Goodbye old friend...


Tonight we said goodbye to our car of 11 years. It had seen better days, for sure, but it was a good car. I'm always emotional about stuff like this, but even Keith thought about it. This was our first car together. We brought home two of our babies in this car. It was with us in Georgia, Alaska and Tennessee. I'm kind of sad to see it go, even though it was a little frustrating to drive lately. The air conditioning didn't work, which means neither did the defrost. The gas mileage isn't as good as it used to be, and it leaked oil. The lights work about as well as holding a flashlight in front of the car, maybe not that well!! After you turn the car off, it squeals like it took it's last breath. It was pitiful. Farewell friend!

Coming soon: a photo of Keith's new truck.

It was harder than I thought walking away from that car. It will be missed!

I remember going to the mall to get my ear pierced in that car when I was 21. That was before your children and my husband. It was a good one. Farewell!
