Colonel Mustard and the Cube

Posted by rufeo on Aug 25, 2009 in Life |

The movie “Cars” is one of Melissa’s favorites; however her auntie seems to be having the worst time with vehicles right now.¬† :(

As you already know I went mattress surfing a few weeks ago; as a result my beautiful Malibu was totaled.¬† I got a rental car that was totally sweet (2008 Malibu) but had to return it when I went home on vacation.¬† I am now the not-so-proud-owner of a GOLD!!!! ford focus.¬† I am very greatful that God has provided a car for me… but does it really have to be gold?¬† I refer to my car (actually its Daniel’s car) as Colonel Mustard.

Well the other day I was once again about to go visit James and Renae.¬† I was driving around the block at the dorm when I got a flat tire.¬† That did it!¬† I was in tears over a silly car!¬† Thankfully Mr. and Mrs. Wilson came to my rescue and helped me take care of the Colonel. The Wilson’s vehicles are currently acting up on them so they were in a rental vehicle (the Cube). And yes, i got to ride in it when we went to walmart to get a new tire.¬† The Cube is truly a unique car.

I never made it to James and Renae’s.¬† But I am very greatful to people like the Wilsons who are willing to help me… and sometimes spoil me.

See, I told you going to visit James and Renae was dangerous. ;) jk
I’m glad at least YOU are okay. I remember us talking about your guardian angel, and Hannah’s guardian angel, but I don’t remember what we concluded… Anyways, neither one of them is doing his job, that’s for sure! :)

What is wrong with a car being Gold?? And as the proud “owner” of the car I do not think the car should be called Colonel Mustard, because for one thing it isn’t even a mustard color….whatever….at least you are O.K.

I am glad my parents take care of you when we can’t. :)

Hmmm…I don’t care what Daniel says, I think Colonel Mustard is a great name for a gold car. Sorry about the flat. :(

I have to agree that Colonel Mustard is a PERFECT name for Daniel/Ruth’s car. I have found out in the last couple of weeks that the Lord has a sense of humor. He provided you with a car but decided to make it a very lovely GOLD color so you could appreciate it even more :)
