For what is most likely the first time in my, I did something sensible. I sold the Land Rover and got a Ford Focus instead. It would be a very good idea if everyone refrains from expressing sympathy for the loss of the jeep. I'll get over it in my own good time. Not only will I get over it, IT WILL RETURN TO ME AGAIN. As soon as my hip is sorted and I'll be able to drive it without going cross eyed from pain after 15 miles. And you can take that to the bank.
There is now a nice Ford Focus sitting in my parking space. Believe it or not, O passed up a purple Peugeot for it. I'll always take a Ford over just about anything else. We managed to get most of my stickers off the jeep and onto the Focus. The ones that didn't come off weren't the important ones. My Wales sticker is in place as is the most important one, Maine Guides Know the Way and the mean looking gimp in a wheely holding two cannons that says" Tested negative for patience. Leave 8 feet to get wheel chair out" It has a Sony CD player and Don McClean is already in it and I even figured out how to turn it on. We're putting my phones in on Sunday and finishing up the paperwork on Monday. I quite like the Focus. It's a pretty car and drives very nicely. I'm sure that when I get the seat adjusted better it will be a joy to drive. I took it up to Safad this morning and hurt a lot less to drive than I thought it. It will always hurt to drive until we get my hip sorted. I'm thankful that I could get the Ford and not some rice burning Asian car. I really really don't like then, and I am a Ford gal, after all.
It's still a kick in the gut when I go out and the Disco isn't there, but it will be one day.
So, please, just leave me alone and let me get used to having done two sensible things in one day! It won't be easy, but I'll get there. Any awww Franne comments will not be answered.
