New Toy


So, for the past month or so (since ken and i have been back) we have been going over the thought of getting a new car. There are various reason for it, primarily- my car is breaking down. We have researched vehicles to see which is most dependable, spacey and budgeted right. I really wanted a truck, not gonna lie. The thought of knowing I would never need to ask anyone for a favor just made me all bubbly and excited. However, Ken kept on insisting in viewing one specific car which he knew I would love. The Honda Fit. Now, i was unsure of it because it looks very small- oh how deceiving. Not small at all. The inside of the car is very roomy my very tall friends such as Darrin and Usman could fit perfectly in the car, I'm sure. Also, it converts literally in almost a flat bed. All of the sits can be laid down making for much space. The miles seem great 35 to the gallon. And it's very highly rated. The price was a little higher than what I would have wished to have payed but it really seemed worth it for what we are paying.

The car will be use mainly for my work. Driving around Seattle in my old Contour was a hassle because my car was starting to run on its last leg. It made me wonder all the time if I was gonna get stuck in the middle of the freeway with my car. My car is a four cylinder car and it's only running on three. It was my first high school car. I am sad to see it go- kind of. hehe.

I know I could have invested 2,000 dollars to get my car fix. I know I could have made it work if I really wanted to but I feel by having this new car, I am forced to 1. maintain a long lasting job.

Long lasting job- speaking of which, the one thing that motivated to get the car was to begin our business. Now I really do not have an excuse such as; i cant go, it's too far, I cant make it... now I can. I have a great husband, great computer (to get the business going), car... and a lot of motivation...

So, kicking 2010 awesomely....
