Glad it's a new week

We're in a quandary about Mr. Bennett's car. It ended up costing us $900 to repair his Jeep on Friday. Thankfully, he has a car again, but we don't know if we should cut our losses before we really have to sink some money into that car or keep it until it dies. I'm leaning toward selling it now while it's still in good shape to buy a car that gets better mileage. Mr. Bennett really wants to sell it after he saw that his car is fourth from the bottom on some reliability list. We'll see.I bought a new stroller last week and got to use it a lot while Mr. Bennett had my car on Friday. This was my view a good part of the day as we walked to schools to pick up kids, walked to Bennett's to check on the house while they're gone, and walked to the park to meet our ward play group.
I feel like there is a dark cloud over our house. It's keeping all the sick germs in so we get reinfected every couple weeks. I am resolved to do a major, deep spring cleaning starting with the kids room. Bring on some warmer weather so we can get out of this funk.

Here's your funny-punny for the day. Dave was waiting in line to return Bolt at the RedBox (thanks Thompsons!) on Friday night. The guy in the front of the line was taking forever to look through the movies so everyone else in line got to talking. The lady in front of Dave mentioned that she was thinking of renting Milk (coughlameideachoughcough) and turned to Dave to confirm it was a "political drama" when explaining it to another woman. Just then the lady's teenage son walks up with his giant slurpee and Doritos in hand. Mom looks at son and says, "I think I want to rent Milk." Son looks at her with a puzzled look and says, "How do you rent milk?"

If we had to pay the $1 anyway, might as well get our money's worth. I'm glad you guys enjoyed it.

Very funny-punny! Thanks for sharing.
