BIG tires to fill..
Well I did it! I finally bit the bullet and bought a new car! In a prior post I discussed how I needed a new vehicle and my hesitation to let go of my baby. My old car was 13 years old and looking pretty shabby but it’s such a great car! But after an afternoon drive we found a car that we just couldn’t turn down. It’s exactly what my husband and I were looking for plus more! It is fully loaded and it was an unbelievable price! I had all intentions of holding on to my car and running it until the poor thing wouldn’t go anymore, but we both realized that being stuck in the winter time with a car that doesn’t work and trying to find a great deal may not be the best idea. So with a car and deal we couldn’t pass up it’s now ours! Even though the new car is really nice I still have these pangs of guilt that I just left my old car high and dry……Why must I get attached to everything?? I want to find a new home for the old car which we lovingly call “The Green Monster”. It’s such a good car that I want find someone else who can use it. When I first bought “The Green Monster” I stopped at Pep Boys for something (the guys there were always so good to me) and they came out to admire the shiny new SUV and one of the guys asked if I had put a dollar in the glove compartment. I had no clue what he was talking about and he said you have to put a dollar in the glove compartment for good luck. He then took a dollar out of his wallet and put it in my glove compartment and it’s been there ever since! First thing I did once I got the new car home was find that dollar bill and put it in the glove compartment. I just hope this car treats me as well as the old green monster did. It has some big tires to fill!
