To everyone that has contacted me in the last couple of weeks while I was visiting family - I'm back now and will slowly try to play catch up. I'm feeling terribly down about having to leave my family again, so please don't feel like I am ignoring if you don't hear back from me right away. I'll be honest in saying that I didn't even feel like getting out of bed this morning, much less getting on the computer.

I enjoyed the blog carnival and couldn't agree more with emancave and the fact that hybrid car manufacturers are a little lost on producing a vehicle that someone would want to be seen in... I have faith that they'll come around.
