Out With The Old, In With The New

Recently Tim and I decided that we need to reduce our 4 vehicles to 2 as there are only 2 drivers in our little family. We decided that we should sell his motorcycle and truck and my scooter and find vehicles we can both drive.

We listed Tim's motorcycle for sale, however, no one was interested. But a couple weeks ago, Tim attempted to list it again, and within a day or two we sold it. Regardless of what Tim says, I know he was sad to see it go (and I was too...I loved riding with him). The next day we found a '98 Jeep Wrangler for a killer deal and couldn't pass it up. We are now proud owners of a "new to us" Wranger. Though, I will say that my brother, Thomas, seems quite thrilled for us to have one. He owned a Wrangler years ago and I know he misses it, and he will be able to re-live those days vicariously through us.

We now need to: a) Get my car fixed; (it has been broken and sitting all dejected and lonely like in my parents garage; b) Sell Tim's truck and, c) sell my scooter.

My poor car is closer to getting fixed now than it has been in the last 5 months. We FINALLY have the engine all ready to set in, we just need to find some time for Tim and Brad to do so. Am hoping it gets done soon. I want my car back. It'll be like am getting a new car!

I guess with the new year, and the extra cash that the tax return seems to offer, we have the "new to us" car fever. And hopefully, as we attempt to see the truck and the scoot, we'll find others that have the same fever.
