It's the little things

Every couple of years, I change the design on my Discover card.  I don't really know why, maybe because it makes spending money more fun???  It's the same reason I like to have checks with designs on them--it makes paying bills more fun.  This weekend I got my new Discover card in the mail.  I chose one with the picture of a sea turtle on it. :)


(don't worry--this is the image from the Discover page, not a picture of my card)

Last year versus this year

Last year I bought myself a car for Valentine's Day.

 This year, I bought myself flowers.  I figured I was still paying off the car, so I shouldn't be quite so extravagant two years in a row!

So, Happy Anniversary to my car!  The anniversary was yesterday, but I was celebrating by taking it for a spin to a friend's house for a Euchre tournament.  But it has been a fun year of travelling and tooling around town for fun and work.  15,555 miles later, it is still running well.  It has a few dings and scratches and it is extremely dirty right now, so I didn't take an exterior picture again.  And that remote start I splurged on?  Best $400 I've spent in a really long time.  I take full advantage of it most mornings!
