Daily Thoughts

Sadie

We did it! We got our new car and her name is Sadie. She is white exterior and black interior and even hands you your seat belt. A very smooth ride, even with me driving.  When I called Randy and told him that I had found a car that I liked, and it was white, he couldn’t believe his ears. I had always said that I would never drive a white car. But…..this one just “touched my heart” and I didn’t even consider the black exterior, which I have always loved. OK, does this mean that I am getting old and preparing for my next car, you know the one: The Crown Victoria or Lincoln,  beige exterior with beige interior, the one that is always parked outside “Cracker Barrel” that has the handicap sticker on the license plate. Oh my goodness, I hope not. I like to think that I am just “broadening my likes” and not getting older. Just because I hit the big 60 last month, I do not want to find out that that beige car is going to begin to look good to me a few years down the road. So is the new love of “white” just an inch closer to beige? Absolutely not! It is just a complete opposite of what I have had the past few years, and it seems to be a little cooler than the black cars we have always driven, and I won’t have to wash it as often. See……there are logical reasons why the color white tugged at  my heart. So get out of my way, I’m hitting the tollway with my foot on the pedal, seeing just how fast I can go through the toll booth in my cute little white sports car…after all, I do have to make it back home in time for “Wheel of Fortune” at 6:30.

One thought on “Sadie

  1. I said the same thing about minivans as you do about the crown victoria or lincoln. Needs precedes desire – unless your desire happens to be more space to haul 2 kids and their junk around.
