Matatk	Saturday Chat 01.26.13	#1
Webmaster SW Chicago Burbs 22805 Posts Member since: 2008/1/7 0:00	Good Morning CGs! Yesterday morning was rough when I left. We had about an inch of snow...yeah, just an inch, and the travel times most places were tripled or more. A normal 20 minute expressway commute was up to 2:03 according to the radio. Holy cow. I was almost late to work myself but made it in time. Roads should be clear this morning so no worries there. Found out my folks bought a new car. A 2013 Chevy Traverse. It's a crossover suv type with seating for 8. They were due for a new car, the 2000ish pt cruiser had 147,000 miles on it. They will use this to travel since it should be comfortable and they can fold the seats down for the dog and whatnot. I'm glad they picked up something new and reliable. Any big plans for the weekend? Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew

Mother Nature is being real entertaining this winter. Gonna make my first pilgrimage to the tanning place today. Later we're going out to dinner and then to see these guys, should be a good show: http://www.thefabfour.com/ Enjoy your Saturday, Gurus!

Daughter/hubby had a couple builders come over and come up with plans to renovate their basement. Their plans SUCKED. We just spent the morning coming up with a more viable solution. I think what we came up with should be less expensive, more functional version. Now they can have the contractors go from our ideas. About time to go get something to eat.
