I do feel really conspicuous now driving my car. I previously drove a Buick Le Sabre and it was the stealth-mobile. No one ever noticed me or if they did, they assumed I was 75 years old and driving 15 miles under the speed limit. Now I am zippy! And also peppy! And kinda (not really) hip with the cool tire cover. Whatever. I love it and my kids can find the car now in the Target parking lot where I am parked with the other 800 CR-Vs. And that&#8217;s all that matters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Day 137: Having a really hard time getting motivated by the artsy business this week.
