Your First Car

Today at lunch we had a really interesting conversation about our first cars. I am quite proud (not!) of my first car. First, you have to agree to tell me about yours if I tell you about mine. Deal? Good!

My very first car was a 1992 Geo Storm. It was blue, not a pretty blue, but blue. It had a radio that worked some of the time. You had to make sure you turned the volume down while it was working or else when you were driving and it come on you might have a heart attack. It did not have power windows, and the handle to roll the driver side down was stripped so we had a pair of pliers attached at all times. (Redneck much?!)
It had an oil leak somewhere, and somehow it would leak into my front drivers side floor. I could not have regular floor mats. I had to have plastic so it didn't soak thru and get on my clothes. The only good thing was it had a killer air conditioner, it would freeze you to death.

After that car I have had a 2002 Mercury Cougar that I loved, a 2003 Ford Explorer that I grew to hate, and presently my '07 Fusion that I drive like I stole. I love love love my car. Hubby never drives it, but he doesn't complain. He is quite happy with his '03 F-250.

What was your first car? What do you drive now?

What I've Realized....

I saw this on another blog and thought it looked like fun. Now, its your turn to try it. Don't forget to comment so others can see your realizations too...

(all you do it name fifteen things that you have come to realize. It can be lately, or just thoughts you think of as you go... have fun with it!)

I've realized that I have the most horrible road rage imaginable. I was on my way home, and got behind every slow car between here and work. Please stay home tomorrow you slow drivers.

I've realized that You can't make people what you want them to be. You have to accept them for who they are.

I've realized that people love to complain. Why not just be satisfied with the fact that you have a job and just move on.

I've realized that I will never be wealthy but goodness, I would sure like to be comfortable.

I've realized that I am still undecided about children, but everyone thinks that its my turn. Nope... not right now. I love kids, but I am enjoying all the freedom that comes with having friends with them instead of having my own.

I've realized that my doggy has to be the cutest, and the most loving puppy ever.

I've realized that true friends are the ones that know you better than anyone, and no matter the circumstance they like you for you.

I've realized that I have the greatest family ever. I have a rather large one on my mom's side and they are so fun to be around. Lucky me!

I've realized that when I married Hubby I inherited the best sister in law and mother in law ever! My Sister in Law will be 21(!!!) this year and I never thought this day would come. Lucky me to get to know them!

I've realized that I am addicted to Farm town on Facebook.

I've realized that I would love to know how to cook but without a cookbook, I am lost!

I've realized that no matter how long its been, I miss my big brother.

I've realized that I don't have the job that I wanted when I was younger, but I enjoy it. I work with my good friends and that makes it even better.

I've realized that knowing you have that one person you can tell things too, and KNOW they won't judge you or repeat it is a great feeling.

I've realized that the people you thought you would never be friends with when you were younger are so different when they grow up.

I've realized that the people you thought you would have in your life forever aren't always going to be there. Sad truth!

*~* Awards *~*

I was recently given an award by Pam at 30Something. I really appreciate them very much!!




Friends Award:

"These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."


Honest Scrap award:

A) First list 10 honest things about yourself - and make it interesting, even if you have to dig deep!

B) Pass the award on to 7 bloggers that you feel embody the spirit of the Honest Scrap.

10 Things about me:

1. I am an extreme neat freak, to the point that I annoy my husband. I can't even sit and watch tv if I know that the tables around me have the slightest bit of dust but I will let laundry that has to be folded hang out in the basket for days because I hate to fold it!

2. I love to take pictures of people and places to remember the times we have, but I do not like photo's of myself. I rarely tale one that I will let others see.

3. I love colorful socks and often have them for every holiday. I have boxes of them in the basement that I don't even wear.

4. I love purses, and rarely carry the same one twice. I currently have four boxes (4!!) of them in my basement that I will never carry again.

5. I have recently started excersizing using workout video's. I have really began to like it.

6. When I get ready to go somewhere, I have a certain order that I do things in. If I don't do it that way, my day seems to be ruined.

7. I love to travel! I want to be able to retire early and travel. Hubby and I put a lot of our money into our 401k, and I think we are going to regret that. We are currently losing a lot of money right now. Lets hope that it comes back up.

8. My best friend and I will often have the same purse, sometimes in different colors. Isn't it amazing that our tastes are sometimes the same but we are so different.

9. My Husband is from the city and I am from the country. Our families are nothing alike, and have not spoken but very few times. They have nothing in common.

10. Although we have no children, we discuss baby names quite frequently. We have even decided on a few. Don't worry, I have no news to tell you and we are not trying for children. That is a few years into the future.

....and the awards go to....
