Thanks to the generosity of my dad and his wife, this is mine. All mine. Isn't it beautiful? It's a 97 Mercury Sable. If it wasn't raining this morning I would have taken better pictures, but I just had to share. I am so excited! I love driving it, and the kids think it's awesome that they can say, hey mom, let's run to the store, and off we go. I can not tell you how much I am loving my new found independence. I keep saying I feel like a teenager again, and in a lot of ways I do. I am having all of these new experiences, and I love it. Yesterday, I had two different people (who I haven't seen since the split) tell me how happy I look. In fact, one friend who didn't even know about the split said I was glowing, and then she was really dumbfounded when I told her the reason why. I don't know why some people are finding it hard to believe that I am happier than I have been in a long, long time.
Now, if I could just find a job, things would be perfect.

Love your new car! Maybe because I drive one just like it. Mine is green but light green. They are very good cars. It's great that you are so happy.
Hope that job comes along soon Jenn. The car is great. I know the kids love it too.
Congrats! I must have missed it somehow, did you get your license?
Marilyn ~ I got my license last week. I think I announced it on Facebook....are we not friends over there?
YAY!!! Are u driving every where now?!?!?
Congrats on the license and new car. Good vibes coming you way for a new job. Life really is so good and things really do work out. My daughter says 'it all works out in the end.... if it's not working out then it's not the end' :) Good motto to live by. Glad so much happiness is coming your way.
Jenn, how awesome for you! Being the main errand runner in my house, I can't tell you how wonderful it is to have a vehicle of my own. You are going to love the independence it provides! Good luck with it! :)

I don't suppose I should warn you that our car from the fiery depths down below also happens to be a Sable? I hope you have better luck with yours! Congratulations on getting your first car though!!!!
