It's easy to drive, gets around great, is a little lower to the ground than some other SUV's (easier for the dog to get in the back in my case) and is a super reliable car.battynursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02240029154165501340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400986193010342577.post-64084241472484440832009-01-06T13:48:00.000-07:002009-01-06T13:48:00.000-07:00I'm really sorry about everything you have been th...I'm really sorry about everything you have been through.

I have had a Toyota Tercel and now I have a Sienna. My parents are huge fans of Toyota-- 2 Camrys, 2 Ravs, 2 Highlanders and 3 Toyota trucks. We have never had a problem with any our Toyotas!!

I got one when DD was a baby, and it's served us well for 7 years.<BR/><BR/>I think you may be a person for whom the seen and the unseen are merged. It's both a gift and a curse. Maybe someone else who has this gift can offer you some guidance. Does that make any sense?Lori Lavender Luzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394441222262940632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400986193010342577.post-71658769000817014322009-01-05T22:16:00.000-07:002009-01-05T22:16:00.000-07:00In the midst of a really tough year, you were able...In the midst of a really tough year, you were able to find some really great things too. I know how hard this can be to do.<BR/><BR/>While we're bashing 2007 and 2008, can we throw 2006 under the bus as well? Here's to hoping for a great year after this streak of ugliness.Lost in Spacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07027117135940864685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400986193010342577.post-60266222027848748592009-01-05T22:04:00.000-07:002009-01-05T22:04:00.000-07:00Yes, my boss did feel really bad, and I'm getting ...Yes, my boss did feel really bad, and I'm getting some of my treatment covered by workman's comp. She now has a policy of not talking to anyone on the cell phone while driving, which I totally support!! She also told me that what struck her was how quick it all happened. That was good feedback for me because I know I couldn't have reacted any quicker.Phoebehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07668069274859889749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400986193010342577.post-79281808345806840132009-01-05T21:36:00.000-07:002009-01-05T21:36:00.000-07:00Sorry to hear about the car accident - and I am gl...Sorry to hear about the car accident - and I am glad you are safe. I hope your boss feels some guilt for distracting and haranguing you while you were driving and also gave you some time to heal and recover. <BR/><BR/>I drive a Honda Accord and think it is safe and stable. Not sure what to recommend if you are looking for a mini SUV type car though. <BR/><BR/>I will join you in happily putting 2008 to bed and hoping for better things in '09. Just a few more days before Obama takes office - things are looking better already!QVChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15146740301388286677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400986193010342577.post-45286008523932903252009-01-05T20:58:00.000-07:002009-01-05T20:58:00.000-07:00Sorry to hear about your accident!

It's kinda hard here in Colorado to find it in a parking lot (they multiply in the rain), but I still love it. It's great on snow, offroad, onroad... And hauls tons of stuff.Denver Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16236286296187463673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400986193010342577.post-65603343852221271982009-01-05T17:17:00.000-07:002009-01-05T17:17:00.000-07:002009 will be better, 2008 was some sorta freak yea...2009 will be better, 2008 was some sorta freak year where we good kind people got screwed by the world, it won't be like that this year (and I'm with ya 2007 not so good either) but we all have to have the downs in order to get those ups.Nadinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08219960725085412879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-400986193010342577.post-16929167934750087682009-01-05T17:12:00.000-07:002009-01-05T17:12:00.000-07:00Don't worry.

Maybe they will charge me double for not having children. C'est la vie.<BR/><BR/>Phoebe is also a pen name, so I don't have to worry about who reads my blog. My real name is Iva Hadanufwiddis.

Be careful of who reads your blog too, I wouldn't want your insurance company reading this blog and then doing something to your rates. <BR/><BR/>My 2008 sucked big time.
