tell me i shouldn't...


arrrgghh. i FOUND THE CAR I WANT. i had decided to put some $$ in savings, and start shopping next fall. but of course, i shop on the internet all the time.

so, i find this GREAT jeep! i see on the window that it started out in the low 20s, it is marked down to 16,900...AND the dealer will pay for tax and license! book value = over $20,000.

what to do, what to do....

I like it. Very pretty, plus you will never lose a car that color in the snow. Think of the flashy name you can give a car like that! So are you gonna do it?

Bob--That's an awfully big purchase to regret...our family motto is "pray for a day." Commit it to prayer and wait 24 hours.

yes, i know.

i am wondering if the fact that it flashed up today has anything to do with the fact that yesterday i decided to wait til fall.

i have the downpayment NOW, but by then, who knows, i could have a bigger one!

i am pretty sure i should stay away...although, it is similar to what i am hoping to get... :)

sigh.

in other words, no, i am not going to do it...doh.

Karen said...

Pray a day, Bob. Pray a day.

bobbione8y said...

yes :)

i didn't even need to pray a day, i prayed for 37 seconds and got the answer.

ha! Well then, I guess that's that! The cool thing is that you now get to wait in anticipation for the real car, the real blessing that God already has in mind. I can't wait.

yeah...that's it :) i GET to wait. i was looking at it totally the wrong way. he he.

seriously, it is FEBRUARY and cold outside and snowy and gray and i need somethin' - that is about all it is !!

It is beautiful Bobbi, can't blame you for wanting it. But I do think you are being very smart.
