My vehicle has been in the “shop” for the past few days and if tomorrow goes as expected, repairs will be done by the end of the night on Wednesday (finger crossed).  It’s looking like the repairs will be around $2000 but could be much higher.  Stinks, stinks, stinks.  So anyway, today’s Top 10 List is about all the other things I would rather have blown $2k on if I had an extra $2k to blow.

1. A Romantic Tropical Vacation

2.  Practically every camera lens I ever wanted

3.  About 700 ice cream treats ~ enough to last me 10 years

4. Girls Get-Away somewhere with all my Besties

5.  A lifetime supply of shoes

6. A new wardrobe

7. Large Flat Screen TV

8.  New Mac to replace home computer

9. New carpet

10.  One-0f-a-kind Artwork

But instead I am putting it into my car.  Nothing fun about that at all.

I am not a big movie person, but I can be quite emotional/sensitive sometimes when I watch them.  It seems like there are many movies that have made me cry but these are the ones over the years that really made an impact on me when I watched them for the first time.

2. E.T.

3. Bambi

4. Forrest Gump

5. Beaches

6.  Steel Magnolias

12. My Girl
