My 96 volvo wagon's hatchback stopped working too. Had to put an old mop in the "way back" to prop the door up, after being fallen on one too many times. Despite the hatchback malfunction, and the fact that it was becoming a money pit, I miss that car.

And this is what I married my husband for. He inheirited his father's need for researching the heck out of everything, even if he's not going to buy it. I simply say I want to buy this and the research begins. The key is to look interested while he recaps the mountain of data he's accrued.

Yes, it&#39;s the garish red, faux leather, purse. Loving it. Who would&#39;ve thought I&#39;d buy a purse at Staples?<br />Virginia: Wash the floors? When? Kidding, ,sort of. Water and vinegar, mostly. They are persnickety, and easy to ignore. <br />Anonymous: Mine is a 98 model. Maybe it was a bad year??? Engine still purrs, everything else is deteriorating around it.

What! You mean my 2006 Volvo wagon with 95,000 miles on it won&#39;t make it to 200,000?

Hard to quit the Volvo. I love the built in Boosters and rumble seat! The only thing I hate on my &#39;04 XC 70 is the windshield wiper delay setting. It never wipes when I want it to. I love your photos and look forward to seeing more of them! <br />Random question: What do you wash your pine floors with?

I loved my Coolpix so much I upgraded it instead of going to another brand. Canon makes a nice, easy to use camera.<br /><br />I, too, hate car shopping. What if you choose the wrong one? Or what if, as soon as you get it off the lot, you see the one you really wanted?

I want to live in Vermont!!!! What a dreamy place.<br /><br />I hate shopping for anything except plants. I&#39;m a fan of Katriina&#39;s tendency to reply with &quot;That looks great! Get that one.&quot; That&#39;s pretty classic.

I totally know what you mean about that sense of information overload when buying anything that is technologically complex. I can&#39;t stand it either, which is why I have owned three Canon Ixus cameras in a row. I have also never owned my own car due to my absolute reluctance to engage in the activity of buying one. Luckily my husband graciously allows me to drive his - which he bought only

I *love* your photos! I love photos of inanimate objects (I swear when/if someone looks back at my life they will make something of this). I LOVE the photos of the leaves and the tree ... just gorgeous! I&#39;m so glad you got a new camera : ) Now is the other cheap thing the purse or whatever you seem to be playing with in the photo -- a new phone perhaps or MP3 player?<br /><br />Adrianne

I just love what you think to take photos of - you make everyday life look beautiful!
