Over the past month we have purchased this:
The car is necessary for when I go back to school this fall and I think it was a good purchase. After a bunch of drama, we decided to purchase a new car. I love that is it bigger than our other car. I can get Anna in and out so much easier and we tested out the extra trunk space this past weekend with a trip to Goodwill. On the other hand, ever since purchasing the Lexus, I have become a snob and the Hyundai is no Lexus.
The air conditioner is necessary because ours broke, for the third time since we moved in, right in the middle of the epic/record-breaking/Earth-ending heat wave, while we had company. (Did I mention all while walking barefoot uphill?) Plus, I am now a worried (psycho) mom, so it is even more important that it works.
It sucks spending all that money on two pretty boring purchases but I am thankful that we are able to get the things we need. We will now be watching Netflix and eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the rest of the year.
The car and the a/c unit are a matching set! You sound like me...I always hated spending money on vacuums, washers, dryers, etc. Not fun at all! But, as far as the car goes, you've made a good choice (says Gramps who researched them forever).
