Sweet Stuff: Cars and Zombie Apocalypse

This week had as much bitter as it did sweet. Starting out with our local getaway canceled because of car issues. Our Camry went up in smoke while we stopped in San Francisco for some yummy brunch at Zazie's with some friends. Engine up in smoke as soon as we parked. Thankfully it turned out to just be steam! Kinda scary.

We were fortunate to be surrounded by lots of helpful and wonderful people in Cole Valley. We made it back home safely and full of gratitude.

Car shopping then became the agenda as well as discussing our next little getaway since we will be needing it even more now than before. Although it put a damper on my spring break, much less stress than if it had happened during the work week!!! It also meant we got to spend a lot of time with family locally this week. We had dropped our dog off with them and she was having the time of her life. We hung out there a few times this week and also had the time of our life with family. It was worth coming home and remembering to make the little things priority too. 

After pouring over computers and spreadsheets neurotically, I dragged my husband out for some hiking/trail running. We talked cars a bit, but we were also able to take in the fresh air and relaxing surroundings! At one point after some great conversation we were both silently walking side by side. 

Reading my husband's mind I said, "We are both quiet because we are both thinking about cars right now" He responded, "Yes, and the difference between what we are thinking right now is that you are debating which cars will better fit dogs, groceries, and future children....whereas I'm more concerned about which car will be able to go further on one tank of gas when the zombie apocalypse occurs and there is no gasoline left." Hysterically true. Love him so much!  

That weird thing I'm holding onto I fondly refer to as a "bumbag" aka a fanny pack for my type 1 diabetes plethora of goods. I'm trialling this bag and probably going to stick with a backpack Camelback.
