After
2 ½ months, I finally had all the documents necessary to consolidate our
vehicles into one! The first week of January, my dad and I had gone shopping
for cars. We had the deal ready to close but unfortunately nothing could be
done officially because Michael’s name was the only one listed on the Mustang
and it had credit life on it. All that simply meant I had to wait for the
insurance company to pay off the car, the bank to send the title, then to get
the car retitled in my name and wait to receive the title in the mail. Each step
seemed to take forever!
Now it’s finally done! Now let the shopping begin!
I incorrectly assumed that we would head directly
back to the dealer we had the almost deal at but Dad felt it was best to check
out other dealers first, just in case they had something better. After some
truly interesting stops, which included “L-o-ret-ta” with the tobacco stained
front tooth, we went back to Daryl. Or as he’s known around our house “Daryl
and my other brother Daryl.” (Sorry for the 80’s reference there!)Success was
achieved again! They had another car similar to the one we saw two months ago
and we made the same deal as before. As we were working on the deal, I turned
and looked up on the wall and saw a sort of timeline of Toyotas. The second one
was a Land Cruiser similar to ours and it was another sign that I was making a
good decision that Michael would be proud of. I keep my head pointed in the
direction of making Michael proud of me and I can’t go wrong! Bobby even said
that he thought Daddy would be proud of me! Remembering his wonderful cheerful
words even now, bring tears to my eyes it’s one of those moments that tickles
the heart and makes you proud to call him your son. His daddy would be proud of
him too! Another great weekend!
