Default I now own a car!!!
okay, this is HUGE news for me, so I just kinda wanted to share with someone! husband and I have made do without a car for five years now... we have two small kids and bus everywhere we go, and rent a car once or twice a month for groceries and errands. WE've just been waiting until student loans were paid off (we live well, but didn't want to take on any more debt until that was done) but this offer on our modest dream car was too good to pass up. SO now I can finally DRIVE something. I'm so excited!!!

ETA: Oh - right! The type of car. A 2006 Ford Fusion, fully loaded. I asked my husband what type of car he had seen when he first told me about it a few days ago and he just said - uh, grey, hon. *LOL* Usually all I care about is the colour!

ETA2: And yup, I'll do a layout about it as soon as I have a photo of me IN it!

That's awesome! Congrats!

How do you only go get groceries twice a week? That's impossible!
