Fixed window...

My bedroom window was replaced today. It cracked after a neighbor shot it with a BB gun. The whole thing was an accident and she paid for it so it's all good. And we're in the process of selling the Tahoe. *sniff, sniff* Cue the sad music.

I know she's a beauty but let's face facts, I can't afford it anymore. We've got a guy who's getting his financing together so for now, I'm still driving it.

Which is good because my new ride, a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee, is sitting in the garage all torn apart.


What's that you say? You don't see the potential there? I know, I know...it's dirty, it's broken, and it's a little older. BUT, we've already got parts and it's going back together tomorrow. I've already detailed the interior and am waiting for it to roll out of the garage so I can detail the outside. It was cheap, $400. The parts to fix it were another $400. Not bad. Plus I won't have a car payment anymore! Yeah!!

The body is free of dents and the interior's in great shape. The paint could use some help but I've already got an idea for that.

Don't worry folks, by the time Merril and I are done with it, you won't even recognize it. (I love before and after pictures!!)

Well, if you need some other parts, we've got a whole parts jeep in the back...

I can't wait to see the "after" pictures. I'm sure it's gonna be great! Fair thee well, dear tahoe.

I'm sorry to can't keep the tahoe, but I know you will make the cherokee nice. You guys are amazing the way you can fix things (a talent neither me or my husband have). Can't wait to see the after pictures.
