My third free Tuesday, and my third major task completed, today we dropped the OBC off at the dismantlers and it is gone from us. I did cry on the way home, I do have such a hard time with endings, and I know it's just a car, but it's the car we chose to protect our babies in. It took us to visit family, it took us to collect berries for jam, it took us to the zoo and habitot, it took us to the beach and carried Christmas trees home for us. We brought the kids' bunk beds home in it and moved to our house from the apartment in it. It even caught fire on a road trip once. We had a great run and great fun with that car, I had no problem selling any other car we've gotten rid of, but this was our first family car, we have grown so much with that car.
So now moving forward, I can see my sorrow at changes and endings but with each end, there is a new beginning and we already have new cars that we enjoy and do a wonderful job. We can use the money we will get from the car to help pay for the horse, which will be a new chapter in the story of our life.
I'm tired and I'm going to bed now. An early night now and again can't hurt!
