In order to help me keep up with taking pictures, I'm posting them regularly.... Here are a few more for you! (they are totz out of order, as you can tell)

| January 27 -- I thought I'd share some color with you all. My computer has a "skin" on it, and I'm always getting compliments, and the item with the bird is my new pencil pouch bought at this etsy shop. I just love having colorful and original things, and I get so many compliments on these two! |

| January 28 -- The taco salad I made for lunch with the leftovers from taco Thursday! It was delicious. It got: TVP, black beans, lettuce, cucumber, red, green, and orange bell pepper, cilantro, and some cheese piled on the plate and is surrounded by chips. I don't typically like eating leftovers, but I'm trying to be better about that! |

| January 28 again...notice the 2nd Auffenberg logo? Yeah....I had to take my car back to the shop Friday because the check engine light came back on Thursday. I was sure peeved, but luckily they didn't charge me and told me to simply run some good (high octane, high performance) gas through my car.....so, that's what I'm doing! :) | |

| January 29--Such a beautiful day in Southern Illinois. So beautiful, in fact, that I packed up with my friend Janelle, and we drove out to Starview Vineyards for a little while. I really like the way the sun is peeking through those trees in this picture (which I took with my cell phone--boy oh boy was I mad at myself for having forgotten to grab my good Digital SLR when I left). |

January 26 -- I'm sharing this picture because it was such an important part of my day Wednesday....if not important, it certainly occupied a good deal of my day!
Auffenberg is the Saturn Certified Service center in town, and my "check engine" light came on, so I took it in for $1000 worth of repairs. Luckily, my 2005 Ion II has an extended warranty (yay Dr.B and me for thinking to invest in that), and we saved $500. What was wrong? Um....it needed a tune-up (spark plugs, fuel filter, and the like), and the added costs are the replacement of my ignition switch (which apparently had a short in it) and some other maintenance stuff that I opted to get done (coolant flush, brake fluids, etc.).
I am a firm believer in taking good care of my car, and I encourage you to do the same!

i love your pencil bag! i also love colorful, original things like that :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a really great fabric bag, Courtney, and it seems durable! I bought it from an etsy shop (I linked it above after your comment thinking that might be an appropriate move), and she made me a matching hand mirror that is easy to carry inside the bag for when I'm at school. :)
