Excited about....NEW TIRES???

These types of things never excited me before.
Now...with husband in a different state, I have found
myself spouting out terms like "bushings" and "shock tower"
not to mention the odd serenity I have felt while
reading "The Book Thief" amidst the cacophony of hydraulic lifts,
air wrenches, and the clinking and clanking of mechanic's tools.
Even the oil-scented atmosphere was welcoming.
New bushings and washers - check.
Safety and Emmissions - check.
Registration renewal - check.
New tires - check.
I am evolving.

I took these pictures this morning to remind myself how I decorated the house this year so that I can do it the same way next year.
Then I thought, "It will not be this way next year. It will be different."
A different home awaits.
Why, then, did I take these pictures?
Perhaps for a memory.
Perhaps for a record.
