Long Day

So I got home after a LONG day at work. The express lanes were closed this morning so I lost one of the four remaining free days I was supposed to have. The weather was yucky and I'm fighting a cold. I checked my email and found something to make me smile. You have got to look at this layout Audrey made! How can you not smile when you see that picture? Everyone sitting around with their own computer! I think they really are a normal family!


Audrey said she used paper by twinchies. If someone can point me in that direction, I would appreciate it! If you missed this wordart and would still like to get it you can pick it up here

I tried playing with April's new kits tonight. Just remember that I'm taking cold medicine. LOL! Here's what I came up with...





Her kits are awesome and you can click on the previews below to go check them out. Remember she's having a sell!





OK, I've got to go to bed or I'll never get up in the morning! I've got two goodies for you! They're both in the same zip file so you can use both or go with which ever one you're in the mood for. LOL!

To pay or not to pay?

Well, I found my car this morning and survived another Monday. The weather is taking another cold turn and it's supposed to drop into the 50's tonight. YUCK!

Here's my dilemma---Do I pay to drive in the express lanes on the interstate or not? Milage wise it's better for me to drive up Collins Avenue to get to work every morning, but time wise it's much faster to take the interstate. On Collins, I have a slower speed limit and lots of stoplights. On the interstate, I have lots of traffic and if there's an accident forget about getting anywhere.

Last summer, Dade County opened up express lanes on the interstate. Those lanes have come in handy in the mornings! Starting Friday, you will have to pay to drive in those lanes and the amount you will pay depends on the amount of traffic at the time. It may cost as little as a quarter or as much as $6.00.

Now, I do have the advantage of going in the opposite direction of most traffic. In the mornigs I head north while most people are heading south and in the afternoons I'm coming south while the heavier traffic is heading south. But, if you've ever driven on Interstate 95 in Dade County, you know that even if you're going in the opposite direction of the heavier traffic---you're still in heavy traffic. LOL!

Now, I've spent the last five months using the express lanes for free and it's been really nice! I've gotten used to it, but I just don't know if I really want to pay money to go to work. What do you think?

OK, enough about that! Here's today's wordart. Again, there is no special reason for this. I just like it! Click here to download.

I'm off to take a shower now. Have a great day!
