That's right! We did the paperwork on the new car today so all we have to do to drive it home is bring them our down payment and leave Beatrice *sob*. We've got the $$ now hubby has to get the bank check on Thursday so we can get the car Friday night or Saturday morning! Since I have to work Friday night, and I imagine as the primary owner I'll have some paperwork to sign, then I guess we'll have to do it Saturday morning before we go to Heidi's house. It's her son's sixth birthday party and we've never missed a birthday so we're not about to start now! Hubby is still a little bit on the fence about committing ourselves to a car payment at this point in our lives. You know, broke and practically living off my Dad. In any case, we really don't have a choice. A new car payment every month or $2 to $5k per year to maintain a car that is literally falling apart around my ears. Plus we're going from two beat up cars to one brand new one. Hopefully the car insurance will balance out.
On the knitting front, I've started my first sock...yup, you got it. The dreaded socks. I've got about an inch done and it's a tad frustrating! The needles are tiny and the yarn tinier. I don't know how people get addicted to the small stuff. I should have started with a pair of worsted weight socks. In any case, this is my attempt at knitting fearlessly! I'll hopefully add in a sweater at some point!
Well it's late and hubby wants to check his email so I'll sign off for now. Wish us luck with the purchase of the new car! I'm also trying to think what I'll name her. I think I'll have to drive her for a little while first then I'll know what kind of personality she has!
Happy Knitting!
