Getting a little "shack-wacky".

So, I'm getting better (and the Buckley's didn't kill me). This is FABULOUS! I still feel sub-par, but I'm pretty sure I'm not going to need a trip to the doctor and a prescription, so as far as I'm concerned: KJ 1, Cold 0.

I've been inside the house since Saturday afternoon, though, and cabin fever is starting to settle in. I'm not exactly roaming the house talking to myself (although it's hard to tell because Piper usually accompanies me from room to room, and I could be fooling myself that I'm talking to her), but I'm starting to get a little antsy.
On the smart car front, I just noticed as I paid my bills online that there was a contest where, if you registered to receive your bills online, you could win one of three smart cars. So what the heck! One less bill in mailbox, one point for the environment, and maybe one cute little car in the driveway. Sounds good to me!

I wonder if they'd let me upgrade, as the prize is a "pure" coupe and not a "passion", and I really want the panoramic moon roof and heated seats! (Spoiled rotten, I am!) The rules and regulations say that the winner pays for any extra "accessories", so maybe it's possible. I just went on the "build your smart" site, and to add the moon roof, heated seats and mirrors, upgraded stereo, alarm system, fog lights, and the other options I like, it would cost an extra $3730. That's still much cheaper than to buy my little buggy outright! Also, the rules say that the winner might be eligible for the $2000 eco-rebate from the federal government, and I'm pretty sure I could get $1000-2000 for poor Betsy, so ... *grin*

Let's hope that the stars are really aligned in my favour, though. I could only get one entry, as only one bill is in my name (the rest are in Hubby's), but maybe ... just maybe. Oh, and no worries about the fact that it's white in the picture. There's the usual line about the "prize may not be exactly as shown", and if I don't like the colour, I'll just get new yellow panels and swap them for the originals! The draw is October 20th, so let's cross our fingers, shall we?

Coming back to reality ... I might do some hooking today. I still haven't finished my frame cover yet.
