I just bought a car!
« on: May 12, 2007, 10:01:29 PM »
on my own, with my own credit rating paid for with money I earn myself!

I have achieved some financial independence at last!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The nicest thing was the Mexican sales guy, I talked to him and he was so helpful, so kind.

Then my ex said 'you bring out the best in people...'

( not in him unfortunately )

I feel tearful, it's a long way from dependent woman with no green card or SSN etc...

Write,

I do get it!  You are feeling powerful and I am so proud of you.  Isn't it funny how a small step like this can propel you so far forward? 

I can't tell you how thrilled I am for you!

WRITE,

I'm happy for you!  The salesman and the car.   Signal one,  not everyone is mean.  Signal two, you have power to go, go, go, not just in highway miles, but in lifemiles steering your path with the help of G_d!

It really was a G_d thing too yesterday, the whole day.

Everything pointed the way I should go in work, church, family, even to buying this car.

The salesman watched me drive away looking very happy, I gave him a hug and he said 'God bless you'.

There are good people and there are people who have issues.

I love my new little car, it's a symbol of my new little life!

Thanks for all of your understanding what it means to me. And the support to get to this point...

I hope you really enjoy driving your 'new little car'! What colour is it (bit of a girly thing to ask, but I'm not a bloke, so I'm not interested in the engine size, or whatever, but the *colour*...very important!)
