Meet Petunia

Thursday the dh and I went to a car dealership and purchased an Aveo 5 (Chevy). I am in love! sigh....

It's a small 4 door w/ a hatchback. It looks small from the outside but it doesn't feel small when you're in it. The dh actually gets claustophobic in little tin cans but he was fine in the Aveo. I got a stick cause I love the control it gives you. With a 42 mile round trip 5 days a week, I really need a car that's good on gas and this one gets 35mpg.

We'll see how good she does. I've named her Petunia after my "inner princess". It's her reward for not spending money we needed for the down payment! I guess you could say it's my way of reminding myself that saving money brings good things to us...me and that little child inside that I used to let boss me around. I know that anyone reading this will think I've finally slipped 'round the bend, but hey...if it works who am I to mess with it! ROFLMAO
