I have a new car!! Last night, I bought my very first car! I am now the proud owner of a 2010 Sangria Red Ford Escape!
I didn't tell anyone about the possiblilty of getting a new car b/c I wasn't sure it was going to turn out like this. So I kept quiet about it. Here is the deal, we played a game of musical cars. My brother's car (which was my mother's originally) was a 1999 Chevy Cavalier and on its last legs. So we traded in the 99 Cavalier and my brother now has my 2000 Chevy Cavalier. So now I own a SUV, which I've been dreaming about for a few years now- one of my dreams came true!
My Escape has keyless entry (a pointy- clicky thing as I call it)- a first for me, power windows and locks-again a first for me, a sunroof (one of my must haves), solar tinted back windows (standard if you can believe that), and an iPod jack (again standard!). For me this car has everything I wanted. I am shocked that I now own a Ford (after years of badmouthing Ford). I was shocked by the things that are now standard on cars. So the only thing I got on my SUV that isn't standard is the sunroof. I got my SUV at Dave Sinclair Ford- I highly recommend them. They found the red, dark interior, SUV w/ a sunroof- exactly what I wanted. Even tho the day I came out to look, they couldn't find it. They looked for an hour and still no SUV. Apparently my SUV was in the body shop! The mileage on the SUV when I got it was 22.2- 2 is my fave number so I took it as a sign that it was meant to be!
Other relevant news: I got a job!! I work part time (for now, could gain more hrs later) as an Admin Asst at Portafab Corporation in Chesterfield. The company is really good and the employees are awesome. The drive is nice, and I know back roads in case the highways are bad. The back roads mean a longer drive, but its more peaceful.
So far 2010 is appearing to be my year. It is only the 3rd month and I have a job, and a new car. I wonder what else is in store for me this year. I am hopefull that I have more good things coming to me.
