Long time?

Well, I know it has been a long time since I last posted. I guess that is just a sign of how busy I have been. With summer winding down it has been pretty hectic lately. So, as promised I will tell the truck story. It all began about 3-4 months ago. I knew I had to get another truck because of the baby. I have/had an extended cab truck but, their weren't any seats in the back. So, the baby would have to sit in the front. Which neither one of us(my wife and I) were too high on. So, we started looking for another "ride". Well, one day I was browsing Ford's website and came across a Diesel truck that was extended cab and had good miles especially for a diesel. So, I called the dealer that had this truck and the guy said, someone else had put a deposit down on it (he lived in another town about 6-8 hours away and was coming the next day). So, the salesman said he would call me back the next day and let me know what is up. So, he did, and he said that the guy that put the deposit down couldn't come for another day and that if I wanted to come check it out and liked it, it would be mine. He couldn't hold the truck on deposit that long. So, after a long ordeal of getting there. Side note: the truck we had was in my wife's name and so if we traded it in she had to go which meant the baby had to go and my grandather wanted to go and see it too. In case you hadn't figured it out, my old truck only sat 3 people. So, we ended up going in 2 vehicles and my grandmother rode with my wife and daughter. About 2 o'clock we finally left and about 9 o'clock that night we made it back. It was a long day. But, needless to say I am now the proud owner of a Ford F-250 extended cab diesel truck. I love it! So far at least.
This is my last weekend before I start up work again. I have to go back to school and start getting ready for another school year. I have thoroughly enjoyed my summer break. I got a daughter, a new truck and relaxed for what was the longest summer we have had in years(in actual days). So here's to summer 2007 and it's many blessings and fun times. I plan on having a couple more fun times before the weekend is up too! I think I might actually go swimming for the first time all summer too!!! Peace, and see ya around hopefully sooner than my last post.
