Anyone else ever cry when they sell a car?
'Cos I totally did.
Yep. Even though this car and I had a true love/hate relationship over the past two years, I definitely cried as Grandpa Jack (yes, I name my cars) was driven away by his new owner.
When I moved to Germany 2 1/2 years ago, I was super stoked. I'd always wanted to live in Europe and that's what I was doing. I'd wanted to go back to dance and the job I found to keep me in Europe was teaching dance. And I'd wanted a bug since they were re-released in the late '90s... and so I bought one for myself. With a few ups and downs, it was grand.
But now life is becoming a big more fluid and the car had to go. And since I'm a cheeseball, I decided to have a photo shoot with GJ before he drove off into his new life.
Aw, love your car.. so cute!! Great hat as well

Thank you!
DeleteUmmmm, yes, I cry when I turn in a car, give away my sons toys, or throw away the Christmas tree. I actually think there is a name for it. Great post!

Haha! We're all off in the head!
DeleteAww! This is so cute (and so is your outfit)! I have never felt this way about giving up a car before since my previous cars were pretty much bad decisions. But since I'm now driving my very first brand new, off the lot car, I might cry when it's time to give this one up.
ReplyDeleteHaha! This car was kind of a whimsical decision! I can't tell you how many times I had technical issues with it, but still, I cried!
DeleteGreat look!) Awesome pics! www.elationofcreation.com

I loved this car! So sad that he is gone!
DeleteYes...I too have cried when I traded in a vehicle. My sweet blue Jeep Cherokee...oh, did I love her. As I was cleaning her out at the dealership I was totally in tears so I feel your pain. On a brighter note, I absolutely love that jacket! The details are fabulous. And I have almost the exact same booties...I just wore them the other day.

I love this tee. It's made of hemp and has great texture. Also, love the color. I wear it all the time!
DeleteI love bugs always wanted one. My coworker drives a red convertible
ReplyDeleteI love bugs!! My dad would never get me one but I'm still driving the car they got me for my 16th bday!
ReplyDeleteI'd wanted a bug since they came out. I thought about getting one when I lived in the states, but I couldn't afford one. I was so stoked when I found one in Germany.
