Behind the wheel.

So I happened upon a blog which challenged you to write daily for 30 days.... here 
There are no real rules and I've decided that since today is the 4th I will begin with number 4....


Day 1: Cheese
Day 2: A roadblock
Day 3: They played my song
Day 4: Behind the wheel



Today's theme is behind the wheel.


Wheels.... to me means my new car... I call her sweetie... she is new- a 2012 Chrysler 200 .






She is black like in the pic and has a creamy beige interior- so pretty! She also is loaded! We purchased her @ the end of April b/c my old Jeep Cherokee was getting up there in miles and we needed a car which would be better on gas mileage and would also be more comfortable for long drives. Since it was the end of the month and they needed to make their quota we got a REALLY good deal on her!!! She has a sunroof , blue tooth and Sirius radio!


I feel like I finally have a grown up car-one for me- not for hauling kids around etc.
She is fun to drive and I LOVE her!


My son gave her the ultimate compliment when he said she is "sick" - hubby says since I've lost weight and am now driving a hot car I look even hotter *giggle*- amazing the little things which make you happy!


This is for Day 4 of a challenge 30 Days of Writing started by Nicky and Mike of We Work For Cheese in which several other bloggers and I are participating for the month of June. Today’s prompt was “Behind The Wheel.”

    If you got the "sick" from the kid, you know you made it, right? :)

    Are you sure you aren't driving my old girlfriend?
    She always showed up fully loaded and oddly enough also had a creamy beige interior.

    First off - you are totally cheating by starting on Day 4 and secondly I bet you $10 that you couldn't post everyday until the last day of the month for...um, 10 BuCKS! giggle

    You know I love you - but I don't see this happening. We are still waiting on wedding pics of YOU darling. Hmmmm? What's that? You're too busy? Exactly my point Duke Mom#1! heehee

    Cough up the pics and no one gets hurt. [And I am completely serious about the $10 bet. I will totally pay off if you do it. I like reading your blog THAT much. :)] Hugs to y'all!
