It’s been a wild few days. Monday night the fan inside my car squealed. When I turned it off, did class, and got back in the car it started making a horrible noise. It wouldn’t have been too bad, except that it was an hour to drive home.<\/p>\n
As I was driving it dawned on me that I was paying a $500 car payment every month for the past 6 months. Well, that sucks when you are driving a 6 year old car. I’d much rather do that for a new one.<\/p>\n
Got home and husband was playing internet poker and was acting ugly about talking about it. We’ve been married for 20 years and every fight we’ve had was related to cars. Or buying cars. <\/p>\n
So I went to school Tuesday morning and called the local car dealer to school (Troy Aikman Ford), and asked if I could drop it over during my planning period. They said sure. They diagnosed it, but couldn’t repair it then but let me have it back. <\/p>\n
In the meantime, I got from work and Rich had printed out a really nice thing comparing several small trucks. We decided to go look at an HHR. It was TOO small. They also brought out an Equinox which also TOO small.<\/p>\n
So I got my truck back today during my planning period again, and I stopped and talked to the internet sales manager and I looked at a Ford Freestyle. I am pretty convinced that’s the car I want. I may have to wait until Ford has the right incentive though, unless they can find me a 2006.<\/p>\n
However, I did get yesterday’s workout in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
