Just Call Me Mustang Sally.

It has been the most beautiful fall weekend! Today has been the perfect temperature, complimenting the autumn glow, cast on our turning leaves of yellow and orange. What has also "changed" in this fall season, is a new car. What? Yes. A new car. It was time to sell off the Toyota Corolla, and replace it with, none other than, a Ford Mustang. Boy is she pretty. Jeff and I had been car searching/shopping for a couple of weeks, and found an awesome deal, with the Ford Dealership, in Camp Verde. They had an Internet Special going on, and with Jeff's savvy ways and smarts...the deal got even sweeter! Jeff went down Friday (he had a half day), and spent the rest of the day, closing the deal. Let me tell you a little bit about our new pretty Mustang. She is a  2014, V6, Premium coup, with the performance package. All black leather interior, and black exterior, ambient lighting (which I have to say, is my most favorite part about this vehicle)! This ambient lighting, stays lit, for nighttime driving, in the interior, on the floor (front and back), the door handles, and the cup holders. You can change the colors from blue (or as Kent calls it, Luke Skywalker blue, light saber), deep red (that would be Darth Vador's color, of course), an orange glow, that looks like a sunset, purple, ice blue, green,  and white. The kids also love this new car, as we don't go through too many vehicles...so it's a treat for them as well! The one drawback, for me (temporarily), is that this car is a stick shift. I do not drive a stick shift. I have never learned how to drive a stick shift, so this idea really freaks me out! Law-Dog is awesome at driving a stick. The man looks pretty hot behind the wheel, let me tell you. Too much information for ya? Too bad! Ha. Anyway...I had my first driving lesson today, and I was so beyond stressed out, and my hands were literally sweating! My heart was racing, and I was just a nervous ball of energy. Yes, I managed to stall the car a few times, but I did get "the idea" on how to drive this car. I actually managed to drive it down Old Route 66, a ways, before I requested to go back home, to the safe zone. So lesson one...done. I need many more lessons to feel comfortable about this...but Jeff reassures me, that I will learn to drive this car, and one day, it will become second nature to me. Okay then!  Good times.
