I've been trying to find a photo of my car, but there isn't one. Why?? Because my little car is now nearly dead. [I hope you have a sense of humor here. How else do you announce that your car has just stopped running?] I was turning a corner and the poor thing just made awful clanky sounds, and tried and tried to keep moving, but it just couldn't make it any further. We had it towed to the Mechanic Hospital. They called today and said it doesn't look good....the motor is completely gone and the car is old enough that it probably will just continue to fall apart. So, Papabear thinks we should just empty the trunk and let it go. sniff..... I've had my little green Escort for about 8 years now and it has been a good car. I'm going to miss it, and I don't want to buy a new car. Oh well. Pardon my maudlin silliness....but honestly, I needed a new blog on here, anyway.

It IS sad. I get quite attached to non-living things. They do have some sort of soul or something! And, you spent a lot of time with that car. We've had some of our best conversations in it!
