Out with the old...

Back in 1998 when I got my 2 door Honda Accord, I told myself that I would have it until I was married and having a kid. 10 years ago, I didn't think I would have the car as long as I did, but I did know that it represented my sporty-single years.


I am pleased (and saddened) to announce that we successfully sold it this weekend! We took it in to get detailed and start to focus on getting all the dings fixed when Tim posted to Craigslist. We immediately started getting calls, including from a man in Concord who has been looking for the 4 cylinder that we had for over 9 weeks to get for his son. With the cost of gas increasing, the 4 cylinder appears to have been a hot commodity!! He ended up coming by the detailer and buying it on the spot for a (slightly) discounted rate as he is going to take care of the big dents from my last parking lot fender-bender. We got a great price for the car and are more than thrilled to just have it off our hands - without having to manage all the repairs and love it needed.

As excited as I am about the newest phase of life we are passing into, the sale of this car has always meant for me the transition from my youth - and its with a touch of sadness that I say goodbye to it. What a great car, what a great time of my life... and I am glad I am done with both.
