What a Wonderful Wednesday
What a great way to start the day............. I was on my way to work, pouring rain, running a few minutes late AND my engine light comes on and I lose power. I quickly start to panic and then it stops. I breathe a sigh of relief and it starts again. All I could picture was me and Payton sitting on the side of the road in the pouring rain. I immediately start praying.......... please just let me get to the Nissan place AND I made it. Whewwwww!!
I'm sure I will have a nice little unexpected BIG bill but I guess it could be worse.
Hope everyones morning has started out better than mine!!

The NC Zoo - Our 1st Trip
What a perfect day we had. The weather was wonderful. The zoo was not crowded. For a 22 month old, Payton was wonderful. Not even a whine or a cry all day. Payton enjoyed the animals but the giraffe was her favorite. Below is a couple of pictures and I will post more in the future.
Payton's favorite ....... the giraffe.
Payton and I posing by the statue that she loved for some reason.

An old tackle box can be used for other things besides a tackle box. I currently use one now for a tool box. In the bottom I have a hammer, screw drivers, and a wrench. In the compartments I have nails, thumb tacks, picture holders, and a tape measure. I have also seen antique tool boxes used for desk organizers to hold notepads, pens, paper clips, stamps etc.
