GLADYS HAS ARRIVED!!!!

SHE IS HERE!!!!!  Finally!!! And jeez Louise is she ever red!  Hokey Dinah!!!  I put a pic of her on face book but I will put a pic below for my non fb peeps.  The gorgeous lady in the pic is not me by the way.  Just clearing that little detail up.  I wouldn't want all you people that haven't met me thinking that I am lying here in this blog...going on how fat I am and old and ugly...then look like her!

She, definitely, is NOT a Blister.  She is Lisa, the finance gal at the dealership.  She phoned me to let me know what to bring in with me when I pick it up in the morning.  She was all giddy about the colour and the fact that her shoes were the same colour!  So she took a pic and sent it to me.  So funny!

Saturday morning we go camping in Bamfield out at Pachena Bay, our old back yard for many years. I am NOT taking Gladdy.  And there is only one reason.  Wrangler.  He is the worst hairball.  You should see poor Tank.  There is more inches deep hair over every inch of the inside of that jeep than there is on that dog.  I ordered leather seats but apparently that somehow got past the salesman...who actually wasn't very good.

When Lisa called me, she was running over the numbers.  She casually mentioned that my trade in was 21,000.00.  NO IT WASN'T!!!  I distinctly remember he said 22,500.00.  But the dumb salesman put down 21,000.  When I signed I never even checked because it was ten seconds after the head guy said 22,500.

So Lisa put him on and there was a bit of an argument, I told a sad lie or two and in the end got my 22,500!  Plus the jeep ended up being 500 bucks cheaper than they had quoted me.  So I used the money and bought paint protection.  Gotta keep that awesome red awesome!

But back to the camping trip.  I am not comfortable leaving Gladys sitting here all by herself with no one keeping an eye on her.  Not in this godforsaken town.  So I called up Pat and asked if I could park her in front of his place til Wednesday when we get back.  He lives right across from a drug dealer so nothing happens right there in that tiny area.  He was quite happy to Gladdy sit.

Tomorrow night Jen (Bill's stepdaughter) and family will be here!!!!  I can't wait to see her.  Jen and I get along like a house on fire!  I'm anxious to see the kids and her new squeeze (new to me).  Also April and Myles will be here!  They are going to sleep in their truck.  It will be loaded and they don't trust the alley rats...don't really blame them.  They need a big air horn and when one of those losers sticks his face into the back, they can whip out the air horn and let fly!  Hahahaha!!!!  Scare the shit out of them!

My new buffet arrived!  I paid for Wayfair to come in and build it too.  The rest of the dining room stuff is coming on the twentieth.  I absolutely love it.  But..it left me with a bit of a dilemma.  What to do with the old one.  I don't want to get rid of it.  I actually like it and wouldn't you know, the new one doesn't fit even one thing from the old one.

So I moved the old one into the kitchen and put all the stuff back in.  I kind of like it!  I put the cookbooks on top to make it look homey.    Then thats it I think.  No more purchases except for my teeth.  Those stupid things cost more than the whole dining room suite.  And they are taking way longer to get than the furniture.  I have to keep crazy gluing my current ones back together which is really annoying.

So I shall be posting on Wed. the fifteenth.  I hope I will figure out how to put pics from the new camera onto here.  I shall post.  I will post a pic of my big giant salmon I am going to catch!!!  TTYL
