My new car!!!

So Walter & I decide to go look at cars yesterday, actually I wanted to look and he agreed. My baby, Wanda the Camry Hybrid, has 90,000 miles in 3 years. I was getting a little anxious about that and since I still had to pay on the car it made me even more nervous. So we went to the Honda dealership b/c they are having some really good rates on cars right now. Well, I didn't like any of the new Hondas. So I started to look at some used cars. I used to have an '05 Accord and really liked it, so I decided to test drive one. Of course the one I wanted to drive was being cleaned...but there was an Acura TL just sitting there. While I waited on the Accord I decided to test drive the Acura. That was all I needed. It is a white one, which I really didn't want, so today Walter and I drove to Charlotte to the Acura dealer. Turns out the color of car that I want doesn't come in the interior color that I want. We spent all day today looking at cars. And what happens??? I end up back at the Honda dealer here in Hickory and we buy the white Acura. You know that the last day of the month is the best day to buy a car, but the last day of the year is even better. The car is so nice. I've named her Minnie Pearl (b/c she has a pearl finish). I am going to miss Wanda (full name: Obe Wanda). She has been such a good car and got great gas mileage. The new car...not so much. But then I'm not driving 100+ miles per day so that may not be that big of a deal. I can't wait to drive to Sparkle City to show the fam. Ok...well Happy New Year to all of you!!! May 2010 bring nothing but happiness, wealth, health, and joy to all of you. Love ya!!!
