On a completely different topic...

I'm not in a very good mood today. Took Quinn out to get a new pair of shoes (those feet are growing even if he continues to lurk around 36 pounds) this morning. In the mere hour that we were gone I saw at least ten examples of rude, dangerous and completely ridiculous driving.

In the Target parking lot three people decided that actually having to go up and down the aisles to find a parking place was just too much work. Flying sideways and screeching to a halt seemed like a better idea. One woman almost rear-ended me she was going so fast, and then came within a foot of running over the elderly couple crossing to the store. Incredible.

Then the guy in the Mercedes. This guy deserved a little road rage. All I can hope is that he is upside down on that gas-guzzling car.

And apparently Thursdays are 'Turn Signal Optional" day. Grrr.

Anyway, it was not a good driving morning. Am soooooo glad to be safely at home, playing trains, discussing lunch and discussing the relative merits of green versus orange balloons.

Life is good. Just not behind the wheel.

Too cute! I LOVE that photo of you two! Glad you made it home without any actual run-ins with crazy drivers. A morning of trains and lunch decisions sounds wonderful.
