Ever feel like life is lived in stages? I feel that way. You have the stage of HS, then college, living on your own with your first REAL job, relationships, marriage/newleyweds, motherhood ( although you never grow out of this one/ mothering is a life long commitment), raising little ones, then ..... you slowly start to get YOUR identity back.....your not the Mommy.. slowwly you get to complete a project without interuptions from the little ones, then they learn to entertain themselves and form friendships.....
The place I'm going with this is I have been soaking up or embracing a new phase in my life.
Kailtyns in Kindergarden, matt's learning to drive ... and I got a new job!
Yes I got the job I wanted and interviewed for last week. I start tuesday. I am so excited!
It's a tax/accounting software company right here in Tracy. Its 10 minutes from my house.
They offered me great money and is a job that will utilize all my accounting skills. I have been walking on cloud nine since thursday!
With this new phase and after drive Kaitlyn and Matt to school the last two weeks in the Mustang, I was beginning to feel confined and it was a pain to get Kailtyn ina nd out of her car seat in the back of the Mustang. Sooooo..... driving by a car lot on the way to the Mall to get some new clothes for the new job .. this car caught my eye. Last november we test drove one but wasn't ready to let go of the Mustang then... I stopped and test drove the CHarger for 2 hours... I ended up bringin it home for Sean to checkout because its used.. only 9k miles!...
long story short we brought it home last night! I absolutely LOVE it.... its my first Car ( other than the convertiable in almost 10 years! We did the minivans, the jeeps, the suvs ( yes we still have the excursion.. the xlarge SUV) so now I have this beautiful car.. and its so luxurious inside I am sooo lovin it.. gotta get my homework done so we can take a drive .. maybe to the coast or the City, althought the Bay Bridge going into SFO is closed this weekend.....
Will I miss the convertiable? Yes there is a pang in my heart as I drove away... I'm trying to focus on the moonroof, the dvd for Kailtyn and all the room we have to stretch out..... and oh yeah the cooler color here in the 104 temps of late.
And life goes on!
ReplyDeleteLike the looks of the car. Glad you will enjoy it.Good luck on your new job.
Cyndi's on vacation with her in-laws this week at a camp on Merrymeeting Lake.They have a perfect week.We are babysitting one of the dogs.
You traded in a Mustang for a Dodge??? Mustang is the Orignal pony car all the rest are just copy cats! I'd rather eat worms than drive a Dodge. Okay maybe not eat worms...I'm just a little jealous about the Mustang not about the Charger. I am a Ford girl all the way!
