After months and months of research and agonizing stress, we have finally purchased the second car for the family: a 2006 Honda CRX (and some other letters that I can no remember). To fully understand my excitement let me tell you my schedule from last Tuesday when I need it the car for some doctors appointments:
8:00am drive Alan to work in Smithfield (no public transportation there!)
8:30am get lost on the way back home (of course I did not plug in the GPS!)
9:30am getting to the dentist
11:30am back home
1:00pm drive Chloe to the pedi appointment
2:00pm get back home
5:30pm get back in the car and drive back to Smithfield to pick Alan up!
6:00pm arrive in Smithfield and wait for Alan
6:30pm driving back from Smithfield to Attleboro!
So, yeah, that day I felt that all I did was drive people around. Which I did!
Now that we finally have a second car I can plan to do and do grocery shopping on a Friday at 11am without having to think if the driving to and from Smithfield 4 times is worth the trip to Stop and Shop! Not to mention that now there is no need for several separate trips to the grocery store and to BJs. Honda's storage space is enormous (compared to what we have in the Ford) and I can still have my mom and C riding comfortably in the back!
And, since everyone asks me this: No, I do not care which one of the cars I get to drive. For all I care I could drive a bucket of bolts as long as I can do my thing... Though it will be nice to drive the Honda every once in a while.
