Well, now I must survive...I have car payments for 5 years...lol!

I got a new Saturn Aura today...6Cyl, all the trimmings!!

I must say, during my treatment, I was very hesitant about making any long term commitments (except for my beau...it's 16 years, lol!). This is my first...YEA! It feels soooooo good!!

Hugs, Kathi

    Good for you Kathi. It's so nice to see that long-term horizon expand!! I wonder what the price of gas will be in 5 years? ;);)... Enjoy the new wheels!!

    You deserve it. The Aura is a great looking car. My husband works at the plant that makes them (Kansas City, Kansas). If you have any comments on the car (good or bad), Steve will be glad to pass them on.

    I thought from the headline here that you were on a new drug of some kind.
    Glad to hear that you are looking forward to ...
