Here it is….the last of my “to-do’s”! A new for me used Kia Soul. Much much easier
for me to get in and out of. Do not have
to climb UP into it with a stool or squat down to get in and out. The seats are the perfect height to just sit
down. Another great part is I got to
trade in Skip’s truck and my van for an even trade, no money out of my
pocket! All I knew was that I could no
longer drive those 2 big vehicles, and letting them sit was going to be more damaging
over time. Keeping them would have cost me more in maintenance and insurance.
I will confess that letting go of the van was hard and I
cried…so many great memories of all of the art shows we did, all of the places
we went. Spending the night in it with an air mattress when we could not afford
a hotel room. Sometimes it feels like I
am selling, trading and giving away parts of him, parts of our lives and
memories. The changes and decisions are difficult
to make and I am used to having him here to advise me. He always allowed me to make the final call
but I always needed and respected his input.
Making these big decisions on my own is different and challenges my own
self-confidence.
It has been almost 2 months of huge life changes, and I want
desperately for this to be the last big change I have to make. I do not want any more changes.
