The Honda


Adam was in a car accident two weeks ago. Adam is fine – not a scratch on him. Today, we are mailing in the keys & title to the insurance company because they have deemed the car “totaled”. The car, well, the car lost it’s bumpers… among other things.

The sad part about all of this is Adam got that car right after we met each other 9 years ago. (Is that possible? We’ve known each other for 9 years; will be married 7 years this summer?) We dated in that car. We drove from San Diego to Oregon to get married in that car. We drove from Oregon to Maine in that car. That car holds the physical memory of our entire relationship together.

We always referred to Adam’s car as “The Honda”. When I got a Honda CR-V last year, we still referred to his car as “The Honda”. Today is a sad day. The Honda is no longer. It was so official last night when I pulled the title, and sealed it into the envelop State Farm sent us.

The happy part is we have found a great car to replace The Honda. But still, we will miss The Honda.

Peace & Blessings!
