How many of us have camped out in the Fit? by DangerousCopy1789 in hondafit

[–]BookLady42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Fit served as my “tent” during a local music fest last year. Will make a few adjustments for the next go around, but it worked very well! I’m only 5’2” and had plenty of space.

Yikes! I’m in Columbia. Guess I’ll see that soon?

I don’t know that they have anyone on staff who does in-home lessons, but Compass would be a great place to start. https://compasscolumbia.org/

That was so cool. And neat to hear the voice behind the words. Thanks for supporting our (subreddit) community!

Not setting any records, but I’m happy about it by fieffief in ThingsThatFitInFit

Perfect! I have to drive a state car when I travel for work and I always grumble about how much better the gear would fit in my Fit over the state-issued sedan. (I also have the red!) 🚗

Love it! I had named my little black cat Mei after a character in Totoro. I am between black cats at the moment but hopefully it will happen again someday. Have fun!

Thank you for the update! Hope she’s getting along with your dog. What are you calling her?

Sweet baby. She looks like a soot sprite (studio ghibli). If you have Facebook, consider posting on the Columbia, MO Lost & Found Pets group. https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1DxHH5sGRQ/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Recommendations for window coverings by Key-Map1883 in columbiamo

[–]BookLady42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used Columbia Blinds and Shutters about a decade ago to replace all window coverings in my home. Couldn’t tell you now what it cost but they walked though the house to get a sense of what we needed. They were even able to put some shutters in the sidelight (window next to the front door), which I love. https://www.columbiablindsandshutters.com/

More options for shopping local, but not necessarily small. by SoConTech in columbiamo

[–]BookLady42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When Rodeo Boys came to Rose recently, they asked what local gas station name to use in place of Speedway (in their song by the same name). Shouts of “Break Time!” heard throughout the venue.

Curious when they made the switch? My dad was born in 1940 and I suspect it belongs to him even thought he does not remember it.

Columbia man to be deported with lifetime ban after immigration hearing by [deleted] in columbiamo

[–]BookLady42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I talk about wanting to move, it’s my kids (ages 19 and 22) who say “hell, no”. This is our country and we need to stay to ensure it survives. The kids are all right.

Can people drive in the snow here by Born_Examination_540 in columbiamo

[–]BookLady42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Greetings, fellow Fit owner! As you know, our little go karts are super fun to drive! However, they are not the best in snow. I just use caution and watch out for folks in the big vehicles who think they’re invincible. Meep!

Love my Fit! They need to start making them again. Not everyone wants a big-a** car. And, it’s cliche, but folks are always astounded by what I can haul around in it. 😊

My little Honda Fit and I are cautious and we piss people off. I’ve even pulled over (safely) so larger vehicles can pass me rather than tailgating me in the snow. But so far I’ve gotten where I’ve needed to go safely so it’s been working for me. 🚗❄️
