Planetary Rant! 

Let me get this off my chest so I can think! If you've been wondering why an email or text or call hasn't been answered, here's the answer! For the past 2 weeks, my "smartphone" has had a mind of its own, and will sometimes takes a charge & sometimes not. SO, my immediate connection to GPS, directions, email et al has been sketchy at best. If all goes as planned, this will be resolved by a new "smartphone" arriving tomorrow. Fingers are crossed that Amazon honors the original warranty. 

In case that's not enough, my last evening (literally 5:45 pm) in Gainesville had me listening to an auto scraping sound that would not go away! Yes, new rear brakes AND rotors at 8pm thanks to Tire Kingdom and $354. I really do love owning STUFF. 

I do hope that bad things DON'T come in threes! I do believe that all of this is mercury retrograde rearing its ugly head at me! It went direct yesterday, February 12th! HOORAY! I can breathe freely now.
