I had to laugh at your 3 point turn comment. I learned to drive on a 1977 ford ltd station wagon. I parallel parked it on the first try but never did manage a perfect 3 point turn. Fortunately the tester was still so awed by my parking he let it slide.

Some good comments there :-)
I haven't had a car since the early 1980s. But then again, you can get round most places in the UK without one.

I have yet to get my license. But we have a Jeep Liberty. I do NOT look forward to driving it.

You took your drivers' test in a car that big? You are a brave, brave woman.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog and commenting on my rant, LOL. I don't know what's getting into me lately; I wonder if it's hormonal??? I don't think about it much and the next thing I know I'm practically in tears which is strange for me. I'm not a weepy woman.

Anyways, your comment was so brave. Just writing that post really challenged me and I doubt that really showed in the words if you KWIM! I pray that I that God would give me the strength to make the same offer.

Thank you for stopping by my blog!

That's a lot of cars :) I've only owned/driven five, counting hubbys. I still miss my bright pink sunfire, that gave out on me after 175k miles!!

A very clever TT! My first car was a dark green 1969 Mustang - I really loved that car, and wish I still had it. It was new, and I paid for every penny - it cost $3600 and I could fill it for $10! That's how old I am!

YOur last post - I hope you're feeling better. Hormones can really make us crazy!

LOL a Gal after my own heart. Trucks, 60's and 70's muscle cars. and a John Deere! Did you know I was an auto mechanic for 5 years before I joined the Corps and started working on jets? I REALLY miss working on 60's and 70's Chevy 350's....I need to get one, one day!
