On my way to work!

I saw an interesting post eons ago about what a person sees on their way to work. I thought I would show you what i see on my way to work! Okkkk, here is how I start my day...I open the passenger side of my very dirty car (which I'm slowly cleaning) and I toss my purse and work stuff on the seat! Note--you can actually almost see the car floor! Thats a lot of progress for me!
Okkkk, I cheated alittle, I forgot to take some pictures on my way--so i went back out tonight in our mini van--lol, so you may notice the car looks different. This is the stop and go lights on my way to work. I drive about 18 miles to work--takes me about 20 minutes to get there--depending if I speed or drive so slow because I'm yakking on the cell phone.
This is Applebees--Pizza hut--a little mall type place I pass up!
This is the Rock River, which is way flooded out. Actually here-it looks mild compared to what it is right next to my work. This river has been causing our area anquish for the last two years. Its claimed many homes, playgrounds, benches, and it just stinks to high heaven. We sooo want it to go back to its normal level.
This is where i end up for alittle of my day. I check my email, enter case notes, listen to my soothing CD'S, and please note-the little bird cage on the desk. I brought that to work thinking it would be so cute to have a fake chirping birdie serenade me. Well, i turned him on and he's motion activated and people just breathe in the next cubicle and he starts twirping...I turned him off about 5 minutes after I got him. He's more annoying than a boss! LOL....Sooo this is how I spend my days Monday--thru Thursday. I hope you enjoyed riding with me to work!

10 Thanks for your comments!:

Oh that was a great idea to do that Dawnie. Really interesting. Umm, my car looks the same by the way although we drive on the left hand side of the road and our steering wheel is on the right hand side of the car. As for yur desk now that is a very tidy desk!!! Have a great day!

That was fun Dawnie. I enjoyed the ride. Why does the river stink? Your red rhinestone flip flops sound so cute. I want some red polka dot ones. ~ Lynn

That was interesting, Dawn, seeing your drive each morning. I see all the snow melted finally.
My car needs a good cleaning too, now that it is warming up. The front of it has dead bugs on it from driving out in the desert.
Have a good weekend.

I love this post...what a fun thing to do...I'll have to give it a try....too bad that water smells and has claimed things...otherwise it would be pretty....too bad the bird was too annoying to enjoy...that's a bummer. I enjoyed seeing the area where you live...thanks for the sightseeing trip...
