Thanks to the Koreans, I'll be making vegetables!

I have yet another story to tell.
I'm hoping this will enhance my story telling talents and will one day launch me into the spotlight as a socialite.......either that or the spotlight at a the local library.

We have a little old lady next door who is truly a goer. We will call her Bernice cause that is her name.
She is something to be marveled by for many reasons, I wont get into those reasons.
Bernice lives by herself and has a huge garden. Part of this garden shares a property line with my yard and the other larger part is in her back yard. She works on this garden year round and sometimes gives us corn. She is the cutest old lady with her little sun hat working and perfecting her garden of vegetables. She is the type of person you would like to be like when you get older...if you can stand the thought of getting older; something I'm sadly coping with daily.

I have a little 6 yrl old(who will be referred to as The Goose) and she usually has something to say......all the time. We have actually made a rule that she can only talk at the dinner table as long as she keeps eating. The Goose is one of those kids that, in the words of Bill Cosby, "say the darndest thing" I think they are all like that.
The Goose usually throws out words mid sentence like "dagnabit" or "boo-ya" ....even if they are not fitting to the conversation. Other times she says things that help you understand just how the wheels turn in a little persons mind.
The other morning, during our normal chaotic routine of getting ready for school, work and daycare, The Goose and I were having a discussion......and here is where the wheels start turning.
The Goose knows there are things some people must do everyday and by her understanding this she starts to list them......"Mom has to go to work, Dad has to go to work, sissy has to go to daycare, kids have to go to school, I have to go to school, grandma has to go to work, and Bernice has to make vegetables"
Pretty sure Bernice has done a lot in her life, things she would love to be remembered by, I hope making vegetables is one of them.

If I've talked to you in the last 8 months you probably know that about a year and half ago I bought a car that had a bad title......and I didn't know about it. Three words to live by: Land Rover Sucks!
It has taken me since January, and many very loud discussions, to finally get Land Rover to buy thier POS back (a huge thanks to the TV)......and even longer for them to pay it off......this will be another future blog.
I had a Hyundai Sonata before and it was a most excellent car. Hyundai has had a bad rep for a while, but over all has made great cars and they keep getting better. In my opinion Koreans are great for 2 things: Hyundai and french manicures.
My beef with my Sonata was that it was extra long and looked like grandma car; because I'm having issues with getting old I opted for a Land Rover. Once I got rid of my Land Rover I was in the market for another car. With the price of gas I was looking for something that would be efficeint and would last with high miles. I searched and searched and in the end I went with another Sonata. The newer Sonatas have a different body style which is better and helps with my longing for a young -whipper- snapper image. Although I hated my Land Rover, I was sad to be out of an SUV. I felt the SUV style suited me better....but my brother disagreed. He told me the grandma Sonota looks more like me, it's more my style. Really? But I have worked so hard to look so young! Thats a lie, but you can imagine how I sunk down inside.....my hopes of a young-whipper-snapper image is fading before me.........I think I'll go make some vegetables.
