Congratulations on purchasing the new car! You will love it and that new car smell...it's wonderful...isn't it? It was time to get a new one and let's face it, your old car didn't owe you a penny. BTW, what are you going to do w/the old car? Sell it? Keep it as a spare?
I like the idea of getting rebates and that's great! Please be careful driving to the vacation place. I wouldn't worry about what your h thinks about the new car. The only person that you have to worry about is yourself and you know what? I would be smiling each and every time I got in it.
Have fun!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
