New To Me Car...

My Cavalier is getting pretty janky. This last week after work it overheated, blew a fuse and started spraying coolant all over the place causing stream to seep out of the bottom of my hood. We replaced the fuse and hoped that it would be alright. I barely made it to Auto Zone the next morning before my coolant light went off, not surprisingly since I was there to get coolant. After that it overheated again on my way home...All this is a long way of saying that the decision was made to get me a new car.

Last night after weeks of searching online and some serious loan drama Nick and I headed off to look at a car that we both liked and thought was a great deal. I ended up driving my husband crazy and loving the car! We got a 2001 Toyota Highlander 4x4. I still love it after driving it around all day today and am excited for the little extra love Nick plans to give it. I still feel a little bit like it's a rental car but after we donate the Cavalier I think it will sink in more. It'll be weird to not drive around a Teal Cavalier. :)


This is it!



It doesn't have the money sticker anymore...
