It's Real Life -- How I Roll



I'm adventuring into something new today! Mandy's been doing the "It's Real Life" blogs for awhile, so I thought I'd join her! Since this week is titled "How I Roll" it's very appropriate that I start with this one...since I love my Holly Honda! I got Holly while I was in college and am quite proud of myself for handling all the payments while I went through school. Striving to pay for something certainly gives you more of an appreciate for it! So here's a few shots of what Holly looks like today...uncleaned and unedited (per the rules of the post)!!








Here's my beautiful car.



My Virginia Tech magnet



As soon as I opened the door a certain pup just HAD to jump in! She loves to go for a ride!



I got the iPod for my birthday and got the FM transmitter as well so I can listen in the car. It certainly helps make the 1.5 hours in the car to and from work each day more bearable!



Baby wipes are a must! I like to wipe off my hands after I pump gas, plus they are a great thing to have up at the property!



Let's sort through the mess in the back seat, shall we? Don't judge...lol! This has become part of where we live out of up at the property! So...I have a few coats/sweatshirts back there, my garbage can, a few reusable grocery bags, some Cheese Its, a notebook, a camp chair, and an umbrella are a few things I know I have.



And finally...my trunk. Yes, those are wood planks in there! A few years ago I had an oil leak in the trunk so Ben pulled up the carpet and the cardboard type layer that things were resting on. He ended up throwing out the cardboard layer and replacing it with boards, and he salvaged the carpet. Well, a few months ago we had another oil situation. This time the carpet got tossed too. So back here I have a couple of cintranella candles for up at the property, my emergency kit (black box), and a crate for car supplies.

So there you have it...a look at "How I Roll." Join me in the fun of "It's Real Life"!
