Nothing 4 Nothing

Buon Natale Tutti... It is a damp day today. My car wouldn't start this morning then after several tries it started. I'm not a mechanic but from the sound it made, it didn't seem like the battery was the problem. I call my car "it" I should call it "him" since most guys refer to their automobiles as "she". I never understood why a car is a "she" how do they know the gender??
I learned something new watching the Today Show, that bon bon means good good in French. I never thought of it that way...when I think of bon bons I think of chocolate candies and never what the word really means. A invited me to their house for Christmas, since it is a 3 hour drive I doubt if I will go, never-the-less it felt good to be invited. I've been waiting 3 weeks for a package to arrive from the mid-West...I think it is either crawling here by snail mail or lost. Hope it's not lost, tracking it would be a chore. R said she found a nickel in the bottom of the gift bag I gave her yesterday. I told her that was her main gift from me, the wrapped packages will go down hill from there. I don't remember losing a nickel in her bag or even being around coins when I was packaging her gifts.
