The kids just smear their grimy little paws all over them and, frankly, I'd rather spend my time elsewhere!<br /><br />Seriously, though, someone slammed into my minivan in the Target parking lot the other day and skadoodled without a word. I've been traumatized and down on mankind ever since ;) Just kidding, of course, but we seem to be having a rash of bad luck inspired by others' lack of moral character. I won't go there. So my car looks a bit ragged right now. <br /><br />But I'm not getting a new one either.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263995875732832349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444751395260978471.post-62859912079214827372010-08-04T09:32:38.770-04:002010-08-04T09:32:38.770-04:00The last two cars I owned, I drove until they fell...The last two cars I owned, I drove until they fell apart. I've since found leasing to be the most economical choice for me, since when the last car (15 years baby!) finally went, I couldn't afford the payments to buy. Of course that means I always have payments, rather than paying it off, but it works for us for now.Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848143041881649504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444751395260978471.post-53017372041070501002010-08-04T09:23:11.506-04:002010-08-04T09:23:11.506-04:00Love it!

We just spent a pretty penny on a new (and necessary!) a/c unit for our upstairs...and watched our St. Thomas vacation go down the drain in the process. It's all about priorities, isn't it?<br />Have a great day!Heidi @ Decor & Morehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13914552225252918719noreply@blogger.com
