Great books that you read! Evicted is on my must read list for this year, and Being Mortal is one that I've pushed on many others as well.

I am so sorry about your lovely dog, it is so hard to lose our furbabies and I still feel the loss of our dog after almost 2 years. We also had a bit of a rough year, not due to worldwide events, but personal ones such as the death of my father-in-law. <br /><br />I for one am looking forward to 2017 with a lot of positivity and I wish you the best of luck!<br /><br />Natalya @ Cottage Retreatist xNatalya @ Cottage Retreatisthttp://www.cottageretreatist.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34866775.post-12017308520820686412017-01-20T10:02:06.112-06:002017-01-20T10:02:06.112-06:00So much in this post!

Losing a pet is so very hard.<br />I felt a bit out of kilter with everyone else last year because many people were calling 2016 the worst year ever-but for me, 2015 was a year filled with bad health, a midlife crisis, and the death of my dad. Horrible year! So all things considered I found 2016 to be a bit of a relief, frankly. Funny how the political atmosphere pales besides personal tragedies (well, for me it does, at least).<br />I wish you the very best of luck with your new car. We have two old cars in our family and it's getting old--particularly as I have two young kids and trying to get cars fixed AND juggle car seats (and worrying about your car stranding you and kids) is ridiculous. <br />And, Matthew Desmond's book "Evicted"--unbelievable, wasn't it? Makes you thankful even for a nonworking car, if you just have a house or place to live to park it by. It's all about perspective, evidently.<br />Happy New Year, and keep up all the good work at this blog!Citizen Readerhttp://www.citizenreader.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34866775.post-81848679139648834212017-01-16T20:54:09.288-06:002017-01-16T20:54:09.288-06:00Glad to hear you love your Honda.

I had to call AAA twice; the driver remembered me the second time - I am old enough and make enough money to own a reliable vehicle.

Ever since then I'd rather make payments than repairs. You did the right thing! Heidi K. Rettighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08763667961013448030noreply@blogger.com
