I don’t have good stories to tell, but I’ll try to get back to telling something.
Yes, we have a new car. Lloyd should really be the one to tell it, but we all know he’s never going to do that. He had a whole big spreadsheet of all the cars in a 100-mile radius that he was interested in, and there were five in Omaha. Last Thursday he drove up to see them….. and three had sold that very day. He looked at the other two, and after a fair amount of haggling, bought a 2022 Prius with 40,000-some miles on it.
I didn’t see it in the daylight for two days. He got home in the dark on Thursday night, we left in the dark Friday, he got back in the dark late Friday night, and Saturday we drove it to his technology sale at school.
It’ll do. It has more gadget-y things and doohickeys, but that’s to be expected when it’s 11 years older than the last model. It has a more detailed screen, but it was too dark and blurry to take a good photo.
The tech sale went just fine. Sam, Gracen and Samith were all there to help. It wasn’t terribly busy at any point, but I didn’t mind that one bit.
It went until 1 (except for one guy who stayed extra late picking out his stuff). The workers all ate pizza, cleaned up by 3-ish, then I left to let Lloyd and the kids figure out the money. (I saw the car in the daytime!)
This story goes on, but that will be tomorrow’s bit.
