A Women’s Point of View: Winter Thoughts

by Colette Cooley, Cars for Keeps Office Manager

The excitement of the holidays is over. Other than looking forward to the first signs of spring (which may be three months away), we find ourselves staring at a long winter of going to work in the dark and coming home in the dark. Or, going through last year’s files to gather all the data together to have our income taxes done. Or - and this is always a favorite - losing that ten pounds you put on over the holidays. Have I cheered you up yet?

All of us at Cars For Keeps understand the “mid-winter” mindset, which is the strong urge to just curl up with a good book in front of the fireplace for the winter. All of nature wants to hibernate when it is cold, right? But, as responsible humans we must attend to those things that need our attention. Your car(s) are one of those things and we will make your experience with us as pleasant as we can while your car is being cared for. From hot coffee for you to the play area for the kids to checking your email on the complimentary computer with Wi-Fi to the baby changing area, we always consider your comfort and convenience.

Consider counter measures to lift your spirits. Take an after dark walk, even if it is only around your back yard. Enjoy those great big snowflakes gently falling or how the snow looks on a moonlit night. Get together with friends/neighbors, build a bonfire and roast some hotdogs. Visit someone who can’t get out and laugh over the silly things both of you have done in your lives. Do whatever it takes to make you smile.
