If my body were a car, this is the time I would be thinking about trading it in for a newer model. I have bumps and dents and scratches in my finish. Also my paint job is getting a little dull. However, that is not the worst of it.
My fenders are too wide to be considered stylish. They were once as sleek as a little MG; now, they look more like my mother's old Buick.
My seat cushions have split open at the seams. My seats are sagging.
Seat belts? I gave up all belts when Ben & Jerry's opened a shop in my neighborhood.
Air bags? Forget it. The only bags I have these days are under my eyes....not counting the saddlebags, of course.
I have sooooooooo many miles on my odometer. Sure, I have been many places and have seen many things, but when is the last time an appraiser factored life experiences against depreciation?
My head lights are out of focus and it is especially hard to see things up close.
My reaction is not as graceful as it once was. I slip and slide and skid and bump into things even in the best of weather.
My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins. It takes me hours to reach my maximum speed. I am burning fuel at an inefficient rate.
But here is the worst of it......almost every time I sneeze, cough or sputter, I either leak oil or back fire.
I am so ready for a trade in!!!! Anyone know where I can get a good deal?
