THE STORY OF FLOYD

WOW, HOW UGLY BEFORE I HAD A FRONT LAWN!....
A FRIVOLOUS TOPIC BUT MEANINGFUL TO US! FLOYD....FLOYD IS/WAS OUR CAR....YES, I USUALLY NAME MY CARS AS THEY OFTEN HAVE A PERSONALITY ALL THEIR OWN. WHEN EARL AND I GOT MARRIED ONLY A FEW MONTHS LATER WE BOUGHT FLOYD. HE WAS SHINY AND NEW AND YOU MUST NEVER EVER! PARK CLOSE TO HIM OR RISK A FLOGGING!  HE WAS UNDERCOATED, 3M'ED,POLISHED, TINTED, SCOTCH GUARDED, AND ANY OTHER GUARDED THAT WAS AVAILABLE TO MANKIND!  YOU MUST WIPE YOUR FEET BEFORE ENTERING AND DON'T EVEN THINK OF EATING NEAR LET ALONE IN THE VEHICLE!  YOU GET THE PICTURE...WE HAD NEVER HAD SOMETHING LIKE HIM!

ALMOST 13 YEARS LATER, I CAN SAY THAT THE STANDARDS DIDN'T REALLY CHANGE AND FLOYD LOOKED PRETTY CLOSE TO HIS ORIGINAL SHINY SELF. YOU COULD STILL BE FLOGGED IF YOU VENTURED TOO CLOSE BY MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER!  IT WAS/STILL THE COOLEST INTREPID IN TOWN. IN FACT, WHEN WE MOVED OUT WEST AND TOOK IT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE, THE PEOPLE AT THE DEALER (FLOYD MUST ALWAYS ONLY GO TO THE DEALER) SAID, "OH, SO NOW WE KNOW WHO HAS THAT INTREPID! WE HAVE SEEN IT AROUND AND IT IS A REALLY COOL ONE!" OF COURSE THE HUMBLE REPLY FROM MY OTHER HALF WAS "WE KNOW!"........

ANYWAY, THIS PAST WEEK WE HAVE SOLD OUR FLOYD AND BOUGHT A NEW CAR. AFTER 13 YEARS WE THOUGHT IT WAS TIME. WE MISS HIM AS HE REPRESENTS A LOT OF MEMORIES AND LIFE CHANGES FOR US. THANKFUL TO THE LORD FOR ALL THE DIRECTION IN OUR LIVES AND THE BLESSINGS ALONG THE WAY. A GOOD CAR IS A BLESSING!

SO NOW ITS............(NAME TO BE DETERMINED) THE OTHER HALF IS PULLING FOR EDGAR.....HE DOESN'T REALIZE HIS VOTE IS NULL AND VOID!

SO, THE RULES STILL APPLY AND THE ENSUING FLOGGING WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT SHOULD ANY BE BROKEN!
SILLY BLOG POST I KNOW BUT IT IS MAINLY FOR EARL , SABRINA, AND ME!   WE ARE SAD!
