if my body was a car

IF MY BODY WAS A CAR If my body was a car, this is the time I would be thinking about trading it in for a newer model. I've got bumps and dents and scratches in my finish and my paint job is getting a little dull, but that's not the worst of it. My fenders are too wide to be considered stylish. They were once as sleek as a little MG; now they look more like an old Buick My seat cushions have split open at the seams. My seats are sagging. Seat belts? I gave up all belts when Krispy Cremes opened a shop in my neighborhood.! Air bag's ?Forget it. The only bags I have these days are under my eyes. Not counting the saddlebags, of course. I have soooooo many miles on my odometer. Sure, I've been many places and seen many things, but when's the last time an appraiser factored life experiences against depreciation? My headlights are out of focus and it's especially hard to see things up close. My traction is not as graceful as it once was. I slip and slide and skid and bump into things even in the best of weather. My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins. It takes me hours to reach my maximum speed. My fuel rate burns inefficiently. But here's the worst of it - almost every time I sneeze, cough or sputter..... either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires

that is too funny!! you know old is in now! We were given one of those mustangs (bright red) for our car rental this week-end. I think it is supposed to look like a 1967 mustang. I'm telling you--people (mostly young people) were pulling up next to us and rolling down their windows and saying nice car. We just said thanks. I think your car looks pretty darn good Joann--any doubts look at the pics of you in that dress. LOL How did your appointments go? My radiator leaks too

Oh yes--I almost forgot--remember when I told you I have an issue with HOT Krispy Kremes? I can resist unless that damn HOT sign is on. We're driving home from the party the other day--the HOT sign is on. STOP I yell to my husband--He screeches the brakes on route one--not really a safe thing to do and we pull in. I get out of the car--debating--should I get one for each of us or one for tonight and one for tomorrow.... Everybody in there is eating HOT donuts. I look at the belt--I watch as the worker put the last one in someone's box and then flips a switch. No more HOT Krispy Kremes. They said it was a 10 minute wait for more. I slinked back out to the car with NOTHING. Saved from damnation by timing! YAY!! Wish I could say my willpower held out--but it was fate instead. PS--I did think about waiting the 10 minutes--but I decided that would be too obsessive.

Cool Joann -- that's a hoot -- of course, all of that was me too before the Plastics Surgery I've just completed -- now, though my body will never again be a a sleek little MG, it is at least more like a good dependable recently refurbished model! By the way, you look awesome! Hugs,
