- --beware of road water that cars throw like a tsunami toward the pedestrians on the sidewalks.
- --walkways can be icy during the winter months. Wear sensible footwear and avoid shiny spots.
- --scraped sidewalks are a one-way street. Please yield to oncoming pedestrians.
- --stray dogs follow pedestrians all the way to your front gate.

- --think and plan ahead and avoid extra trips.
- --remember that you always wanted time for your daily exercise program.
- --don't think of the taxi you could have called for $3.
- --you become more thankful for your reliable? transportation.
So, for one day we had our limousine parked in front of our house. Finally, this fiasco was over. We can get down to normal life once again and put all these problems behind us. After all, they take up a lot of time to track down all the things needed.
This morning, our friends asked if they could borrow the limo for a day trip to Lublin. Ok, why not? Nothing like getting your van one day and losing it the next. They graciously left theirs in our driveway in case we needed anything.
Well, this afternoon, Lavern calls...."Hey, I'm having a little problem with your van." What can be wrong now? "We got back to your van after walking the town to find the side window totally busted out, and glass everywhere. Lolita's purse with my cell phone and 70 PLN were swiped from inside. No, they didn't take the car registration, thankfully." oh, great...just when we thought life was getting easy...so back to the shop we go...what more, God, what more?
