Buy my car

Ever noticed how cars take up a lot of garage space?
It's annoying. So I'm selling mine.

It's time to say goodbye to ol' Blue.
She has served me well - taking me to school when I was too lazy/late to walk, transporting me to stores when I had to purchase more than I could carry on my bike... and that's about it.

Oh - I think it took me to Grandma's house in Bountiful a few times. That's why there's only 91,000 miles on this 1991 gem!

It never had a mechanical issue (besides that one time I had to replace the battery after leaving the lights on - whoops). It gets a sweet 35 MPG. Awesome Hawaiian seat covers can be thrown in if I feel nice. Neil Diamond bumper sticker on the back (thanks, Lindsay and Mere) is complimentary.

Amy Hunter said...: Chels, you are hilarious. I love you. So, I found the Pez tins at a random little store called "Flags and Stuff." It's something like 276 N. University Ave. It really is a store full of flags and stuff. Quite quirky! They have some awesome tins. I had a hard time deciding which ones to buy. I would love to see your collection someday!

As for your car, I wish my little brothers could afford it right now. They just started saving for a car. The Neil Diamond sticker is what would sell me on it! Sweet Caroline, bum, bum, bum.; January 18, 2009 at 8:03 PM
Carrie J. said...: Tell me more about the Neil Diamond sticker. This is a major selling feature. Is it appropiately aged and faded? Is it influenced by America, I'm a Believer, Cherry,Cherry or one of Neil's other numerous hits. .....Do you see the damage my dad did to me as a kid? I shouldn't be able to rattle these songs off the top of my head. Sadly the lyrics come with the titles.; January 18, 2009 at 10:29 PM

chelsea mckell said...: In response to y'all's responses:
Amy Hunter- My wife is a crazy fan over NEAL DIAMOND....Imagine a whole house full of Neal lovers it is kind of wierd, (to each his own.)
Carrie- I think Bob Marley would be a bigger hit and some eco friendly stickers, although I think green friendly, global warming, and organic food are all marketing scams lots of money being invested in those things now.
Jules-
Sold the Car 1200 no insurance expired tags and all, I was nervous when I moved the car out of the garage I went to clean, before that I stopped at a philipps 66 near our house to put washer fluid in there, 4.75 for washer fluid, didn't buy it, saw cop parked accross the street waited 10 mins before he left then I cleaned it. We missed y'all too, you will have to come vacation in Vernal.
ValMike-My thoughts exactly.

To you all--Blogging is kind of fun maybe I will try it again in another month or two---Brian (Chelsea's Husband).; January 22, 2009 at 6:23 PM

Quotes I want to remember

"The Lord knows our bearing capacity, both as to coping and to comprehending, and He will not give us more to bear than we can manage at the moment, though to us it may seem otherwise. Just as no temptations will come to us from which we cannot escape or which we cannot bear, we will not be given more trials than we can sustain."
- Neal A. Maxwell

"It is a fundamental truth that the responsibilities of motherhood cannot be successfully delegated. No, not to day-care centers, not to schools, not to nurseries, not to babysitters. We become enamored with men's theories such as the idea of preschool training outside the home for young children. Not only does this put added pressure on the budget, but it places young children in an environment away from mother's influence."
-Ezra Taft Benson

“Perhaps there has never been a time when we had greater need to pray and to teach our family members to pray. Prayer is a defense against temptation. It is through earnest and heartfelt prayer that we can receive the needed blessings and the support required to make our way in this sometimes difficult and challenging journey we call mortality.”
-Thomas S. Monson

“Live the gospel as conspicuously as you can. Keep the covenants your children know you have made. And bear your testimony! Don’t just assume your children will somehow get the drift of your beliefs on their own.
-Jeffrey R. Holland

"We hold in our arms the rising generation. They come to this earth with important responsibilities and great spiritual capacities. We cannot be casual in how we prepare them. Our challenge as parents and teachers is not to create a spiritual core in their souls but rather to fan the flame of their spiritual core already aglow with the fire of their premortal faith."
-Neil L. Andersen

"Certainly there are times when getting the family together to read the scriptures does not stack up as a spiritual experience worthy of a journal entry. But we must not be deterred. There are special times when the spirit of a son or daughter is just right and the power of these great scriptures goes down into their heart like fire. As we honor our Heavenly Father in our homes, He will honor our efforts."
-Neil L. Andersen

President Hinckley admonished both men and women to be nurturers. He said, ‘How much more beautiful would be the society in which we live if every father . . . and . . . mother regarded [their] children . . . as gifts from the God of heaven . . . and brought them up with true affection in the wisdom and admonition of the Lord.’ ”
-Susan W. Tanner

"Children are like trees. When they are young, their lives can be shaped and directed, usually with ever so little effort. Said the writer of Proverbs, 'Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it' (22:6). That training finds its roots in the home. There will be little of help from other sources. Do not depend on government to help in this darkening situation. Barbara Bush, wife of former U.S. president George Bush, spoke wisely: 'Your success as a family, our success as society, depends not on what happens at the White House, but on what happens inside your house.' "
-Gordon B. Hinckley

“I give counsel to husbands and wives. Pray for the love which allows you to see the good in your companion. Pray for the love that makes weaknesses and mistakes seem small. Pray for the love to make your companion’s joy your own. Pray for the love to want to lessen the load and soften the sorrows of your companion.”
-Henry B. Eyring

“Reverent behavior is not a natural tendency for most children. It is a quality that is taught by parents and leaders through example and training. But remember, if reverence is rooted in love, so is the teaching of it. Harshness in our training begets resentment, not reverence.”
-Margaret S. Lifferth

"There is no one perfect way to be a good mother. Each situation is unique. Each mother has different challenges, different skills and abilities, and certainly different children. What matters is that a mother loves her children deeply and, in keeping with the devotion she has for God and her husband, prioritizes them above all else."
- M. Russell Ballard

“As parents, we should remember that our lives may be the book from the family library which the children most treasure. Are our examples worthy of emulation? Do we live in such a way that a son or a daughter may say, ‘I want to follow my dad,’ or ‘I want to be like my mother’?”
-Thomas S. Monson

“Security for our families comes from learning self-control, avoiding the excesses of this world, and being temperate in all things.”
-Kent D. Watson
