magical dreamer

It appears I've responded to the amount of pressure I've been under by being on holiday mode; as have my classmates- or some of them at least. But I will study. I should study. My daughter's nursery sent home a teddy bear with her last weekend and apparently it's a class thing where every child gets to take Mr. Bear home with them one weekend. There was a scrapbook in her backpack that I guess I am supposed to add pictures of her with Mr. Bear from. The scrapbook was really lovely, I enjoyed going through it with her and having her point out the names of her friends. But there were at least 2 children that she didn't know. Oh yes, I haven't posted much about my car! The 2016 Audi Q7 is an absolute dream to drive. I'm very pleased with it. I don't think I want to drive anything else now after I've been spoiled by this car. Here is an interior shot from earlier today.

So...I booked the car. They had it in white and silver (or it is more grey, actually). So the color is called graphite grey pearl, the interior is cedar brown valcona leather. Another thing that really amazed me is the isofix in all seats except the driver's seat (naturally). Hoping to have this new baby by next week!

So I keep browsing the adidas website and especially the Stella Mccartney collections. I have my eyes on a couple of pieces but I'm not going to oblige myself this one. The only reason I'll allow myself to purchase new gym clothes is if I lose a lot of weight and my current ones are too big. I doubt this would happen as this plateau I've hit seems like it's no longer a plateau and just a straight line. As for the car, the dealership informed me that they currently only have it in white and silver with the interior combination that I prefer. It doesn't matter to me too much so I will probably just go for the white. I hope that it is still available next week as I'm not going to make the commitment too fast!

I think I prefer this interior package with the wood trims. It's so beautiful! I know it seems like I'm focusing on aesthetics, but if I'm going to pay that much for a car and have it last a decade with me, it has to mostly work and look the way I want it to!

I'm so frustrated that the iPhone blogger app keeps crashing and there have been no updates to it. I can't post as much as I would like as I'm not always using the laptop. Yesterday I tried the Audi Q7 and I really love it. I'm going to take time to think about it a bit more. It costs a bit more than I expected (the prices that you can get online are only averages or estimates or w/e), but it's worth it in my opinion. Driving it feels like driving a feather but this feather is powerful. It does not feel like an SUV at all, it's so petite! It's an absolute treat to drive. Tiny but powerful and very quiet. I still think I should give the Mercedes-Benz a look but I've been reading comparisons that state that the Q7 is actually roomier. 

It seems I have a different flavor of the week in terms of cars so far, but as I've probably said to myself before. It will all depend on the test drive. This is the Audi Q7. I never thought I'd want an Audi. The girls at school used to go crazy for Audis but it just wasn't a name I knew or paid attention to. I knew Mercedes-Benz & BMW, that was pretty much all I knew about cars. These days, however, I could see a car passing by and without even seeing the name I'd know, ah, that' a BMW. A family member recommends the Mercedes-Benz equivalent of the Audi Q7 as it is probably a little more spacious, but I think I'll post about it another time. A few days ago I met up with a friend out and we shopped at Sephora then had dinner. My kids came along and it seems like everyone had a great time. I feel lighthearted and happy that I got to do something with other adults! Next week Hermes is opening at a new mall and we have been invited to attend the openi...
