Hope Yours was a Good Weekend Too

I did no work, attended a party and yesterday I sewed and didn’t talk, so a perfect Sunday really.

I’m out swapping cars (1st ever Toyota today) then have a late day meeting so will update after all that TTYL

Sharing some Driving Tricks, Part 2

From how keyless entry fobs contain a key, to hiding the pink slip and never programming the navigation with your actual address under “home” (a thief then knows where it is, and where you’re not.)

Thanks this week to contributors Paul and Brian!

Read it online at Autonet.

Favourite line:

Use the passenger seat heater to keep your takeout warm. Prop the pizza box up on a can, now the box will sit flat on a seat that is not.

Again, I know, I’m Sorry

Can you tell I am not into it? Probably.

Hi from the couch. It’s the grey days, plus the cold, a metaphorical sucker punch in the gut bahhh. So cheap, to sucker. I should tweet that line.

I’m drowning in newspaper deadlines, it’s business year end plus a drawer of Life Admin… sorry but taking the rest of the week off here, to get things in order to start a fresh year. Reminder that corporate taxes are due soon.

Back to regular daily updates on Monday… we’re off to Michigan next week for Ford’s annual Christmas party, and tomorrow’s column I’m trying something new, a sequel: Driving Tricks Part 2.

Still in the Civic, still loving the throw.

Been sewing.

I love sewing, specifically quilting. Here’s the first one I ever made #BenefitOfBlogging

In my mind, setting up my machine was a benchmark in the 4-month saga that was my house winterization project. A kind’ve finishing move, “kk when the renovation is complete, I get to just live in it and do things like sew” benchmark.

Achieved that Sunday, and it’s distracting me. Currently working on curtain tie-backs.

Modified this old piece using left-over curtain fabric, therefore all fabric in my house is exactly the same YES how’s that for plain.  Love plain.

You’ve seen this cabinet on my blog since 2007.  Best it’s ever looked.

Was introduced to this truck.. OKAY have you seen this thing in action – 2015 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6×6

Something that big and heavy that can move like that PHFT… I’ll go find you a video link brb….. here, Top Gear, Richard Hammond drives in the dunes of Dubai.

And here’s me… curling my hair in a parking lot.

This time, Jeremy and I are having a coffee.

Mega Test Team Unite

You’ve met Jeremy before, we’ve tested together probably 6 vehicle launches, we have it down to a science, we’re Mega Test Team.

Here’s a couple videos from when we went off-roading with a Raptor in Alberta, and I lost control of my neck while Jeremy was driving.

Me recently.

And here’s me signing off till Monday TTY then XO

TTY Tomorrow

At a spontaneous party at my neighbour’s, and I was so unfocused today that you’re not missing much anyway TTYT

They’re making me listen to old rock and guess the artist and title, but I just don’t hear it like, 70s rock is this dull, drone sound that my brain automatically tunes out.
