I really like that baseball one. Only problem is wouldn't be hard to clean? <br /><br />Sorry about your car :( I know how hard it is when you need to say goodbye.

This isn't the first car we've been given in our life either! And I had forgotten that until right now! This is our third car gift!! WOW!...We're very fortunate to have surrounded ourselves with people who don't give the word 'friendship' just lip service. We love them...and would support them the exact same way if given the opportunity. :-] (And we have in the past.)...Thanks for the heads up about the bulbs too! We'll have to look for some brighter ones...while I can still see!

I wouldn't have thought of that as being the reason AT ALL, the headlamp being a hair messer upper I mean!!! ^_^ But I totally get the thing about the car not being a good service car! I had one of those cars years ago too. The back window on the right was the only window that would roll down! Ha! Ha! Oh the hot summers!!! ^_^ I'm glad I don't have that car now!

LOL I'm so vain sometimes!!<br />As for the "booger" car...no emotional attachment there. We traded it in and it ran great! The owner of the lot was thrilled to get it! He had a buyer who was looking for a car exactly like it. We got rid of it because the back windows didn't roll down. Just the vents opened. Not a good car for service.<br />As for the 2 pairs of glasses...one pair are reading glasses. I can't see the holes in my beads without them. In fact I can't buy reading glasses over the counter anymore. They don't make anything stronger than a +400. I need at least a +425 or +450 would be better. My close up vision is gone.

I have one, but fail to use it. You can get them really reasonable at Big Lots if you have one near by. My grandson bought one recently.<br />I'm sorry you had to give up your green car (we had a green car once and my sons lovingly referred to it as the "booger" car!
