life is a highway and I am on it

You, my dear, are my dearest friend and confidant. I am so glad that you didn’t take offense to what I said, like I said, it wasn’t directed at you, but at the medical association in general.


So a media player is a little tiny box, probably 4x3x2 that read hard drives. You normally plug it into an external hard drive that you have put pictures, music, or movies. It reads theses and is connected to your television so you can see them there. OMG, I have a co worker that had one and he brought it to me to fix, the hard drive was a terabit and had over 1000 movies on it. I took as many movies off of his hard drive that I could, though most of them I already have. The movies are like a digitally copy, but in a different format. It’s pretty amazing.

I was debt free for a few days. Of course, I couldn’t keep it like that, so I went on line and was checking out my credit. It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but it wasn’t truly bad. So then I thought, which I do occasionally, why not see if I can get a new car. So I filled out an application. I fill them out about 1 or 2 times a year. That night (Wednesday)  I dreamed I didn’t get the car, which is no big thing, it’s not like I don’t have cars. So the next day I go to work and I get to thinking, hah, I wonder if my bank would give me a loan for 20,000? So I fill out another application. I get a couple of calls from the dealership where I filled out the application, then I get the call from them that I, in fact, did get the car. OMG OMG OMG, I had an instant heat flash, cuz I have been denied so many times, I wasn’t really thinking I was going to get it. Then an hour later, my bank also approves me for a loan. I couldn’t believe it. This all happened Thursday and I was going to wait till Friday to get the car, but the dealership asked me if I could come that day and pick it up, so I did.

KayKay, it is beautiful! It is a 2010 Ford Focus. Ford because they didn’t not participate in the bailout, they held their own and I applaud that enormously. It had 15 miles on it when I drove it out of the showroom. It is Blue Flame in color. Now some of the things in the car, I really didn’t want, but I had to get this car, cuz it was the cheapest with the four things I did want.

For starters, the wheels are premium, sporty. It has a spoiler on the back, fog lights, remote entry and security system. Power windows and locks, tilt steering wheel, heated leather seats, ambient lighting, cruise control, the cruise control and stereo controls are on the steering wheel. The stereo is premium sound with a huge sub woofer in the trunk, it is 6 cd changer, reads mp3, has sirrus, has a/c, back window defrost, heated mirrors, the mirror in the car changes when it has lights from another car begin hitting it. You can plug a usb port in as well as an mp3 player and two other plug in for additional things. The keys to the ignition are programmable so if you have kids you can program the car to their key to where they can’t go over 80 miles an hour and if they don’t buckle up the stereo stops working, there are other things too. The stereo system is also hooked into “sync” where your cell phone syncs with the stereo and it is all hands free. And then after the lady told me I had the car, she said oh yeah it has a sunroof! I did not know that. It’s an amazing car and I didn’t need half of what it has, but this car is so loaded, it’s not even funny.

Now I can drive down to get my grandson and not worry about breaking down. I also decided to give the KIA to Tata and now the eldest is pissed. I had spoken to them when I gave the eldest the Achieva that this is what was going to happen. But now she wants that car too, stating that she would pay me 1200 for it. I told her no, she started saying how unfair I am ( I have given her over 10000 dollars in cars and money for cars) so I finally said if a car is going to come between us, then the car just came between us and I hung up. I am not going to deal with it.

Well going to fly for now, I have to meet the eldest grandson here very shortly.

I love you more than you will ever know.

Your BBB
