm glad you had a good day.

Even my mum try to grow plants indoor. She says that it is much easier for her to look after them

Me. He's going with me because he understands cars and has worked on them most of his life.

Your plants are both doing well, good job! And I wish you luck when you go in the morning to look at the car.

It will be in the afternoon. I'm getting excited at the prospect of having a new car. My son is going with me and I have all the papers from the online site regarding a proper checklist on what to look for and ask. Having my son with me will also help as he wants to have them do a fuel filter change as it hasn't been done according to the service reports on Carfax. I really hope this is the car and it's still there when I get there to look at it. Otherwise, I'll still be looking.

Finding the right car can be stressful. It is always nice to have someone help in the decision.

Yes it is, and my son is the mechanic in the family.

It will be satisfying if you are able to grow a few plants inside.

Yes it will. I've been thinking about getting a couple more plants. The poinsettia is encouraging that I just might be successful at indoor planting.

What kind of car is it?

The one I'll be looking at, hopefully, is a Pontiac Grand Prix GT 2001, silver. It's never been in an accident, has low mileage, and is in great condition. The asking price is very good for the condition it's in. So I'm hoping it's still there when we get there and I go home with it.

Good luck with the car on Friday. Is it for you or for your son? I like your plants too. I would love to have some indoor plants but my cats love to eat the leaves so no plants inside the house. You have a good day yourself..

It's for me. I got the news yesterday that the part that's going on the car can no longer be fixed, so it's time for a new one. Thanks. I'm just surprised the poinsettia is still alive.
