It was warmer yesterday. Katie and I drove all the way to the Portland Airport to pick Pooky up with the sunroof wide open. It was pushing the mid 70'*. Today is a bit cooler. The wind is keeping it at 60°F.

Kim just got back from cheerleading nationals in Southern CA......her experience was FUN, absolutely terrifying, hundreds of spectators, 100 teams.......in her division, they placed 5th. Mostly getting wiped out by much larger groups.

Today, we're going swimming (indoor pool), then on Thursday, we're going to OMSI. Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. I was hoping the IMAX theater there would have the new Nascar 3D movie showing, but not yet :(

I took spring break off with the girlies

It isn't that nice here, sorry to say but my boyfriend and I are going to install my new carberator tomorrow! Yay! Maybe I'll even be able to drive it tomorrow! Then I can wash it and vacumm it and put air in the tires.... Even if the weather isn't that nice it should still be a good day.

Yeah, 'The Addiction", as I call my 99, is begging for some clay bar'age. I'm hoping for Friday afternoon. Looks like it'll be in the low 60'* so it'll go well as long as it doesn't rain too heavily Thursday (have to park in back to clean her and if the alley is muddy..... ).

Even right now it is 52* outside, good enough for some tireshine, a vacuum, and a little detailing. Possibly something for the eye candy.
