New Wheels

Yes, it's official: I drive a soccer mom minivan. I love it! It's a 2008 Kia Sedona, with 36k miles on it, plus a great warranty. No huge bells and whistles on it, but for us it is heaven. Our air conditioner in the previous car we owned stopped really working long ago, and we only had a tape deck. Our old car had windows that were either bolted into place or were kept in place by a rubber door stopper. We now get SUPER cold air, a CD player, and windows that roll down! I have to admit, I will miss the stares at the drive thru when I'd open my door to pay and get our food instead of rolling down my windows, but I think I can deal with it. Thank you IRS for your goodwill, and thank you to all the rich for giving us such a nice tax return. I promise I'm not a socialist.

Much nicer than our Kia (which is a diesel, seats 9, and has a radio/CD player that gets disconnected when we go over bumps), but isn't it nice to have something that REALLY fits your family and runs? So happy for you!
