Goodbye to our Jeep Wrangler...

Today we are selling my companion and "friend" of the last year and a half, my dear Jeepie. It makes sense financially, and while we hate to do it, it's a task that needs doing. Sadly. Thankfully, we will not lose any money and will have many precious memories to keep.

This is really hard for me (who says a girl can't love her ride???) and yes, I have cried over it. See, way back in Jr. High I made a friend (a senior in high school, no less!) who had a Jeep. He drove me and some of my friends all over the countryside during summer vacation. I vowed that I would have a Jeep of my own when I "grew up". After some real arm wrestling with DH, 28 years later (though still not "grown up") I finally achieved my hearts desire. Turns out that he's a Jeep lover now too. Not only does he love having lots of fun with it but those Wranglers hold their value extremely well--a plus for any deal-loving man!! I'm so happy that we agree on something that means so much to me!! Hopefully it will not be long until we can buy another one--our goal is to be able to pay cash rather than to accumulate more debt.

So long dear friend!!
