As a parent, the worst nightmare imaginable. Was she a believer? I will be in prayer for your dear friend and all she is going through! And I will pray that the Lord will make a way for you and your husband through your car issues! You are right about perspective, it most certainly does help you see how thankful we can choose to be in our circumstances. Blessings and hugs to you dear Debbie! <br />Marilyn @ MountainTopSpicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00600290895531484438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-58848867120413264662016-09-16T22:55:44.073-07:002016-09-16T22:55:44.073-07:00So sorry to hear about your friend's loss.

You can always replace things with monetary value, but you can't replace a human life. That being said, my husband's work car (the car he drives to work and back in) is on its last legs. I'm dreading the day the engine goes.<br /><br />Have a great weekend Debbie!Jessica Jarrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088243667002486509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-27244640955220704282016-09-16T07:46:44.199-07:002016-09-16T07:46:44.199-07:00Thanks SJ.Thanks SJ.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-11076959864386271132016-09-16T07:46:26.472-07:002016-09-16T07:46:26.472-07:00Thank you.Thank you.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-2840547681985934942016-09-15T12:01:03.680-07:002016-09-15T12:01:03.680-07:00I am so sorry for what your friend is going throug...I am so sorry for what your friend is going through.

I appreciate your thoughts for Edwina and I know she feels all the love, prayers and support for her and her family. <br /><br />My husband works the graveyard shift so the car is mine during the day. If I need to be somewhere and he is delayed, I can always borrow my friend's extra car if I need to go somewhere out of town. Luckily I can walk anywhere I need to in our small town. :)Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-15763280961474706062016-09-14T14:10:15.222-07:002016-09-14T14:10:15.222-07:00I'm so sorry!

I often tell my husband that I'm going to get rid of the car and just use the public transit. Just think of the money we'd save.

Although a one car household is sometimes inconvenient, we should all remember it was the norm 40+ years ago. Also our family was a one car household until 7 years ago. It is sometimes an inconvenience but it is not as awful as many folks imagine it being.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Mrs.BMrs. B, a very peculiar personhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03579160731517930694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-26414238466209027042016-09-14T13:57:16.340-07:002016-09-14T13:57:16.340-07:00It certainly does put things in perspective.
