Just wanted to give you an update....Hubby is still practicing again, love it!
I am holding off in buying a new car.
(they told me they would give me $1K trade in value, it is worth more than that!)
I will just run this car as long as I can and replace the battery pack as I need to. Once it finally dies completely it will run on gasoline only and I will see what kind of gas mileage I get and decide then if we want to spend an extra 2K to replace the battery pack. It is a hybrid honda with only 100K miles on it so it should last a good bit longer. The thing is they stopped making this insight years ago so parts will be harder to find as it gets older. It is a 2002.
I love this car. As a trade in I drove a CRX model, which was just like the interior of this car so I was used to driving it immediately. What I would really like to have is an old CRX that has been fixed up! Maybe I could start looking for one? They stopped making them in 1991(I think).
Anyway
I finally made it to the gym last night
walked a 5K at 3 MPH for 64 minutes, feet hurt and the only reason I stuck it out was because I was watching the movie: ghost busters 2 silly movie! but kept me entertained for an hour while I ignored my feet and back that were starting to ache.
I weighed 140 this morning! I have more than 5 pounds of belly fat so maybe i need to adjust my goal weight of 135.
193 alcohol free days. this is the longest I have gone with out alcohol in I can't even remember when. I have taken breaks in the past but never over 90 days so this is amazing to me. I could not have done it with out your support. So thank you my friends!
