Well now, person who says you are not careful with money is a fool.

Actually I would go so far as to say you are GOOD with money. Which includes care, but supersedes it, you see.

It's the little things.

On the whole, though, I'd rather have the Volvo. But nobody's ever called me careful with money...

Yes- a new car would be swell- it's the $300+ car payments that keep holding us back. This one was from the same place in Winter Park that our other (nicer) one came from so we know it was pampered.

On the other hand- the ugly brown shelves in my work room are now a gleaming brushed siver!
