A Woman’s Point of View: The Dog Days of Summer

by Colette Cooley, Cars for Keeps Office Manager

Summers fly by and winters drag. Why is that? I have a theory about that from a woman’s point of view. Winters are cold and silent with the exception of howling winter winds and those pesky ice pellets hitting the window. Then summer comes flowing into our lives with warmth, like embracing arms. The silence of winter turns into bird song, water rippling, leaves rustling and rain whispering on rooftops. The days are long and languid, inviting us outside to read, have picnics, ride our bikes, jog, swim, tend our gardens and to just listen to the sounds of life being created all around us. Summer lifts our spirits and renews our minds.

It can also be really, really hot and muggy, leaving us with delicious problems like how to get that watermelon cold in a hurry, or which bathing suit do I feel like wearing today, or should I go to the beach or the air conditioned mall for the afternoon? Hhhmmmm! Whatever you decide to do, you are going to end up in your car. More decisions. Air conditioning? Windows open, or the top down?

In this age of instant gratification you expect your decision to be carried out with the touch of a button. It would surely spoil your day if you hit that A/C button and get a blast of more hot air in your face, or worse, nothing happens at all. Hopefully this horrible fate never happens to you, but if it does there is a support group to see you through this trauma. Cars For Keeps will correct your unfortunate malfunction quickly and efficiently.

Better yet, at your next oil change, ask us to check your A/C, the windows and make sure that convertible top is performing as it should. Yes, the dog days of summer are upon us and we are so relaxed and laid back that any upset in our lazy days will not be tolerated. So just enjoy.
