Most of my cars over the years have been Fords starting with a 1968 Mustang that I wish I still had. I would work at my uncle's gas station pumping gas, sweeping, changing tires, etc. and one of his regulars had this car for sale for $1100 with low miles. I borrowed the money from whoever I could put the arm on and repaid every penny. I put over 110K miles on the car and sold it for $500. That baby did not owe me a dime. It was olive green with a three speed stick on the floor. I also fell in love with a 2000 blue 6 cyl. Mustang convertible. I traded out of that for a white 2006 Mustang Pony car which now has close to 90K miles so I am starting to think of a newer Mustang rag. The pony is in my blood.<br />PatPat Scaleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00148601231866277374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776343890232020343.post-6839564211936938722013-09-02T19:54:42.816-05:002013-09-02T19:54:42.816-05:00Be nice now!

I think that the fact that she was nice about it is part of WHY it bothers me - she was clearly being sincere . . .

You pretty much coined the phrase flying "pretty", your fan base knows what you mean (and we like it), and if one one feminist woman's lip, I mean lib, type gets a hair across her butt and doesn't like it, she can darn well get on to something she enjoys. Be the J.K.

He advises against taking "T" supplements unless it IS causing you medical issues and then ONLY that necessary to bring the blood level back to the lower levels of the "Normal" range (which are pretty low). In other words think real hard about doing the "T" thing even if the insurance will pay for it. There's a LOT of hype regarding "T" supplements. There's also a HUGE danger of taking these things too.

Rowling apparently was less inclined to be cowed by that reader's opinions than you are to consider yours. Her response was that SHE writes the books and she DOESN'T need consensus. That reader can write her own books, if she wants to.<br /><br />While you may not enjoy the financial rewards that Rowling has amassed (alas, most of us don't), you have a loyal following, as well. Part of the reason for that is the easy flowing and casual style in which you write. Your readers are adults who should be able to accept that style. If they can't, dumbing it down to get their acceptance will only cheapen it and we will all be the losers.<br /><br />In other words, keep on keepin' on.<br /><br />Thank you for what you do. As a part-time blogger, I know how hard it can be.<br />Susan Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04251019293050087759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776343890232020343.post-39440912223047477562013-08-31T15:15:43.956-05:002013-08-31T15:15:43.956-05:00thank you for sharing. i must say ANYTHING you wri...thank you for sharing. i must say ANYTHING you write about is a joy to read. i love your writing style! i think we all feel that when we grow up we all want to be able to write like Kimberly!<br /><br />i keep a 2.oo bill i earned while working for a short at a cafeteria type seasonal restaurant when i was first out of college just to remind me of how hard some folks work to earn a income. but that doesn't begin to compare with the work you did in helping your father in law.<br /><br />good luck with the new ford addition! it looks kind of cute with in the ford collection.<br />if i found i had low T i don't think i'd go for the meds as i'd be afraid it would affect my Diana side. whom i've sort of gotten used to.

My mother is gone, my Grandmother is gone, and even most of my aunts and uncles are gone. I have long since learned to make sure you tell the people you care about the things that you would want then to know. My father-in-law knows exactly how I feel about him - that he is by far and away the closest thing I've ever had to a father, and that I am filled with admiration and respect for him. I've made DARN sure that he knows this. :)<br />Kimberly Huddlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11668019327622021786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776343890232020343.post-73745145864900890982013-08-31T13:05:33.269-05:002013-08-31T13:05:33.269-05:00I have no idea.
