Friday Fill in 4

1. The best money that I ever spent was on my cat and the worst was on over priced airport food. (Sorry this was a hard question.) : )

2. My most memorable vacation was with my family at various places in the Northeast.

3. It gets to me when people keep on driving through flood waters when everyone warns them not to. Then their car gets stuck, or worse and they need help.... Don't drive through flooded roads!

4. Once I was about to drive through flooded waters that was under a over pass, while trying to escape from driving through heavy rain on a freeway. My windshield wipers didn't work so great, so I wasn't able to see that well. I thought I could find a road without having to get on the freeway, but then ended up driving near an under pass that was filled with flowing water. I quickly backed up and escaped. Everyone behind me was more than willing to drive right on through that underpass and I thought. "Oh, no!"

Picture of the underpass.

    You were wise to turn around and not drive where it was flooded. I too often wonder why people take chances like that. Stay safe!

      I guess they think they can make it because they drive through the same roads everyday. But if you can't see the road. I think it's best not to drive through it.

    Great answers! I tend to spend more on my furkids than I do on myself, they are worth it! Yes, airport food is overpriced and rarely very good. The flooding in Houston is horrible, and I also wonder why people insist on trying to see if their vehicles can navigate in deep water. I think we should just let them sit there if they do, rather than risk the lives of rescuers who have important work to do! You were very wise to turn around, it not only kept you safe but your vehicle from being damaged by getting water in the engine!

      Yeah I figured either my car, or myself was going to be washed away, so I decided to turn around.

    Thank you for participating in the fill-ins, I enjoyed your answers. I agree money on a cat is the best spent. I haven't been in an airport since my honeymoon over 23 years ago so I didn't know how expensive the food was. I hope you stay safe ,very smart not to drive through there.

      Well I don't know what the price for food was 23 years ago, but it is expensive now, or over priced anyway... Thanks!

    LOL, years ago, there was a mega rain storm & I was driving to work --- the road dipped under a railroad overpass... I came to a screeching halt because there was a lot of water... a VW honked as it passed me, but about twenty feet later, it was obvious that it was floating... it was yellow. Biggest 'rubber ducky' ever.

      That's ok. That's what I was worried about my car getting stuck and stalling out. Thanks for stopping by!

Toy Cars And a New Computer!

Image
Look at all of my toy cars! I was just organizing them before I put them into a different box, but I had to move them a little early to make some roof for my new computer! So back into the box they went! I've always wanted to arrange my toy cars like this since I was a kid, when I would see them arranged like this in toy car collector magazines and books, I thought it looked pretty cool. Anyway I had to get a new computer because my laptop's screen finally went out and it was becoming slow. It would sometimes take couple of minutes to load a webpage, so I knew I had to get a new computer. I got a Lenovo from Microcenter. It's refurbished, but it looks and works like new. Microcenter also gives you a keyboard and mouse, but it doesn't come with a monitor unless you want one, but it will cost you  a little extra. The whole computer with keyboard and mouse cost a hundred dollars with thirty dollar shipping, very cheap and works better than my laptop.  The rea...

White Lies

She smiled through her white lies as she wandered from table to table. Being a waitress was not one of her funnest jobs and she didn't feel like explaining the menu to every single person. "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "IS THAT FOOD GREAT?" "WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?" "They are all good!" she would say with a wearied smile. She didn't think that the food was all that good though, except for maybe the hamburger, but even that wasn't all that great either and she wanted to tell the truth, but it was her only job and she didn't want to lose it. Wandering and wandering through the tables day in and day out. Until one day she collapsed and it happened, the pasta fell all over the man in the suits shirt. "I ordered the food to eat it, not wear it!" Said the man in the suit with a sarcastic tone to the waitress. The waitress looked at the man in horror. "I'll..I'll...clean it up" she ...
