We all know it gets harder to remember things and learn anything new the older we get. Add to that a complete change in your location. Each day we are dealing with a new hurdle….and we haven’t gone anywhere near a running track!
We want to change our car insurance but we can’t do that until we register our cars and we can’t do that until we pass the driver’s test and we can’t do that until we LEARN THE RULES. In Oregon you need to be alert to state troopers with speed guns and also those with stop watches. You can get ticketed if you leave your car door open longer than is deemed necessary. Glad that is specific! Also, not allowed to pump your own gas. It takes some doing to STAY IN THE CAR when you drive into a gas station. The attendants may not have on the white uniforms with the military style caps, but they run to your car and take care of you pronto. Kind of cool.
It's illegal to walk down the street in Portland with your shoes untied…..so I am on the hunt for ugly, old lady shoes! I also heard it’s illegal to predict the future in Yamhill…..but I’m not sure if that means I can’t determine the future while I’m in Yamhill or if I can’t predict the future of Yamhill while I am in Beaverton. Another research project.
Last night we got the bright idea to search for a cleaning lady on the internet. Did you know you can get a cleaning lady who will also sage your home and end with a massage? So many choices. We went into the project thinking we just wanted a clean house…..but now we are rethinking that option. Joe is opting for plan C and Gabi and I are going with the “CLEAN THE DAMN HOUSE” option. More on that later.
