No longer on the river and, again, an empty nester. Back to living on Fleming Island and making some more friends!

All dressed up!

When Justin picked me up from the airport Monday night, I noticed he had not taken the car to the car wash as I had requested him to do. He assured me he would pay for the car wash and even had a coupon to use for it, good for a dollar off! Plus, he has a plastic crate to give me for putting my Bible study stuff in to keep it organized in the backseat and not flying all over when we drive. 

Meanwhile, my car looks cruddy inside and out, covered with yellow pollen and bird poop. Inside is lots of grass clippings as he used my car while I was gone to WI, transporting his co-worker, Raymond, and himself in their work clothes. 
I noticed my passenger seat in back was tipped down and he said, "We picked up something along the road..." I guess Raymond spotted it and they loaded it in. Well, as I was setting the seat back up again, I found two small tears in the leather on the back of the seat's headrest.  Nuts! Whatever they picked up punctured the leather. Justin is going to look into getting it repaired somehow or another. I wonder if Superglue would do the trick...

Today I am going to a fashion show fundraiser at The Club, for the Republican Women's group. My friend, Jacquie, is going with me, as she's been a long-time member and is actually on the Board as an at-large representative. 

While she has gotten a new top to wear for the event, gotten her hair and nails done, I am pulling a garment from the back of the closet to wear. As I was talking to Linda about it, I told her it was the same top I wore for Justin's graduation in 2006. She couldn't remember it---imagine that!!! Going on 8 years and she's already forgotten! Ha! I owned this flowered jacket prior to graduation and since I couldn't find something else I liked when shopping, defaulted to that particular top. And, now it comes out once again. Thankfully, it still fits!
