I think the adult part is just now sinking in. We went to the bank to switch
her account over, only to be told that the age change hasn't taken effect in
the computer yet and we'll have to go back tomorrow. Guy told her she could
come by herself. She begged me to come with her.

Didn't have time today to get her car put in her name. My car was low on
washer fluid and when we opened the hood, we discovered nuts in there. So
off to Les Schwab I went. They took care of both problems for me for no cost
and thankfully they said no wires or anything were damaged.

Then when I got home, there was a note under the door from Terminix telling
me that there was no rat or mouse activity. I just beg to differ. Unless
perhaps it was the squirrels that got my car.
