She's Out of My Life...

The Vette is gone.  :*(  It got picked up yesterday.  I admit I fought off tears a bit as I walked away.  One of the things I've learned about my sensitivity is that, for better or for worse, I get attached to people and things and the vette was no exception.  Although I'm going to miss the car, what I'm mostly bummed about is that getting this car always represented a milestone in my life financially and selling it feels like a step backwards (even though, it's a huge step forwards in terms of debt reduction and positioning me for future growth).  My Corvette and I always had a bond of sorts and I've not been able to get that going with the Camry.  I love the Camry, but it's "just a car" where the Vette felt like more than a car to me.  Hell I'm still emotional about the Vette I sold to my mom and stepdad.  My only comfort there comes from the fact that my stepdad is in love with the car now and takes excellent care of it.  Plus I love the fact that it's still in the family.  

Like I said in an earlier post, I can't shake the feeling that the universe is wanting me to let go of these things to make room for new and better people and things.  So I'm doing my part.  Goodbye to my baby, may you be cared for by someone else who really appreciates Corvettes and takes good care of you.
