Hi Kathy. I might be a topaz by accident. Never thought I was sensible.
If only opals could talk, I guess I'd find out. Until then, no idea.
I disappeared last night and came home with a "new" car. Finally got home about 10:45pm.
I started on Sunday and found a really nice Mercury Mountaineer. The sales lady came with me to the house. Alas, my Mom couldn't get in using the step. It was not good, but the lady saw the issue. And I was late getting home to post. LOL!
Later Sunday night she called and said someone had just traded in a 2012 Subaru Outback...all I saw was dollar signs for 2012, BUT....after FR quit on me at work after the thrad got posted I went down there to see it. It hadn't been cleaned up yet, but it lookedok. Test drive to the house. You should have seen the smile on my Mom's face when she got in and out with almost no help. *sigh* So we all went in and talked about so much more than we thought we wanted to spend, but it seems like all the ducks were lining up and we decided to go for it. (She said my Dad approved.) That will be the last car I need to buy for her. And I will put off even thinking about replacing mine now.
I told them the rate I could get at my Credit Union. I ended up with a better rate, because it was newer, and the financing is at my own Credti Union.
After I got home I worked til midnight cleaning out the suburban. I pick up the new one tomorrow night. d:o)
All in all it just seemed like it was meant to be, and I will have the new one for my Mom's dental appointments on Thursday. I haven't been car shopping in 30 years. My car is a 1984. LOL!
AND...something I never would have bought for myself.....sunroof, HEATED seats, and remote start. d:o)
Garnet Says You Are Powerful |
You are fiery about the things that are important to you. You don't back down, and you don't mind putting your heart on the line. The garnet is known to offer guidance and support when times are tough. You are the rock for your friends. You are particularly adept at figuring out business and financial problems. You have a head for money. You go well with sapphire. When you and a sapphire put your heads together, you are unstoppable. You clash with pearls. You don't really get a pearl's odd ways... and you're not sure you want to! |
You are a truth seeker... no matter what the truth ends up being. You want answers.And you don’t believe in one truth either. The truth is always changing, and that’s part of the journey for you.Sapphires are thought to bring clarity. You are good at clearing the chatter out of your head and focusing on what’s important.You are honest and loyal to your friends. If someone or something is harming your friend, you let your friend know.You go best with topaz. You are both blunt and fiery, but you feel strongly about each other. You can set the world on fire together.You clash with turquoise. You feel like turquoise is too fluttery, and sag thinks you’re too serious. You just don’t mesh.God chose your birthday for a reason. What kind of person are you really?
He chose my birthday because I’m special and Constitution Day is special too!!!
I love me and God and you....all.

Aquamarine Says You Are Brave |
You have a fighter's spirit, but you can also find peace of mind in almost any situation. You only go to battle when forced to. Aquamarine is said to have purifying and cleansing powers. You are good at keeping negative influences out of your life. You are often in a tranquil and meditative state. You see everything around you clearly, and you calmly accept reality. Actually they're wrong! I don't usually accept ANYthing calmly and clearly! LOL! |

Happy belated birthday!
